recommended that a limiting clamp be provided to maintain
the Absolute Maximum Rating limits of Table 102. A simple
example of such a clamp is given in Figure 25, using a small
shunt regulator. Since the power dissipation of the regulator
is negligible except during the supply power-up time
difference, no special heat dissipation precautions are
needed.

The BBT3821 incorporates a number of features that
facilitate interface to the (pin-function-compatible) XENPAK,
XPAK and X2 interfaces. The relevant 3.125Gbps serial lines
in the BBT3821-JH are brought out in exactly the correct
order to be connected to the edge connector, minimizing any
layout problems, and the use of vias, in PCB design.
Furthermore, the BBT3821 device also incorporates the
logic required to handle the TX_ON/OFF and LASI pins, to

A “quiet” analog ground also enhances the jitter performance
of the BBT3821 as well. A similar cut out in the ground plane
is recommended, to isolate the analog sections from the
digital ones.

using one 22µF (1210 case size, Ceramic), and eleven
0.1µF (0402 case size, ceramic), and eleven 0.01µF (0402

0.1µF 0402 case size capacitors must be placed right next to

capacitor must be ceramic for the lowest ESR possible, and
must be of 1210 case size or better to achieve this. The
0.01µF capacitors should be of case size 0402 or better,
offering the lowest ESL to achieve low impedance towards
the GHz range. Also, note that the ground of these
capacitors must be well connected to GNDA.
If a suitable device with 256 bytes at the A0 device address
(either a serial EEPROM device like the Atmel AT24C02A or
a device such as the Micrel MIC3000 or the Dallas
Semiconductor DS1852) is present, the data in it will thus be
transferred to the MDIO register space. Most of this data is
merely copied to the MDIO space, but a few specific items
(listed in Table 22) have additional effects, for example
providing the ‘Package OUI values for 1.14:15, or the DOM
Capability bits in the 1.807A register.
Similarly V
V
(also 1.5V/1.355V) supply the
DDAC and DDAV
frequency (and hence jitter) determining sections of the
BBT3821. They should each be decoupled using one 22µF
ceramic lowest-ESR-possible capacitor, and one each of
0.01µF and 0.1µF. The latter especially should be close to
the respective balls of the device, with a low impedance
trace-path to the device and to GNDA.
If these DOM Capability bits (listed in Table 23) indicate that
the 2-wire bus has a device (again such as the Micrel
MIC3000 or the Dallas Semiconductor DS1852) oriented to
performing the SFF-8472-defined DOM function, the
BBT3821 will attempt to read the data from that device into
the MDIO DOM Alarm and Warning Thresholds registers
(see Table 32), and the current A/D value and flag registers
(see Table 33, Table 36 and Table 37). If the XENPAK DOM
Operation Control and Status Register (see Table 38) is set
appropriately, the DOM current A/D value and flag registers
will be updated periodically from all the DOM device(s), via
the DOM device pointers in Table 54 and Table 55. See "I2C
Interfacing" below for more details.
The V
DD
(1.5V/1.355V) supply is the power rail for the
BBT3821core logic circuit. For this supply, at least three
0.1µF (0402 case size), three 0.01µF (0402 case size) and a
10µF (tantalum or ceramic) capacitor are recommended.
Place the 0.01µF and 0.1µF capacitors as close to the V
