Dear TI Team,

I would like to ask for your guidance regarding high-speed CML signal routing using TI devices.

We are looking for components that can support the following functions:

2:1 high-speed multiplexer
1:2 splitter (one CML differential input to two outputs)
Target data rate: approximately 1.2 Gbps
Signaling: CML, differential

My questions are:

Does TI offer any devices that are suitable for 1.2-Gbps CML applications as a 2:1 multiplexer or 1:2 splitter?
If so, could you please recommend appropriate devices (e.g., any high-speed signal conditioners, crosspoint switches, buffer ICs, etc.) that maintain signal integrity at this data rate?

Best regards,
Conor

Hi Conor,

Are you looking for a device that can do both, or one for each role?

I believe the DS42MB100 and DS42MB200 would be the closest devices we have in terms on what you're looking for.

Thanks,

Ryan

Hi Ryan,

I would like to see proposals for both standalone devices and ICs with multiple functions.

Thanks,

Conor

Hi Conor,

Looking through our portfolio, I believe our only options that match best would be the DS15MB200, or the DS42MB100. We do not have any standalone devices in this case.

Thanks,

Ryan
