Acquire
Sets the PLL bandwidth wide enough to allow a lock to the received
signal in less than 8 zero crossings. This mode will operate as long
as PLLacq is a logic “1”.

Medium
The correction applied to the extracted clock is limited to a maximum
of ±1/16th bit-period for every two received zero-crossings. The PLL
operates in this mode for a period of about 30 bits immediately
following a 1 to 0 transition of the PLLacq input, provided that the
Bandwidth
Rx HOLD input is a logic 1.
0
Narrow
The correction applied to the extracted clock is limited to a maximum
Bandwidth
of ±1/64th bit-period for every two received zero-crossings. The PLL
operates in this mode whenever the Rx HOLD Input is a logic 1 and
PLLacq has been a logic 0 for at least 30 bit periods (after Medium
Bandwidth operation for instance).
0
Hold
The PLL feedback loop is broken, allowing the RX Clock to freewheel
during signal fade periods.
RxDCacq
Rx Level Measure Action
Rx HOLD

X
Clamp
Operates for one bit-time after a 0 to 1 transition of the RXDCacq
input. The external capacitors are rapidly charged towards a voltage
mid-way between the received signal input level and V
charge time-constant being of the order of 0.5bit-time.

Fast Peak
Detect
The voltage detectors act as peak-detectors, one capacitor is used to
capture the positive-going signal peaks of the RX Filter output signal
and the other capturing the negative-going peaks. The detectors
operate in this mode whenever the RXDCacq input is at a logic 1,
except for the initial 1-bit Clamp-mode time.

Averaging Peak
Detect
Provides a slower but more accurate measurement of the signal peak
amplitudes.
Hold
The capacitor charging circuits are disabled so that the outputs of the
voltage detectors remain substantially at the last readings
(discharging very slowly [time-constant approx. 2,000 bits] towards
V

).

4.2.3 Rx Clock Extraction
Synchronized by a PLL circuit to zero-crossings of the incoming data, the Rx Clock Extraction circuitry
controls the Rx Clock output. The Rx Clock is also used internally by the Data Extraction circuitry. The PLL
parameters can be varied by the Rx Circuit Control inputs PLLacq and Rx HOLD to operate in one of four
PLL modes as described in Table 5.
4.2.4 Rx Data Extraction
The RX Data Extraction circuit decides whether each received bit is a 1 or 0 by sampling the received signal,
after filtering, and comparing the sample values to an adaptive threshold derived from the Level Measuring
circuit. This threshold is adapted from bit to bit to compensate for intersymbol interference caused by the
bandlimiting of the overall transmission path and the Gaussian premodulation filter. Extracted data is output
from the RX Data pin, and should be sampled externally on the rising edge of the RX CLK.
