1Gbps to 11.3Gbps, SFP+ Laser Driver
with Laser Impedance Mismatch Tolerance
Transmitter Control Register (TXCTRL)
Bits 5 and 4: TXDE_MD[1:0]. Controls the mode of the transmit output deemphasis circuitry.
00 = deemphasis is fixed at 6.25% of the modulation amplitude
01 = deemphasis is fixed at 3.125% of the modulation amplitude
10 = deemphasis is programmed by the SET_TXDE register setting
11 = deemphasis is at its maximum of approximately 9%
Bit 3: TXEQ_EN. Enables or disables the input equalization circuitry.
0 = disabled
1 = enabled
Bit 2: SOFTRES. Resets all registers to their default values (the DISABLE pin must be at a logic 1 during a write to
SOFTRES for the registers to be set to their default values).
0 = normal
1 = reset
Bit 1: TX_POL. Controls the polarity of the signal path.
0 = inverse
1 = normal
Bit 0: TX_EN. Enables or disables the output circuitry.
0 = disabled
1 = enabled
