Each receiver includes a low power, loss-of-signal detector. The loss- of-signal circuit monitors the received data stream and generates a system interrupt when the received signal power falls below a fixed threshold. The threshold is 50 mV p-p diff, referred to the input pins. The LOS circuit monitors the equalized receive wave- form and integrates the rms power of the equalized waveform over a selectable interval of either 2 ns or 10 ns. The detectors are enabled on a per-port basis with Bit 0 of the RXA/B/C LOS control registers (0x51, 0x91, 0xD1). By default, when the receiver detects an LOS event, it squelches its associated transmitter, lowering the output current to submicroamps. This prevents the high gain, wide bandwidth signal path from turning low level system noise on an undriven input pair into a source of hostile crosstalk at the transmitter. The squelch feature can be disabled with Bit 3 of the global squelch control register (0x04). The LOS_INT pin evaluates a logical OR of all LOS status register bits for all enabled receivers (LOS status registers are located at 0x45, 0x85, and 0xC5). The upper two bits in the RXA, RXB, and RXC LOS status registers are sticky, whereas the two LSBs are continuously updated to indicate the instantan- eous status of LOS for an enabled receiver. The sticky bits are cleared by writing 0 to the RXA, RXB, and RXC LOS status registers. The LOS_INT pin remains high after an LOS event until all sticky registers are cleared and all active status registers (for example, Bits[1:0]) read 0. The LOS_INT pin requires that an initialization sequence be enabled (see the Applications Information section). The LOS_INT pin can be used to generate an interrupt for the system control software. In a standard implementation, when LOS_INT goes high, the system software registers the interrupt and polls the RXA, RXB, and RXC LOS status registers to determine which input lost signal and whether the signal has been restored.
