Since LVPECL driver’s DC levels (both common mode voltages and output swing) are incompatible with
MPC8308 SerDes reference clock input’s DC requirement, AC-coupling has to be used.
assumes that the LVPECL clock driver’s output impedance is 50 Ω. R1 is used to DC-bias the LVPECL
outputs prior to AC-coupling. Its value could be ranged from 140 Ω to 240 Ω depending on clock driver
vendor’s requirement. R2 is used together with the SerDes reference clock receiver’s 50-Ω termination
resistor to attenuate the LVPECL output’s differential peak level such that it meets the MPC8308’s SerDes
reference clock’s differential input amplitude requirement (between 200 mV and 800 mV differential
peak). For example, if the LVPECL output’s differential peak is 900 mV and the desired SerDes reference
clock input amplitude is selected as 600 mV, the attenuation factor is 0.67, which requires R2 = 25 Ω.
Please consult clock driver chip manufacturer to verify whether this connection scheme is compatible with
a particular clock driver chip.
