The MAX3982 is a single-channel, copper-cable preemphasis driver that operates from 1Gbps to 4.25Gbps. It provides compensation for copper links, such as
4.25Gbps Fibre Channel, allowing spans of up to 15m with 24AWG. The cable driver provides four selectable preemphasis levels. The input compensates for up to 10in of FR4 circuit board material at 4.25Gbps.
The MAX3982 also features SFP-compliant loss-of-signal detection with selectable sensitivity and TX_DISABLE. Selectable output swing reduces EMI and power consumption. It is packaged in a 3mm x 3mm, 16-pin thin QFN and operates from 0°C to +85°C temperature range.
