LXT331
Dual T1/E1 Line Interface Unit
Datasheet
The LXT331 is a Dual Line Interface Unit (DLIU) optimized for North America 1.544 Mbps
(T1) and international 2.048 Mbps (E1/CEPT) applications. It features a constant low output
impedance transmitter for high return loss. Transmit pulse shape is selectable for various line
lengths and cable types. The data recovery circuit also offers selectable slicer ratios for T1 or E1
applications.
The LXT331 offers both a serial interface (SIO) for microprocessor control and a hardware
control mode for stand-alone operation.
The LXT331 offers a variety of advanced diagnostic and performance monitoring features. It
uses an advanced double-poly, double-metal CMOS process and requires only a single 5-volt
power supply.
