MAX3772CEE

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Overview

The MAX3772CEE is a dual-rate fibre channel repeater designed for arbitrated loop applications. It operates from a single +3.3V supply and supports data rates of 1.0625Gbps and 2.125Gbps. The device features a fully integrated phase-locked loop (PLL) to recover data signals with up to 0.7 unit interval jitter, exceeding fibre channel jitter tolerance requirements. It is housed in a 16-pin HLSSOP package with a heat sink/slug and functions within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
