Product details
Overview
PEF 21624 E V2.2-G from Infineon Technologies is a single-channel symmetric DSL (SHDSL) front-end transceiver IC compliant with ITU-T G.991.2 (G.SHDSL.bis) and ETSI TS 101524. It integrates DSP, microcontroller, analog front end, line driver, hybrid, and 128-byte TX/RX FIFO per channel, operates at 3.3 V and 1.8 V supplies, consumes ~500 mW, and targets TDM-based leased-line infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the PEF 21624 E V2.2-G datasheet, PEF 21624 E V2.2-G pinout, PEF 21624 E V2.2-G application, or PEF 21624 E V2.2-G equivalent, this device serves as a drop-in SHDSL physical layer solution for E1/T1 replacement, repeater/regenerator units, and SDH/SONET termination where low power, small footprint, and M-pair support are critical.
Technical Context
The PEF 21624 E V2.2-G implements TC-PAM line coding with programmable framer and supports TDM clocks from 1.544 MHz to 16.384 MHz. Its integrated M-pair unit enables dynamic loop adaptation, while tunable hybrid circuitry optimizes reach on varying copper loop impedances.
It functions in three operational modes - Line Termination Unit (LTU), Network Termination Unit (NTU), and Regenerator Unit (COT/RT) - and includes four integrated HDLC controllers for EOC handling, one per channel, with full line probing per ITU-T G.991.2 (2004).
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SHDSL physical layer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PEF 22624 E | 2-channel version, identical architecture and pinout - shares same die with channel count masked. | Used in dual-line repeater cards or compact E1/T1 multiplexers requiring two independent SHDSL ports. | Select when board space permits dual-channel integration and system requires concurrent SHDSL link provisioning. |
| PEF 24624 E | 4-channel version, same package and software compatibility - scales linearly in power (≈2 W total) and I/O count. | Deployed in high-density line cards for central office DSLAMs or multi-service access platforms. | Choose for carrier-grade density requirements where per-channel cost amortization justifies higher initial BOM investment. |

FAQ
What is the maximum supported loop length for PEF 21624 E V2.2-G?
The device supports up to 15.5 km on 0.4 mm copper wire under G.SHDSL.bis profile 12, verified per ITU-T G.991.2 Annex A. Actual reach depends on line gauge, noise, and M-pair usage - field measurements show consistent 12 km performance on mixed-gauge loops with tunable hybrid enabled.
Does PEF 21624 E V2.2-G require external memory?
No. The device integrates all necessary program and data memory on-die, including ROM for boot code and SRAM for runtime variables and packet buffering. External memory is not required for basic SHDSL operation or EOC handling.
Can PEF 21624 E V2.2-G operate in NTU mode with synchronous TDM clocking?
Yes. In NTU mode, the device accepts external 2.048 MHz or 1.544 MHz TDM clock via CLKIN and uses it for framer synchronization and jitter attenuation. Internal clock generation is disabled, ensuring phase-coherent mapping of E1/T1 payloads to SHDSL symbols.
Is PEF 21624 E V2.2-G pin-compatible with earlier SDFE-1 revisions?
Yes. PEF 21624 E V2.2-G maintains full pin and software compatibility with prior SDFE-1 versions (e.g., PEF 21624 E V2.1), including identical LBGA-324 footprint, power sequencing, and register map - enabling drop-in replacement in existing designs without layout or firmware changes.
