The CYW15G0201DXB CYV15G0201DXB CYP15G0201DXB is a second-generation HOTLink II™ transceiver produced by Cypress Semiconductor Corporation. It is compatible with multiple standards, including ESCON, DVB-ASI, Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet (IEEE802.3z), CPRI™, CYW15G0201DXB conforms to OBSAI-RP3, CYV15G0201DXB conforms to SMPTE 259M and SMPTE 292M. The data uses 8B/10B encoding or 10-bit unencoded data. The dual channel transceiver operates from 195 to 1500 MBaud serial data rate, the CYW15G0201DXB operates from 195 to 1540 MBaud serial data rate, and the total throughput is 6 GBits/second.
The CYP(V)(W)15G0201DXB family is a dual‑channel HOTLink II™ transceiver that provides high‑speed serial links for fiber‑optic, copper, or board‑trace connections. It supports data rates from 195 MBaud up to 1500 MBaud (1540 MBaud for the CYW variant) and offers up to 6 Gbits/s aggregate throughput. The device is used in backplane interconnects for switches, routers, base‑stations, servers and video transmission systems.
The transceiver includes integrated PLLs, 8B/10B encoding/decoding, optional phase‑align and elasticity buffers, and built‑in self‑test (BIST). Pin‑out tables detail the LVTTL and PECL‑compatible I/O, clocking options, and control signals for both transmit and receive paths.
