TLK2711-SP: Feeding clock to tlk2711-sp

Part Number: TLK2711-SP

Dear,

I'm making the hardware design of TLK2711-SP in combination with FPGA. For the clock, I have a doubt that how to feed the reference clock to TLK2711 and FPGA.

According to the spec requirement, the peak-peak jitter of the reference clock should be less than 40-ps. In order to meet the demand, it's a better method of using OSC to feed the clock to the TLK2711. The diagram is shown as follows.

As known, we get two clocks from the fanout chip, name that tx_clk, and ref_clk. The ref_clk will be used to send the 16-bit data from FPGA to TLK2711. Under such a circumstance, the phase between tx_clk and data cannot be kept aligning, and this will affect the data captured by TLK2711? Can TLK2711  handle the phase difference between the clock and data internally?

Thanks

  • Hi,

    Refer to the datasheet for timing limits applicable to TXCLK. a hold time of 0.4ns is listed for TXD relative to TXCLK. See datasheet snapshot below.
