pled to their respective grounds. TV+ must not
exceed RV+ by more than 0.3 V.
Decoupling and filtering of the power supplies is
crucial for the proper operation of the analog cir-
cuits in both the transmit and receive paths. A 47µF
tantalum and 1.0µF mylar or ceramic capacitor
should be connected between TV+ and TGND, and
a 0.1µF mylar or ceramic capacitor should be con-
nected between RV+ and RGND. Place capacitors
as closely as possible to their respective power sup-
ply pins. Wire-wrap breadboarding of the line in-
terface is not recommended because lead resistance
and inductance serve to defeat the function of the
decoupling capacitors.
3 ARBITRARY WAVEFORM
GENERATION
In addition to the predefined pulse shapes, the user
can create custom pulse shapes under the Host
Mode operation. This flexibility allows the board
designer to accommodate non-standard cables,
EMI filters, protection circuitry, etc.
The arbitrary pulse shape of mark (a transmitted
“1”) is specified by describing it's pulse shape
across three Unit Intervals (UIs). This allows, for
example, the long-haul return-to-zero tail to extend
into the next UI, or two UIs, as is required for iso-
lated pulses.
Each UI is divided into multiple phases, and the us-
ers defines the amplitude of each phase. The wave-
form of a space (a transmitted “0”) is fixed at zero
volts. Examples of the phases are shown in
Figure 10. In all cases, to define an arbitrary wave-
form, the user writes to the Waveform Register ei-
ther 36, 39 or 42 times (12, 13 or 14 phases per UI
for three UIs). The phases are written in the order:
UI1/phase1, UI1/phase2, ... , UI1/phase14,
UI2/phase1, ... , UI2/phase14, UI3/phase1, ... ,
UI3/phase14.
E1 Arbitrary Waveform Example
Figure 10. Phase Definition of Arbitrary Waveform
The CS61318 divides the 488 ns UI into 14 uni-
form phases (34.9 ns each), and uses the phase in-
formation written for all 14 phases of each UI.
When transmitting pulses, the CS61318 will add
the amplitude information from the prior two sym-
bols with the amplitude of the first UI of the current
symbol before outputting a signal on TTIP/TRING.
Therefore, a mark preceded by two spaces will be
output exactly as the mark is programmed. Howev-
er, when one mark is preceded by marks, the first
portion of the last mark may be modified. With
AMI data, where successive pulses have opposite
polarity, the undershoot tail of one pulse will cause
the rising edge of the next mark to rise more quick-
ly, as shown in Figure 11.
