Abstract :
An IC which performs DSV error monitoring and clock and data fail detection in an optical fibre transmission system is described. The circuit makes use of cells from a high speed logic cell library integrated with specialised analogue functions to achieve combined analogue and digital operation at 680Mb/s.
