Functional Description
Receiver Section
Design
The receiver section contains an
InGaAs/InP photo detector and a
preamplifier mounted in an
optical subassembly. This optical
subassembly is coupled to a
postamp/decision circuit.
The postamplifier is ac coupled
to the preamplifier as illustrated
in Figure 1. The coupling
capacitors are large enough to
pass the SONET/SDH test pattern
at 622 MBd without significant
distortion or performance
penalty. If a lower signal rate, or
a code which has significantly
more low frequency content is
used, sensitivity, jitter and pulse
distortion could be degraded.
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 622 Mb/s.
The device incorporates a
photodetector bias circuit. 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.

Functional Description
Transmitter Section
Design
The transmitter section uses a
Fabry Perot (FP) laser as its
optical source, see Figure 2. The
package has been designed to be
compliant with IEC 825 eye safety
requirements under any single
fault condition. The optical
output is controlled by a custom
IC that detects the laser output
via the monitor photodiode. This
IC provides both dc and ac
current drive to the laser to
ensure correct modulation, eye
diagram and extinction ratio over
temperature, supply voltage and
operating life.
The transmitter section also
includes monitor circuitry for
both the laser diode bias current
and laser diode optical power.

Note 1
Package
The overall package concept for
the Agilent transceiver consists
of four basic elements; two
optical subassemblies and two
electrical subassemblies. They
are housed as illustrated in the
block diagram in Figure 3.
The receiver electrical
subassembly includes an internal
shield for the electrical and
optical subassemblies to ensure
high immunity to external EMI
fields.
The package outline drawing and
pin out are shown in Figures 4, 5
and 6. The details of this package
outline and pin out are compliant
with the multisource definition
of the 2 x 5 and 2 x 10 DIP.
The electrical subassemblies
consist of high volume
multilayer printed circuit boards
on which the IC and various
surface-mounted passive circuit
elements are attached.
The optical subassemblies are
each attached to their respective
transmit or receive electrical
subassemblies. These two units
are than fitted within the outer
housing of the transceiver that is
molded of filled nonconductive
plastic to provide mechanical
strength. The housing is then
encased with a metal EMI
protective shield. Four ground
connections are provided for
connecting the EMI shield to
signal ground.
The PCB’s for the two electrical
subassemblies both carry the
signal pins that exit from the
bottom of the transceiver. The
solder posts are fastened into the
molding of the device and are
designed to provide the
mechanical strength required to
withstand the loads imposed on
the transceiver by mating with
the LC connectored fiber cables.
Although they are not connected
electrically to the transceiver, it
is recommended to connect them
to chassis ground.

Application Information
The Applications Engineering
Group at Agilent is available to
assist you with technical
understanding and design tradeoffs associated with these
transceivers. You can contact
them through your Agilent sales
representative.
The following information is
provided to answer some of the
most common questions about
the use of the parts.

(dBm avg) and the lowest
receiver sensitivity (dBm avg).
This OPB provides the necessary
optical signal range to establish a
working fiber-optic link. The OPB
is allocated for the fiber-optic
cable length and the
corresponding link penalties. For
proper link performance, all
penalties that affect the link
performance must be accounted
for within the link optical power
budget.
Optical Power Budget and Link
Penalties
The worst-case Optical Power
Budget (OPB) in dB for a fiberoptic link is determined by the

Electrical and Mechanical Interface
Recommended Circuit
Figures 7 and 8 shows the
recommended interface for
deploying the Agilent transceivers
in a +3.3 V system.
Data Line Interconnections
Agilent’s HFCT-5951xxx/HFCT5952xxx fiber-optic transceivers
are designed to couple to +3.3 V
PECL signals. The transmitter
driver circuit regulates the
output optical power. The
regulated light output will
maintain a constant output
optical power provided the data
pattern is reasonably balanced in
duty cycle. If the data duty cycle
has long, continuous state times
(low or high data duty cycle),
then the output optical power
will gradually change its average
output optical power level to its
preset value.

Figure 8 - Recommended Interface Circuit (HFCT-5951xxx)
The HFCT-5951xxx/HFCT5952xxx have a transmit disable
function which is a single-ended
+3.3 V TTL input which is dccoupled to pin 13 on the HFCT5952xxx and pin 8 on HFCT5951xxx. In addition the HFCT5952xxx offers the designer the
option of monitoring the laser
diode bias current and the laser
diode optical power. The voltage
measured between pins 17 and
18 is proportional to the bias
current through an internal 10 W
resistor. Similarly the optical
power rear facet monitor circuit
provides a photo current which
is proportional to the voltage
measured between pins 19 and
20 on the 2 x 10 version, this
voltage is measured across an
internal 200 W resistor.

As for the receiver section, it is
internally ac-coupled between
the preamplifier and the
postamplifier stages. The actual
Data and Data-bar outputs of the
postamplifier are dc-coupled to
their respective output pins (pins
9 and 10 on the HFCT-5951xxx
and pins 14 and 15 on the
HFCT-5952xxx). The two data
outputs of the receiver should be
terminated with identical load
circuits to avoid unnecessarily
large ac currents in VCC. If the
outputs are loaded identically the
ac current is largely nulled.
Signal Detect is a single-ended,
+3.3 V TTL compatible output
signal that is dc-coupled to pin 3
on the HFCT-5951xxx and pin 8
on the HFCT-5952xxx modules.
Signal Detect should not be accoupled externally to the follow-
on circuits because of its
infrequent state changes.
The HFCT-5952xxx offers the
designer the option of monitoring
the PIN photo detector bias
current. Figures 7 and 8 show a
resistor network, which could be
used to do this. Note that the
photo detector bias current pin
must be connected to VCC.
Agilent also recommends that a
decoupling capacitor is used on
this pin.
Power Supply Filtering and Ground
Planes
It is important to exercise care in
circuit board layout to achieve
optimum performance from these
transceivers. Figures 7 and 8
show the power supply circuit
which complies with the small
form factor multisource
agreement. It is further
recommended that a continuous
ground plane be provided in the
circuit board directly under the
transceiver to provide a low
inductance ground for signal
return current. This
recommendation is in keeping
with good high frequency board
layout practices.
Package footprint and front panel
considerations
The Agilent transceiver complies
with the circuit board “Common
Transceiver Footprint” hole
pattern defined in the current
multisource agreement which
defined the 2 x 5 and 2 x 10
package styles. This drawing is
reproduced in Figure 9 with the
addition of ANSI Y14.5M
compliant dimensioning to be
used as a guide in the mechanical
layout of your circuit board.
Figure 10 shows the front panel
dimensions associated with such
a layout.
Eye Safety Circuit
For an optical transmitter device
to be eye-safe in the event of a
single fault failure, the transmitter must either maintain eye-safe
operation or be disabled.
The HFCT-5951xxx/HFCT5952xxx is intrinsically eye safe
and does not require shut down
circuitry.

Signal Detect
The Signal Detect circuit
provides a deasserted output
signal when the optical link is
broken (or when the remote
transmitter is OFF). The Signal
Detect threshold is set to
transition from a high to low
state between the minimum
receiver input optional power
and -45 dBm avg. input optical
power indicating a definite
optical fault (e.g. unplugged
connector for the receiver or
transmitter, broken fiber, or
failed far-end transmitter or data
source). The Signal Detect does
not detect receiver data error or
error-rate. Data errors can be
determined by signal processing
offered by upstream PHY ICs.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
One of a circuit board designer’s
foremost concerns is the control
of electromagnetic emissions
from electronic equipment.
Success in controlling generated
Electromagnetic Interference
(EMI) enables the designer to
pass a governmental agency’s
EMI regulatory standard and
more importantly, it reduces the
possibility of interference to
neighboring equipment. Agilent
has designed the HFCT-5951xxx/
HFCT-5952xxx to provide
excellent EMI performance. The
EMI performance of a chassis is
dependent on physical design and
features which help improve EMI
suppression. Agilent encourages
using standard RF suppression
practices and avoiding poorly
EMI-sealed enclosures.
Agilent’s HFCT-5951ATL/TL/
HFCT-5952ATL/TL OC-12/STM-4
LC transceivers have nose shields
which provide a convenient
chassis connection to the nose of
the transceiver. This nose shield
improves system EMI
performance by closing off the
LC aperture. Localized shielding
is also improved by tying the four
metal housing package grounding
tabs to signal ground on the
PCB. Though not obvious by
inspection, the nose shield and
metal housing are electrically
separated for customers who do

industry-standard wave
processes.
Process plug
The transceivers are supplied
with a process plug for
protection of the optical port
within the LC connector
receptacle. This process plug
prevents contamination during
wave solder and aqueous rinse as
well as during handling, shipping
and storage. It is made of a hightemperature, molded sealing
material.

Recommended Solder fluxes
Solder fluxes used with the
HFCT-5951xxx/HFCT-5952xxx
should be water-soluble, organic
fluxes. Recommended solder
fluxes include Lonco 3355-11
from London Chemical West, Inc.
of Burbank, CA, and 100 Flux
from Alpha-Metals of Jersey City,
NJ.
Recommended Cleaning/ Degreasing
Chemicals
Alcohols: methyl, isopropyl,
isobutyl.
Aliphatics: hexane, heptane
Other: naphtha.
Do not use partially halogenated
hydrocarbons such as 1,1.1
trichloroethane, ketones such as
MEK, acetone, chloroform, ethyl
acetate, methylene dichloride,
phenol, methylene chloride, or
N-methylpyrolldone. Also,
Agilent does not recommend the
use of cleaners that use
halogenated hydrocarbons
because of their potential
environmental harm.
LC SFF Cleaning Recommendations
In the event of contamination of
the optical ports, the
recommended cleaning process is
the use of forced nitrogen. If
contamination is thought to have
remained, the optical ports can
be cleaned using a NTT
international Cletop stick type
(diam. 1.25 mm) and HFE7100
cleaning fluid.
Regulatory Compliance
The Regulatory Compliance for
transceiver performance is shown
in Table 1. The overall equipment
design will determine the
certification level. The transceiver
performance is offered as a
figure of merit to assist the
designer in considering their use
in equipment designs.
The second case to consider is
static discharges to the exterior of
the equipment chassis containing
the transceiver parts. To the extent
that the LC connector receptacle
is exposed to the outside of the
equipment chassis it may be
subject to whatever system-level
ESD test criteria that the
equipment is intended to meet.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
There are two design cases in
which immunity to ESD damage
is important.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Most equipment designs utilizing
these high-speed transceivers
from Agilent will be required to
meet FCC regulations in the
United States, CENELEC
EN55022 (CISPR 22) in Europe
and VCCI in Japan. Refer to EMI
section (page 9) for more details.
The first case is during handling
of the transceiver prior to
mounting it on the circuit board.
It is important to use normal
ESD handling precautions for
ESD sensitive devices. These precautions include using grounded
wrist straps, work benches, and
floor mats in ESD controlled
areas.
Immunity
Transceivers will be subject to
radio-frequency electromagnetic
fields following the IEC 61000-4-3
test method.
Eye Safety
These laser-based transceivers are
classified as AEL Class I (U.S. 21
CFR(J) and AEL Class 1 per EN
60825-1 (+A11). They are eye safe
when used within the data sheet
limits per CDRH. They are also
eye safe under normal operating
conditions and under all
reasonably foreseeable single
fault conditions per EN60825-1.
Agilent has tested the transceiver
design for compliance with the
requirements listed below under
normal operating conditions and
under single fault conditions
where applicable. TUV Rheinland
has granted certification to these
transceivers for laser eye safety
and use in EN 60950 and
EN 60825-2 applications. Their
performance enables the
transceivers to be used without
concern for eye safety up to 3.6 V
transmitter VCC.

CAUTION:
There are no user serviceable
parts nor any maintenance
required for the HFCT-5951xxx/
HFCT-5952xxx. All adjustments
are made at the factory before
shipment to our customers.
Tampering with or modifying the
performance of the
HFCT-5951xxx/HFCT-5952xxx
will result in voided product
warranty. It may also result in
improper operation of the
HFCT-5951xxx/HFCT-5952xxx
circuitry, and possible overstress
of the laser source. Device
degradation or product failure
may result.
Connection of the HFCT-5951xxx/
HFCT-5952xxx to a non-approved
optical source, operating above
the recommended absolute
maximum conditions or
operating the HFCT-5951xxx/
HFCT-5952xxx in a manner
inconsistent with their design
and function may result in
hazardous radiation exposure
and may be considered an act of
modifying or manufacturing a
laser product. The person(s)
performing such an act is
required by law to recertify and
reidentify the laser product
under the provisions of U.S. 21
CFR (Subchapter J).

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause catastrophic damage to the device. Limits apply to each parameter in
isolation, all other parameters having values within the recommended operating conditions. It should not be assumed that limiting
values of more than one parameter can be applied to the product at the same time. Exposure to the absolute maximum ratings for
extended periods can adversely affect device reliability.

Notes:
1. The output power is coupled into a 1 m single-mode fiber. Minimum output optical level is at end of life.
2. The relationship between FWHM and RMS values for spectral width can be derived from the assumption of a Gaussian shaped spectrum which
results in RMS = FWHM/2.35.
3. These are unfiltered 20-80% values.
4. This meets the “desired” requirement in SONET specification (GR253). The figure given is the allowable mismatch for 1 dB degradation in receiver
sensitivity.
5. For the jitter measurements, the device was driven with SONET OC-12C data pattern filled with a 2 23-1 PRBS payload.
6. Minimum sensitivity and saturation levels for a 223-1 PRBS with 72 ones and 72 zeros inserted. Over the range the receiver is guaranteed to
provide output data with a Bit Error Rate better than or equal to 1 x 10-10.
