Hittite's New Mux & Demux for Broadband Test, ATE,
FPGA & DAC Interfacing
-- Support Data Serialization & Deserialization up to 32 Gbps
Chelmsford, MA, 10/11/2011 - Hittite Microwave Corporation, the world class supplier of complete MMIC based
solutions for communication & military markets has extended the Mux & Demux product line with the introduction of
32 Gbps Multiplexer & Demultiplexer products. The
HMC954LC4B 2:1 Multiplexer, and the
HMC955LC4B 1:2 Demultiplexer support up to 32 Gbps data serialization and deserialization respectively, and
are data rate and protocol agnostic. These devices are ideal for broadband test & measurement, ATE and high speed
DAC and FPGA interfacing applications.
 The
HMC954LC4B/a> is a 32 Gbps 2:1 Multiplexer which time interleaves two differential input data lanes up to 16 Gbps,
into a single output data lane up to 32 Gbps. The mux latches the two differential inputs on a rising edge of the
input clock and the device uses both rising and falling edges of the half-rate clock to serialize the data. The
HMC955LC4B is a 1:2 Demultiplexer which is designed to deserialize a single input data lane up to 32 Gbps into
two separate output data lanes up to 16 Gbps each. The device uses both the rising and falling edges of the
half-rate input clock, typically 16 GHz, to sample the input data in sequence, and latches the data onto the
differential outputs. The
HMC955LC4B also features a high speed clock synchronous invert input that allows for data scrambling.
Both the
HMC954LC4B and the
HMC955LC4B are capable of operating from either a negative or positive 3.3V supply while exhibiting only 0.2
ps RMS jitter and 3 ps p-p of deterministic jitter. These specifications, combined with low typical power
dissipation of 500 mW and low skew between outputs, make them ideal for data aggregation and data source selection
in military and communications systems. Fast rise and fall times of 19 ps, programmable output voltage swing
capability and DC coupling enables simple interfacing with FPGA devices in ATE applications.
The a href="http://www.hittite.com/products/view.html/view/HMC854LC5" target="_blank">HMC954LC4B and the
HMC955LC4B complement many of Hittite’s previously released Fiber Optic and High Speed Logic products, are
housed in ceramic 4 x 4 mm SMT packages (RoHS compliant), and are fully specified for operation from -40 °C to +85
°C. Samples and evaluation PC boards for all SMT packaged products are available from stock and can be ordered via
the company’s e-commerce site or via direct purchase order. Released data sheets are available on-line at
