1Gb/s 16-Channel
Drive-Side Deskew IC
VSC6250
The 32 delays (rising and falling edges for 16 channels) in the VSC6250 are programmed using a parallel
interface. Verniers are selected by a 5-bit address word and controlled by two function enable bits. Each vernier
requires 11 bits to set the delay value.
Power dissipation of the VSC6250 is less than 5W from a single -2V supply.
