The CDR Coder/Decoder is a deserializer module with integrated clock recovery, engineered for high-speed serial-to-parallel conversion at 9.953 Gbit/s and 10.3125 Gbit/s. It accepts CML differential serial data, performs bit-error detection, and outputs 16-bit parallel LVDS data with precise clock alignment. Built for SONET/SDH and 10 Gbps Ethernet validation, it provides Loss-of-Lock and Sync-Error indicators, clock holdover capability, and supports multiple PRBS test patterns for comprehensive signal diagnostics.
