Abstract

This paper proposes a blind oversampling data recovery algorithm LUT-DRC (Data Recovery Algorithm Based on Look-Up Table) for 100Base-FX. The LUT-DRC can recover all data in an Ethernet packet of any length, even a clock jitter of \(8\,ns\,\pm \,0.03125\,ns\) at the transmitter. The LUT-DRC core consists of only 470 LUT6, 1 block RAM, and 1 PLL (Phase-Locked Loop, PLL) and has an estimated power consumption of 10 mW at 125 Mbps. LUT-DRC was implemented on a PANGO PGL25 FPGA device and tested using a NuStreams-700 network tester. No CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check, CRC) errors were found during data transfer testing using \(2.5 * 10^8\) Ethernet packets. The characteristics of LUT-DRC and its performance make it suitable for any FPGA to implement 100BASE-FX communication without a 100BASE-FX PHY (Physical Layer Transceiver, PHY) chip.
