SATA I/SATA II Bidirectional Re-Driver
General Description
The MAX4951 dual-channel buffer is designed to re-drive
serial-ATA (SATA) I and SATA II signals and is functional
up to 6.0Gbps for next-generation data rates. The
MAX4951 can be placed near an eSATA connector to
overcome board losses and produce an eSATA-compati-
ble signal level.
The MAX4951 preserves signal integrity at the receiver by
reestablishing full output levels, and can reduce the total
system jitter (T
J
) by squaring up the signal. This device
features channel-independent digital boost controls to
drive SATA outputs over longer trace lengths, or to meet
eSATA specifications. SATA Out-Of-Band (OOB) signaling
is supported using high-speed amplitude detection on the
inputs, and squelch on the corresponding outputs. Inputs
and outputs are all internally 50Ω terminated and must be
AC-coupled to the SATA controller IC and SATA device.
The MAX4951 operates from a single +3.3V (typ) sup-
ply and is available in a small, 4mm x 4mm, TQFN
package with flow-through traces for ease of layout.
This device is specified over the 0°C to +70°C operat-
ing temperature range.

Note 1:
All I/O pins are clamped by internal diodes.
Note 2:
Package thermal resistances were obtained using the method described in JEDEC specification JESD51-7, using a four-layer
board. For detailed information on package thermal considerations, refer to
www.maxim-ic.com/thermal-tutorial.
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
