    摘要: An optical transceiver that custom logs information based on input from a host computing system (hereinafter referred to as a “host”). The optical transceiver receives input from the host concerning which operational information to log; the operational information may include statistical data about system operation, or measured parameters, or any other measurable system characteristic. The input from the host may also specify one or more storage locations corresponding to the identified operational information. If one or more storage locations are specified, the optical transceiver logs the information to the corresponding storage locations, which may be an on-transceiver persistent memory, the memory of the host or any other accessible logging location. Additionally, the input from the host may specify one or more actions to be performed when the identified information is logged. If one or more actions are specified, the optical transceiver performs the specified actions when the information is logged.

    摘要: A telecommunications system and constituent integrated circuit that includes a post-amplifier assembly configured for communication with an optical receiver, a laser driver assembly configured for communication with the optical transmitter, and a controller assembly configured to control the post-amplifier and laser driver. The post-amplifier, the laser driver, and the controller assemblies are embodied on a single integrated circuit, thereby reducing manufacturing costs. Noise due to clock generation may be reduced by having the clock act on a transient basis, turning on when needed during the boot process, and turning off when not needed during normal operation.

    摘要: Configuring chip I/O terminals such that they may be input, output, or bi-directional terminals. Furthermore, the I/O terminals may be configured with different signal sources if they are output or bi-directional terminals. In addition, the terminals may be configured to be inverted when operating in either direction. A mechanism is provided to change this configuration as needed, for example, to correspond to different pins on the package as appropriate given the package configuration and other implementation needs. This configurability allows for tremendous flexibility and independent between the chip on which the integrated circuit is embedded and the package.

The sequence of signal processing circuits include gain circuitry for amplifying or attenuating the analog input signal by a gain value to produce a scaled analog signal, an analog to digital converter for converting the scaled analog signal into a first digital signal, and digital adjustment circuitry for digitally adjusting the first digital signal to produce the digital result signal. The digital adjustment circuitry includes shifting circuitry configured to shift an input digital signal in accordance with a shift value so as to produce a digital shifted signal. The digital result signal is stored in memory in predefined locations accessible by a host.

    摘要: Microcode driven adjustment of analog scaling of an analog signal prior to being provided to an analog-to-digital converter. The microcode also causes the system to read the resulting digital value, and determine whether the scaling value should be adjusted for that analog signal. Accordingly, the microcode may cause the analog signal to be dynamically adjusted to be within the input range of the analog-to-digital converter, thereby allowing for more accurate digital conversions with lower resolution analog-to-digital converters. The microcode rapidly adjusts for any fluctuations in the input voltage. Accordingly, the analog signal may fluctuate, or even be multiplexed from a wide variety of different analog signal sources.
