March 1997 Micro Linear ML6622* High-Speed Data Quantizer GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ML6622 high-speed data quantizer (post-amplifier) is a low noise, wide-band, BiCMOS monolithic IC designed for high-speed signal recovery applications, such as FDDI, Fast Ethernet, and ATM. An internal DC restoration feedback loop nulls any offset voltage produced in the input stage. The limiting amplifier contributes to a high level of sensitivity and a minimum of duty cycle distortion. The output of the data path is a high-speed comparator with ECL outputs. An enable pin gates the comparator on or off in response to the input signal level or a system control signal. The Link Detect circuit provides an Assert-Deassert function with a user-selectable threshold voltage. This circuit monitors the input signal and provides an ECL High output within 100ms of signal acquisition and an ECL Low output within 350ms of signal loss. The ECL discriminator output can be used to disable the comparator when the signal is below the user-selected threshold. LINKLED drives an LED for a visible indication of the link status.

Micro Linear 3 ML6622 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The ML6622 high speed data quantizer accepts a low level analog signal from a pin diode and transimpedance amp front end and converts it into digital ECL levels for subsequent digital processing. The input signal, from a transimpedance amplifier, is immediately amplified by a two-stage video amplifier. The output of this amplifier feeds two parallel paths. The data path is comprised of a high speed comparator that outputs PECL differential data on the ECL OUT pins. The Link Detection path monitors the magnitude of the amplified input signal, compares it to a user-settable threshold, and provides the result of the comparison as a PECL differential output on the Link pins. The timer following the threshold block is used to set the Link Detect output acquire and deacquire time using a capacitor. AMPLIFIER The amplifier is a two stage video amplifier with a gain of approximately 55V/V. Maximum sensitivity is achieved through the use of the DC restoration feedback loop and AC coupling the input. The AC coupling input capacitors, in conjunction with the input impedance of the amplifier, establish a high pass filter with the lower 3dB point determined by the input resistance and the input coupling capacitors. This cap also adds a secondary pole to the offset loop. Since the amplifier has a differential input, two AC capacitors of equal value are required. If the signal driving the input is single ended, the other coupling capacitor should be tied to VCC . A low-pass filter in the offset loop is created with the capacitor on pin 15 (CAP). The lower 3dB point controlled by a capacitor tied from the CAP pin to VREF as shown in the application circuit. For stability reasons the value of the capacitor on the CAP pin should be 10 times larger than the input coupling capacitors. The 3dB point is given by the following equation: F3dB 1 = 2 x 100k x C COMPARATOR A high speed ECL comparator with PECL outputs is used for the quantization function. The comparator has an Enable input pin which takes an ECL level. This Enable pin is normally driven by LINKLED, which causes the output to be enabled when the link is up and disabled when the link is down. When ENABLE is low the comparator is operational. When ENABLE is high the comparator is disabled causing ECL OUT- to go low and ECL OUT+ to go high. The ENABLE pin can be tied to ground to keep the comparator permanently enabled. LINK DETECT CIRCUIT The Link Detection Circuit is used to accurately measure the input amplitude to determine whether it is large enough to reliably recover the input signal. Once the Bit Error Rate (BER) for the ML6622 receive circuit is determined, the link detect threshold can be set so that the Link Detect Circuit will shut off before the error rate exceeds the link requirement. The Link Detection Circuit consists of three functional blocks; Thresh, Timer, and Link Out. Thresh detects the output of Amp and compares it to a programmable threshold input THIN. As long as the input amptitude is greater than the programmable threshold input, the Link Detect output remains active. When the peak input drops below THIN, Thresh's output changes state and Timer delays the Link Out state change for a programmable amount of time. When using the default CTIME capacitance of 2000pF, the deassert time and the assert time values conform to the ANSI X3.1661990 PMD standard for FDDI. To improve stability, the Link Detect circuit includes 1.7dB of hysteresis. The VREF output can be tied directly to THIN to set the Link Detect threshold. For greater sensitivities, VREF can be divided down before applied to THIN. The formula for the threshold on the thin pin is as follows: Threshold(Assert) = VTHIN 500 VTHIN 750 Although the input is AC coupled, the offset voltage within the amplifier will be present at the amplifier's output. The removal of the dc offset in the amplifier helps the circuit respond to small input voltages, and reduces duty-cycle distortion. In order to reduce this error, a negative feedback loop nulls the offset voltage. An external capacitor connected to the CAP pin is used to store the offset voltage. This voltage is compared to VREF and a difference current proportional to the result is applied to the negative side of the input stage of the AMP circuit block thereby nulling the DC offset.
