TLK1521,pdf(500 Mbps to 1.3 Gb

The TLK1521 is a member of the WizardLink family of multi-gigabit transceivers, intended for use in high-speed bidirectional point-to-point data transmission systems. The TLK1521 supports an effective serial interface speed of 500 Mbps to 1.3 Gbps, providing up to 1.17 Gbps of data bandwidth.

The primary application of the TLK1521 is to provide high-speed I/O data channels for point-to-point baseband data transmission over controlled impedance media of approximately 50 . The transmission media can be printed-circuit board, copper cables, or fiber-optic cable. The maximum rate and distance of data transfer is dependent upon the attenuation characteristics of the media and the noise coupling to the environment.

The TLK1521 can also be used to replace parallel data transmission architectures by providing a reduction in the number of traces, connector pins, and transmit/receive pins.
