2. The XRT71D00 device has been designed to operate in the Receive Path (Figure
4)
Figure 4 presents a schematic design in which the Jitter Attenuator is placed in the
“Receive Path” such that the “RPOS”, “RNEG” and “RCLK” output signals (from the
XRT73L00 LIU IC) are being routed to the “RPOS”, “RNEG” and “RCLK” input signals
of the XRT71D00 Jitter Attenuator IC.
3. The XRT71D00 device has been designed to operate in the Transmit Path (Figure
6).
It should be noted that it is entirely acceptable to design a board such that the Jitter
Attenuator is placed in the “Transmit Path”; as is shown in Figure 6. Please note that in
this case, the “RRPOS”, “RRNEG” and “RRCLK” outputs (from the XRT71D00 Jitter
Attenuator IC) are being routed to the “TPDATA”, “TNDATA” and “TCLK” input
signals of the LIU IC.
