Gigabit Ethernet transceiver is flexible
interface
A six-channel gigabit Ethernet transceiver provides a full-featured, flexible interface in datacommunications and telecommunications equipment.
Texas Instruments has introduced a six-channel gigabit Ethernet transceiver that provides a full-featured, flexible interface in datacommunications and telecommunications equipment The device combines high port-density with a small footprint and ultralow power operation of less than 1.5W at 1.25Gbit/s to reduce overall system cost, board space and power consumption

Data buffer has dual multiplexer
Texas Instruments has introduced the industry's first 0- to 4-Gbps data buffer/signal conditioner with a dual multiplexer.
Reference design for wireless optical comms
A new technology from Texas Instruments dramatically cuts the cost and complexity of bringing the high-speed datarates of optical networking to end users.
The TLK2226 provides for high-speed, full-duplex, point-to-point data transmission based on the IEEE802.3z 1000Mbit/s Ethernet specification, and it is compatible with the IEEE 100Base-FX Ethernet specification.
The device increases designers' flexibility, allowing them either to set each channel's datarate through management data input/output (MDIO) or to have it automatically sensed and set by the TLK2226.
The TLK2226 performs the data encoding, decoding, serialisation, deserialisation, clock extraction and clock tolerance compensation functions for a physical layer interface device.
Each of the device's six synchronisable transceivers operates at up to 1.3Gbit/s, providing up to 7.5Gbit/s of aggregate data bandwidth over a copper or optical media interface.
The TLK2226 supports RGMII, RTBI and SGMII reduced pin-count interfaces, which simplifies designs.
The TLK2226 complements other recent products introduced by TI for data communications and telecommunications applications such as the CDCLVP110 1-to-10 LVPECL clock distribution device and the SN65LVCP40 dual MUX buffer with equalisation for redundant switching of signals up to 4Gbit/s.
The TLK2226 is available today in volume in a small footprint 15 x 15mm, 196-pin, 1mm-ball-pitch ball grid array (BGA) package from TI and its authorised distributors.
Suggested resale pricing in quantities of 1000 is $19.65 each.
