Product details
Overview
DS26504LN+T&R from Maxim Integrated is a T1/E1/J1/64KCC BITS clock-recovery and rate-conversion element with dual independent receive/transmit paths, 3.3V supply, 5V-tolerant I/O, and support for G.703-compliant 64kHz composite clock, 6312kHz, and 8kHz/19.44MHz reference inputs - deployed in telecom central office timing distribution systems.
For engineers reviewing the DS26504LN+T&R datasheet, DS26504LN+T&R pinout, DS26504LN+T&R application, or DS26504LN+T&R equivalent, key selection criteria include SSM message handling (T1 BOC / E1 Sa(n)), software-selectable line termination (75Ω–133Ω), crystal-less jitter attenuation, and hardware controller port flexibility (parallel/SPI/JTAG).
Technical Context
The DS26504LN+T&R implements fully independent transmit and receive PLLs, enabling simultaneous translation between any supported input synchronization rate (T1: 1.544MHz, E1: 2.048MHz, 64kHz, 6312kHz, 8kHz, 19.44MHz) and any supported output rate. It supports both CMI-coded T1/J1 and E1 line interfaces with configurable line build-out and automatic sensitivity adjustment.
SSM recovery and insertion are implemented per GR-378 and ITU-T G.781: T1 uses bit-oriented code (BOC) with change-of-state detection; E1 uses Sa(n) bits in CRC4 multiframe with validation indication. Jitter attenuation operates without external crystal in T1/E1 modes and includes bypass mode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 3.3V ±5% - enables direct interface with modern 3.3V logic while maintaining 5V tolerance on all I/O pins for legacy system compatibility. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and telecom infrastructure environments including central office and remote terminal cabinets. |
| Synchronization Inputs | T1 (1.544MHz), E1 (2.048MHz), 64kHz composite clock, 6312kHz, 8kHz, 19.44MHz - supports multi-standard BITS timing hierarchy and legacy network interworking. |
| SSM Support | T1 BOC and E1 Sa(n) message recovery/transmission with change-of-state detection - ensures traceable timing quality and hierarchical synchronization integrity per G.781. |
| Line Termination | Software-selectable 75Ω/100Ω/110Ω/120Ω/133Ω - eliminates external resistor networks and enables dynamic adaptation to varying cable lengths and topologies. |
| Control Interfaces | 8-bit parallel (Intel/Motorola), SPI serial, and hardware control modes - provides flexible integration into FPGA-, MCU-, or ASIC-based management subsystems. |
| JTAG Support | IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan - enables in-system test, debug, and configuration verification without physical probe access. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar T1/E1 BITS timing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS26502LN+T&R | Lacks 6312kHz interface support and E1 Sa(n) bit validation; no monitor mode; identical pinout and control interface. | Restricted to T1/E1/64kHz-only systems without Japanese telecom requirements or bridging diagnostics. | Select when cost optimization is prioritized and full DS26504LN+T&R feature set is unnecessary. |
| DS26503LN+T&R | Supports same interfaces but omits 64kHz composite clock compliance and GR-378 certification; retains monitor mode and SSM handling. | Suitable for non-BITS timing applications requiring only T1/E1/8kHz/19.44MHz operation without composite clock hierarchy. | Choose for mid-tier timing nodes where GR-378 compliance is not mandated by network operator policy. |
