The LXT318 is the first fully integrated transceiver for E1 Network Termination Unit (NTU) and
ISDN Primary Rate Interface (ISDN PRI) applications at 2.048 Mbps. The transceiver operates
from 0.0 km to 2.6 km of 0.6 mm (22
AWG
) twisted-pair cable with no external components.
The LXT318 offers selectable HDB3 encoding/decoding, and unipolar or bipolar data I/O. The
LXT318 also provides jitter attenuation in either the transmit or receive direction starting at 3
Hz, and incorporates a serial interface (SIO) for microprocessor control.
The LXT318 offers a variety of diagnostic features including loopbacks and loss of signal
monitoring. It is built using an advanced double-poly, double-metal CMOS process and requires
only a single 5-volt power supply.
