ISL36111
The ISL36111 is a settable single-channel receive-side equalizer with extended functionality for advanced protocols operating with line rates up to 11.1Gb/s such as 10G Ethernet. The ISL36111 compensates for the frequency dependent attenuation of copper twin-axial cables, extending the signal reach up to at least 10m on 28AWG cable.

Features
• Supports data rates up to 11.1Gb/s
• Low power (~110mW)
• Low latency (<500ps)
• Single channel equalizer in a 3mmx3mm QFN package for straight route-through architecture and simplified routing
• Adjustable equalizer boost
• Supports 64b/66b encoded data – long run lengths
• Line silence preservation
• 1.2V supply voltage
• Loss of Signal support

Applications
• SFP+ active copper cable modules
• QSFP active copper cable modules
• 10G Ethernet
• Fibre Channel
• High-speed active cable assemblies
• High-speed printed circuit board (PCB) traces

Benefits
• Thinner gauge cable
• Extends cable reach greater than 3x
• Improved BER
