Introduction
Agere Systems Inc. has developed a new ORCA Series 4 based FPSC which combines a high-speed line interface with a flexible FPGA logic core. Built on the Series 4 reconfigurable embedded system-onchips (SoC) architecture, the ORLI10G consists of an OIF standard (OIF 99.102.5) compliant XSBI or OIF-SFI4-01.0 SFI-4, 10 Gbits/s or 12.5 Gbits/s transmit and 10 Gbits/s or 12.5 Gbits/s receive line interface.
Embedded Function Features
■ Provides a line interface-to-interface with various
system standards such as OC-192/STM-64 SONET/
SDH, Quad OC-48/STM-16 10 Gbits/s Ethernet, and
10 Gbits/s OTN (digital wrapper/strong FEC) or
12.5 Gbits/s SuperFEC.
■ Embedded PLLs with programmable M/N
multiplication/division values provide for flexible data
rate conversion between line side and system side.
■ Line side provides for 16-bit LVDS data with multiple
line frequencies supported up to 850 MHz,
depending on system standard.
■ Line side interface, including timing and jitter
specifications, compliant to OIF 99.102.5 standard.
■ Receive side interface can be split into four separate
asynchronous 2.5 Gbits/s interfaces (4-bit LVDS data
interface for each) with a separate clock for each for
transfer to the FPGA logic.
■ Data and clock rates divided by 4 or 8 for use in
FPGA logic.
■ Direct interface to Agere’s 10 Gbits/s MUX
(TTRN0110G) and deMUX (TRCV0110G) or
12.5 Gbits/s MUX (TTRN01126) and deMUX
(TRCV01126) for XSBI, SFI-4, or SuperFEC
applications.
■ LVDS I/Os compliant with EIA®-644 support hot
insertion. All embedded LVDS I/Os include both input
and output on-board termination to allow high-speed
operation.
■ Low-power LVDS buffers.
