DETAILED DESCRIPTION

SLK2511C

The SLK2511C is designed to support OC-48/24/12. The operating data speed can be configured through the

RSEL0 and RSEL1 pins as indicated in Table 2.

The user can also enable the autorate detection circuitry through the AUTO_DETECT pin. The device

automatically detects the OC-N of the data line rate and generates two bits of output to indicate the data rate to

other devices in the system. When using AUTO_DETECT, RSEL0 and RSEL1 need to be set to 00 or be

unconnected.

The SLK2511C has four operational modes controlled by two configuration pins. These operational modes are

listed in Table 4. When the device is put in a certain mode, unused circuit blocks are powered down to conserve

the system power.

While the transceiver mode, transmit only mode, and receive only mode are straightforward, the repeater mode

of operation is shown in Figure 4. The receive serial data is recovered by the extracted clock and it is then sent

back out on the transmit serial outputs. The data eye is open both vertically and horizontally in this process. In

the repeater mode, the user can select to turn on the RX demux function through the RX_MONITOR pin and

allow the parallel data to be presented. This feature enables the repeater device not only to repeat but also to

listen in.
