NAME

DESCRIPTION
P1
CODE
Input
(w/pullup)
Encode Enable, When CODE is high, the 8b/10b encoder and decoder are enabled,
provided the CODECENA bit is set, see Table 3-16 and/or Table 3-32. When CODE
is low, the encoder and decoder are disabled, and the Parallel side handles raw 10b
data.
A16, B16, T16, U16
MF[A:D]
PSYNC
Output (MFC Multi-function I/O's, Channels [A:D]. The functions of these pins are enabled via the
and MFD are MDIO. Currently defined functions are:² FIFO_ERR for each channel, for TX, Align
inputs w/pullup and Elasticity FIFOs. LOS (Loss of Signal) for each channel,² RC[A:D]: Recovered
during reset). clock outputs ² COMMA_DET (K28.5 character detected) for each channel, and²
BIST_ERR (Built-In Self Test Pseudo Random Bit Stream Test Status) for each
channel. The default condition for these pins is BIST_ERR. See Table 3-15 and/or
Table 3-33 for further details. MFC and MFD are also used as inputs during reset, to
control the MDIO interface DEVAD value, see Table 3-5.
C1
Input
Channel Synchronization Enable. When PSYNC is high, all transmit data is latched
(w/pulldown) on the rising and falling edges of TCA, all receive data is valid on the rising and falling
edges of RCA.
B1
RSTN
Input
Chip Reset (FIFO Clear)
C3, D3, P3, R3
LPEN(A-D)
Input
Loop Enable, Channels A-D. When high, the serial output for each channel is looped
(w/pulldown) back to its input.
D1
U1
P2
SIG_DET
Output
SIG_DET. This pin is asserted when all four Signal Detectors detect signal levels
above the threshold (see Table 3-28 and/or Table 3-33).
RSVN/
RETIMER
Input
(w/pullup)
Active Low If low, the BBT3420 acts as a Retimer device, rather than a transceiver
(SerDes) device.
BISTEN
Input
Built-In Self Test Enable--Active High. When high, enables internal 23-bit PRBS test
(w/pulldown) function.
