MAX3272/MAX3272A
The MAX3272/MAX3272A 2.5Gbps limiting amplifiers
accept a wide range of input voltages and provide a
constant-level output voltage with controlled edge
speeds. Additional features include power detectors
with programmable loss-of-signal (LOS) indication, an
optional squelch function that mutes the data output sig-
nal when the input voltage falls below a programmable
threshold, and an output polarity selector. These parts
exhibit excellent jitter performance and have low power
dissipation.
The MAX3272/MAX3272A feature current-mode logic
(CML) data outputs that are tolerant of inductive con-
nectors, and are available in a 4mm
✕
4mm QFN pack-
age or in die form (MAX3272 only). Along with the
MAX3271, the MAX3272/MAX3272A are ideal for low-
power, compact optical receivers.

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.

Dice are designed and guaranteed from -40°C to +85°C but are tested only at T
A
= +25°C.
Supply current measurement excludes the current of the CML output stage (16mA typical). See Figure 1,
Power-Supply
Current Measurement.
Note 3:
Guaranteed by design and characterization.
Note 4:
Input edge speed is controlled using 4-pole, lowpass Bessel filters with bandwidth approximately 75% of the maximum
data rate.
Note 5:
Deterministic jitter is measured with a K28.5 pattern (0011 1110 1011 0000 0101). Deterministic jitter is the peak-to-peak
deviation from ideal time crossings, measured at the zero-level crossings of the differential output per ANSI X3.230, Annex A.
Note 6:
Random jitter is measured with the minimum input signal. For Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet applications, the peak-
to-peak random jitter is 14.1 times the RMS random jitter.
Note 7:
Power-supply noise rejection (PSNR) is calculated by the equation PSNR = 20log (∆V
CC
/(∆V
OUT
)), where
∆V
OUT
is the
change in differential output voltage due to the power-supply noise,
∆V
CC
. See Power-Supply Noise Rejection vs.
Frequency in the
Typical Operating Characteristics.
Note 8:
Hysteresis is defined as: 20
✕
log(V
LOS-DEASSERT
/V
LOS-ASSERT
).
Note 9:
Response time to a 10dB change in input power. For the specification guaranteed, the power is assumed to switch back
and forth between two levels (separated by 10dB and equidistant from assert and deassert levels) outside of the two
hysteresis thresholds.
Note 10:
All power-detect AC parameters are guaranteed with a 2
23
- 1 PRBS, 2.5Gbps input, with the longest possible run of 80CID.

Squelch Input. The squelch function is disabled when SQUELCH is not connected or set to TTL low
level. When SQUELCH is set to TTL high level and LOS is asserted, the data outputs (OUT+, OUT-)
are forced to static levels.
Noninverted Loss-of-Signal Output. LOS is asserted TTL high when the signal drops below the assert
threshold set by the TH input. The MAX3272 does not have ESD protection on this pin. The
MAX3272A has ESD protection on this pin.
Inverted Loss-of-Signal Output. LOS is asserted TTL low when the signal drops below the assert
threshold set by the TH input. The MAX3272 does not have ESD protection on this pin. The
MAX3272A has ESD protection on this pin.
Output Current Level. When this pin is not connected, the CML output current is approximately
16mA. When this pin is connected to ground, the output current increases to about 20mA.
