1Gbps to 12.5Gbps
Passive Equalizer for Backplanes and Cables
General Description
The MAX3787 is a 1Gbps to 12.5Gbps equalization
network that compensates for transmission medium loss-
es encountered with FR4 and cables. The equalization
network is composed entirely of passive components
and functions equally well for 8b/10b or scrambled sig-
nals. It is packaged in a small 1.5mm x 1.5mm chip-
scale package (UCSP™) that can be placed anywhere
along the transmission medium to increase jitter margin
for high-speed interconnects. Roughly the size of two
0603 components, the MAX3787 easily provides place-
ment and routing flexibility.
At 8.5Gbps, the MAX3787 compensates for spans up to
18in of FR4 and 7m of cable. At 12.5Gbps, the MAX3787
compensates for spans up to 12in of FR4 and 3m of
cable. Input and output impedance is 100Ω differential.
The MAX3787 requires no power and operates over a
-40°C to +125°C temperature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Signal applied differentially at point A as shown in Figure 1. The deterministic jitter at point B is from media-induced loss,
not from clock-source modulation. Deterministic jitter is measured at the 50% vertical level of the signal at point C.
