GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADN2892 is a 4.25 Gbps limiting amplifier with integrated loss of signal (LOS) detection circuitry and a received signal strength indicator (RSSI). This part is optimized for Fibre Channel (FC) and Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) optoelectronic conversion applications. The ADN2892 has a differential input sensitivity of 3.5 mV p-p and accepts up to a 2.0 V p-p differential input overload voltage. The ADN2892 has current mode logic (CML) outputs with controlled rise and fall times.
