Description
1
IBBP
I Channel Baseband Positive Input Pin. Input should be dc-biased to approximately 1.2 V.
Nominal characterized ac swing is 1 V p-p (0.7 V to 1.7 V). This makes the differential input
2 V p-p when IBBN is 180 degrees out of phase from IBBP.

IBBN
I Channel Baseband Negative Input Pin. Input should be dc-biased to approximately 1.2 V. Circuit A
Nominal characterized ac swing is 1 V p-p (0.7 V to 1.7 V). This makes the differential input
2 V p-p when IBBN is 180 degrees out of phase from IBBP.
