The LXT381 is an octal short haul analog Line Interface Unit for ITU G.703 2.048 Mbit/sec.
transmission systems. It incorporates eight independent receivers and eight independent
transmitters in a single LQFP-144 or PBGA-160 package.
The transmit output drivers provide low impedance, constant during marks and spaces and
constant pulse amplitudes independent of supply voltage variations.
The LXT381 may be configured for unbalanced 75
Ω
or for balanced 120
Ω
systems without
external component changes in the transmit section. The transmit return loss performance
exceeds latest ETSI return loss recommendations such as ETS 300166.
The LXT381 features a differential data receiver architecture with high noise interference
margin. The receivers use peak detection and a variable threshold for reliable data recovery
down to 500 mV or up to 12 dB of cable attenuation.
Each receiver incorporates an analog Loss Of Signal (LOS) processor that meets latest ITU
G.775 standard.
The fast power down mode of all transmitters allows the implementation of Hitless Protection
Switching (HPS) application without the use of relays.
