Features • 1 to 5 Gbps Operation • No Power or Ground Required • Equalization effective anywhere in data path • Equalizes CML, LV-PECL, LVDS signals • Symmetric I/O structures provide equal boost for bi-directional operation • 7 dB Maximum Boost • Code independent, 8b/10b or Scrambled • Supports both bi-level and multi-level signaling • Extends reach over backplanes and cables • Compatible with PCI-Express Gen1 and Gen2 • Compatible with XAUI • Operates in series with existing active Equalizer • Easy to handle 6 pin LLP Description National’s Power-saver equalizer compensates for transmission medium losses and minimizes medium-induced deterministic jitter. Performance is guaranteed over the full range of 1 to 5 Gbps. The DS38EP100 requires no power to operate. The equalizer operates anywhere in the data path to minimize media-induced deterministic jitter in both FR4 and cable applications. Symmetric I/O structures support full duplex or half duplex applications. Linear compensation is provided independent of line coding or protocol. The device is ideal for both bi-level and multi-level signaling. The equalizer is available in a 6 pin leadless LLP package with a space saving 2.2 mm X 2.5 mm footprint. This tiny package provides maximum flexibility in placement and routing of the Power-saver equalizer.

Reliability Metrics

Part Number	Process	EFR Reject	EFR Sample Size	PPM	LTA Rejects	LTA Device Hours	FITS	MTTF (Hours)
DS38EP100SD	BICMOS8B+	0	1152	0	0	743900	5	211083656

Note: The Early Failure Rates (EFR) were calculated as point estimate PPM based on rejects and sample size for EFR. The Long Term Failure Rates were calculated at 60% confidence using the Arrhenius equation at 0.7eV activation energy and derating the assumed stress temperature of 150°C to an application temperature of 55°C.
