SY88289HL 3.3V, 3.2Gbps High-Gain CML Limiting Amplifier with High-sensitivity Loss-of-Signal Detection General Description Features The SY88289HL low-power, high-sensitivity, limiting post amplifier is designed for use in fiber-optic receivers. The device connects to typical transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs). The linear signal output from TIAs can contain significant amounts of noise and may vary in amplitude over time. The SY88289HL quantizes these signals and outputs CML-level waveforms. The SY88289HL operates from a single +3.3V power o o supply, over temperatures ranging from –40 C to +85 C. With its wide bandwidth, high gain, and signals with data rates up to 3.2Gbps and as small as 4mVPP, it can be amplified to drive devices with CML/PECL inputs. The SY88289HL generates a high-gain loss-of-signal (LOS) open-collector TTL output. This function has a high-gain input stage for increased LOS sensitivity. A programmable loss-of-signal level-set pin (LOSLVL) sets the sensitivity of the input amplitude detection. LOS asserts high if the input amplitude falls below the threshold sets by LOSLVL and de-asserts low otherwise. The enable bar input (/EN) de-asserts the true output signal without removing the input signal. The LOS output can be fed back to the /EN input to maintain output stability under a loss-of-signal condition. Typically, 3.5dB LOS hysteresis is provided to prevent chattering.

The ratio between optical hysteresis and electrical hysteresis is found to vary between 1.5 and 2, depending upon the level of received optical power and ROSA characteristics. Based upon that ratio, the optical hysteresis corresponding to the electrical hysteresis range 2dB-4.5dB, as shown in the AC characteristics table, will be 1dB3dB. 8.

SY88289HL Functional Block Diagram Detailed Description Loss-of-Signal The SY88289HL generates a chatter-free LOS opencollector TTL output with an internal 4.75k Ω pull -up resistor, as shown in Figure 4. LOS is used to determine that the input amplitude is large enough to be considered a valid input. LOS asserts high if the input amplitude falls below the threshold sets by LOSLVL and de-asserts low otherwise. LOS can be fed back to the enable bar (/EN) input to maintain output stability under a loss of signal condition. /EN deasserts the true output signal without removing the input signals. Typically, 3.5dB LOS hysteresis is provided to prevent chattering. Loss-of-Signal Level Set A programmable LOS level-set pin (LOSLVL) sets the threshold of the input amplitude detection. Connecting an external resistor between VCC and LOSLVL sets the voltage at LOSLVL. This voltage ranges from VCC to VREF. The external resistor creates a voltage divider between VCC and VREF, as shown in Figure 5. Hysteresis The SY88289HL typically provides 3.5dB LOS electrical hysteresis. By definition, a power ratio measured in dB is 10log (power ratio). Power is 2 calculated as V IN/R for an electrical signal. Hence, the same ratio can be stated as 20log (voltage ratio). While in linear mode, the electrical voltage input changes linearly with the optical power and therefore, the ratios change linearly. Thus, the optical hysteresis in dB is half the electrical hysteresis in dB given in the data sheet. Since the SY88289HL is an electrical device, this data sheet refers to hysteresis in electrical terms. With 3.5dB LOS hysteresis, a voltage factor of 1.5 is required to assert or de-assert LOS. The SY88289HL high-sensitivity limiting post amplifier operates from a single +3.3V power supply, over o o temperatures from –40 C to +85 C. Signals with data rates up to 3.2Gbps and as small as 4mVPP can be amplified. Figure 1 shows the allowed input voltage swing. The SY88289HL generates a LOS output. LOSLVL sets the sensitivity of the input amplitude detection. Input Amplifier/Buffer Figure 2 shows a simplified schematic of the SY88289HL’s input stage. The high-sensitivity of the input amplifier allows signals as small as 4mVPP to be detected and amplified. The input amplifier also allows input signals as large as 1800mVPP. Input signals below 6mVpp are linearly amplified with a typical 46dB differential voltage gain. Since it is a limiting amplifier, the SY88289HL outputs typically 800mVPP voltage-limited waveforms for input signals that are greater than 6mVPP. Applications requiring the SY88289HL to operate with high-gain should have the upstream TIA placed as close as possible to the SY88289HL’s input pins to ensure the best performance of the device. Output Buffer The SY88289HL’s CML output buffer is designed to drive 50Ω lines. The output buffer requires appropriate termination for proper operation. An external Ω 50 resistor to VCC for each output pin provides this. Figure 3 shows a simplified schematic of the output stage.
