The GN2108 is a quad channel CDR with integrated vertical cavity
surface emitting laser (VCSEL) drivers, and the GN2109 is a quad
channel CDR with integrated transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs). A
full suite of on-chip features minimizes external components and
helps customers speed up their hardware and firmware development.
The GN2108 and GN2109 chipset offers customers developing optical
modules, active optical cables and optical interconnects best in
class link performance, high flexibility and a low overall solution
cost.
The GN2108 VCSEL driver was architected to compensate for
optical distortion introduced by VCSELs. This enables several
benefits, including extended reach well beyond the SR4 standard to
greater than 300m over OM4 fiber, operation with lower bandwidth
and lower cost VCSELs, as well as operation with lower VCSEL bias
settings for lower power and higher VCSEL reliability. The GN2108
and GN2109 chipset’s comprehensive digital circuitry, together with
a set of Analog to Digital (ADC) and Digital to Analog Converters
(DAC), implements a complete set of alarms and monitoring, which
simplifies module-level firmware design and enables the use of
cost-effective Micro Controller Units (MCUs). In addition, the
GN2109’s excellent input sensitivity makes it ideal for SR4 as well
as PSM4 optical interconnects.
“The GN2108 and GN2109 chipset has strong traction with our
customers,” said Dr. Timothy Vang, Senior Director of Datacom
Marketing for Semtech’s Signal Integrity Product Group. “The
performance and feature set of the GN2108 and GN2109 is enabling
our customers to quickly bring to market winning solutions for
100Gbps QSFP28 and Active Optical Cables (AOCs) for datacenters and
a wide range of other applications.”
Semtech is a leader in the supply of optical module ICs for the
PON, datacenter/enterprise and wireless backhaul markets. Semtech
high performance PMD and CDR products range from 1Gb/s to 100Gb/s
and lead the industry for performance, power and features.
Semtech will have a demonstration of the GN2108 and GN2109 at
the Optical Fiber Communication Conference (OFC) at Semtech’s booth
1383 by appointment.
Key Features and Benefits of the GN2108 and the GN2109
Chipset
- Enables greater than 300m of reach on
multi-mode OM4 fiber and greater than 150m of reach on multi-mode
OM3 fiber.
- Enables use of lower bandwidth and
lower cost VCSELs for 100G-SR4 applications.
- The GN2108’s output driver compensates
for the optical distortion introduced by VCSELs to enable extended
reach well beyond the 100G SR4 standard, and operation with lower
cost, lower bandwidth VCSELs.
- The GN2109 offers excellent receiver
sensitivity and crosstalk performance for both SR4 multi-mode and
PSM4 single-mode applications.
- The chipset is highly integrated with a
full suite of alarms, monitoring and test features to reduce the
need for expensive MCUs, enable faster time-to-market (with reduced
need for firmware design), and aid in module debugging and
production testing.
