Data Sheet

The AFCT-5944xxZ are high performance, cost effective modules for serial optical data communications applications that range from 125 Mb/s to Gb/s. They are designed to provide SONET/SDH compliant links at 2488 Mb/s for short reach links.

The modules are designed for single mode fiber and operate at a nominal wavelength of 1300 nm. They incorporate high performance, reliable, long wavelength optical devices and proven circuit technology to give long life and consistent service.

The transmitter section of the AFCT-5944LZ/ALZ incorporates a 1300 nm Fabry Perot FP laser. The transmitter has full IEC 825 and CDRH Class 1 eye safety.

For each device the receiver section uses an MOVPE grown planar SEDET PIN photodetector for low dark current and excellent responsivity.

A positive ECL logic interface simplifies interface to external circuitry.

The transceivers are supplied in the new industry standard 2 x 10 DIP style package with the LC fiber connector interface and is footprint compatible with SFF Multi Source Agreement MSA .

Functional Description Receiver Section

Design

The receiver section for the AFCT-5944xxZ contains an InGaAs/InP photo detector and a preamplifier mounted in an optical subassembly. This optical subassembly is coupled to a postamp/decision circuit on a circuit board. The design of the optical assembly is such that it provides better than 27 dB Optical Return Loss ORL .

The postamplifier is ac coupled to the preamplifier as illustrated in Figure The coupling capacitors are large enough to pass the SONET/SDH test pattern at 155 Mb/s, 622 Mb/s and without significant distortion or performance penalty. For multirate applications the sensitivity will meet the maximum SONET specification for OC48 across all datarates -19 dBm , also for DC balanced codes, e.g. 8B/10B. For codes which have a significantly lower frequency content, jitter and pulse distortion could be degraded.

The receiver outputs are squelched at Signal Detect deasserts. That is, when the light input decreases to typical -27 dBm or less, the Signal Detect deasserts i.e. the SD Output goes to a PECL low state. This forces the DATA OUT and DATA OUT Bar to go PECL levels high and low respectively.

Figure 1 also shows a filter function which limits the bandwidth of the preamp output signal. The filter is
designed to bandlimit the preamp output noise and thus improve the receiver sensitivity.

These components will reduce the sensitivity of the receiver as the signal bit rate is increased above Gb/s.

As an optional feature the device also incorporates a photodetector bias circuit. The circuit works by providing a mirrored output of the bias current within the photodiode. This output must be connected to VCC and can be monitored by connecting through a series resistor see Application Section .

Noise Immunity

The receiver includes internal circuit components to filter power supply noise. However under some conditions of EMI and power supply noise, external power supply filtering may be necessary see Application Section .

The Signal Detect Circuit

The signal detect circuit works by sensing the peak level of the received signal and comparing this level to a reference. The SD output is low voltage TTL.
