SFP Controller with Dual LDD Interface

For all device addresses sourced from EEPROM (Table
02h, Register 8Bh), the default device addresses are
A2h and B2h until V

CC

exceeds POA allowing the device

address to be recalled from the EEPROM.

Delta-Sigma Outputs

Four delta-sigma outputs are provided: MOD1, MOD2,
APC1, and APC2. With the addition of an external RC
filter, these outputs provide 10-bit resolution analog
outputs with the full-scale range set by the input REFIN.
Each output is either manually controlled or controlled
using a temperature-indexed LUT.

A delta-sigma DAC has a digital output using pulse-
density modulation. It provides much lower output ripple
than a standard digital PWM output given the same clock
rate and filter components. Before t

INIT

, the DAC outputs

are high impedance. The external RC filter components
are chosen based on ripple requirements, output load,
delta-sigma frequency, and desired response time.
Figure 6 shows a recommended filter.
For illustrative purposes, a 3-bit example is provided in
Figure 7.
In LUT mode the DACs are each controlled by an LUT
with high-temperature resolution and an OFFSET LUT
with lower temperature resolution. The high-resolution
LUTs each have 2NC resolutions. The OFFSET LUTs
are located in the upper eight registers (F8h

-FFh) of

the table containing each high-resolution LUT. The DAC
values are determined as follows:

DAC value = LUT + 4 x (OFFSET LUT)

An example calculation for MOD1 DAC is as follows:
Assumptions:
1) Temperature is +43NC
2) Table 04h (MOD1 OFFSET LUT), Register FCh = 2Ah
3) Table 04h (MOD1 LUT), Register AAh = 7Bh
Because the temperature is +43NC, the MOD1 LUT index
is AAh and the MOD1 OFFSET LUT index is FCh.

MOD1 DAC = 7Bh + 4 x 2Ah = 123h = 291
