A 16-Gbit Fiber Channel SFP+ chipset consists of three devices: the GN2015 receive clock and data recovery (CDR) chip with limiting amplifier, the GN2016 transmit CDR with equalizer/VCSEL laser driver, and the GN1065 transimpedance amplifier with 12-GHz bandwidth and only 1.2 µA of rms noise.
Both transmit and receive devices operate reference-free and use a 3.3-V power supply. They can be used for SFP+ modules and backplane/copper interconnect applications. Each device is comes in a 4 x 4-mm RoHS-compliant 24-pin QFN package and the chipset leaves ample margin to fit within the SFP+ 1-W power limit. (GN2015 and GN2016 CDR pair, $12 ea/sample qty — samples available now.)
