Receiver Status Register (RXSTAT)
Bit 0: LOS. Copy of the LOS output circuitry. This is a sticky bit, which means that it is cleared on a read. The first
0-to-1 transition gets latched until the bit is read by the master or POR occurs.
Output CML Level Setting Register (SET_CML)
Bits 7 to 0: SET_CML[7:0]. The SET_CML register is an 8-bit register that can be set up to 255, corresponding to an
output up to 1000mV
P-P
. See the
Typical Operating Characteristics
section for a typical CML output voltage vs. DAC
code graph.
LOS Threshold Level Setting Register (SET_LOS)
Bits 5 to 0: SET_LOS[5:0]. The SET_LOS register is a 6-bit register used to program the LOS threshold. See the
Typical Operating Characteristics
section for a typical LOS threshold voltage vs. DAC code graph.
