Maxim MAX3784/MAX3784A 5Gbps PCB Equalizer Handbook
The MAX3784 and MAX3784A are adaptive 5 Gbps PCB equalizers that compensate for transmission‑line loss on FR‑4 backplanes up to 40 in (1 m). They use differential CML inputs and outputs, support low‑power standby mode, and are supplied in a 4 mm × 4 mm, 16‑pin QFN package.
The document details absolute maximum ratings, electrical characteristics, pin descriptions, typical operating characteristics, layout recommendations, and package information. It also includes application notes for 4.25 Gbps Fibre Channel and 4 × 1.25 Gbps Ethernet configurations.
