- 4.25Gbps CML 2:1/1:2 mux/buffer with integrated transmit pre-emphasis to compensate for PCB trace and cable insertion loss
- Integrated receive equalization extending usable cable and backplane reach without external equalizer components
- 36-pin QFN (S-XQCC-N36) compact package with lead-free JESD-609 e3 compliance for high-density high-speed PCB layouts
- 15-year YTEOL and DS42 family pedigree ensuring long-term supply continuity for network infrastructure and telecom designs
Applications
The DS42MB100TSQ/NOPB is designed for high-speed serial signal routing in network switches, routers, and server backplane interconnects where 4.25Gbps CML signals require muxing between redundant paths. Its transmit pre-emphasis and receive equalization features extend signal integrity over long PCB traces or passive copper cables in SAS, SATA, and Fibre Channel storage systems. It is also used in test and measurement equipment and SONET/SDH line cards where signal conditioning and path selection are critical.

Frequently Asked Questions
What data rate does the DS42MB100TSQ/NOPB support?
The DS42MB100TSQ/NOPB supports data rates up to 4.25Gbps on its CML (Current Mode Logic) interface, making it compatible with high-speed serial standards including Fibre Channel, SAS, SATA, and custom backplane protocols.
What signal conditioning features does the DS42MB100TSQ/NOPB include?
The DS42MB100TSQ/NOPB integrates both transmit pre-emphasis and receive equalization, which together compensate for frequency-dependent signal loss in PCB traces, cables, and connectors, restoring signal integrity at the far end of the channel.
What is the mux configuration of the DS42MB100TSQ/NOPB?
The DS42MB100TSQ/NOPB operates as a 2:1 multiplexer (two inputs selected to one output) or a 1:2 buffer (one input fanned out to two outputs), providing flexible bidirectional signal routing for redundancy and bus sharing applications.
What package does the DS42MB100TSQ/NOPB come in?
The DS42MB100TSQ/NOPB is housed in a 36-pin QFN (Quad Flat No-Lead) package designated S-XQCC-N36, offering a small PCB footprint with good thermal performance — well suited for high-density high-speed digital system boards.
Is the DS42MB100TSQ/NOPB still in active production?
Yes, the DS42MB100TSQ/NOPB has a YTEOL of 15 years and a Pb-free JESD-609 e3 RoHS-compliant marking, confirming it is actively manufactured and will remain available long-term for networking, storage, and telecom infrastructure designs.
