2.7Gbps Post Amp with Automatic Gain Control
This amplifier has a small-signal bandwidth of 3.4GHz
and an input-referred noise of 0.26mVRMS. Over an
input signal range of 6mVP-P to 1200mVP-P (46dB), the
MAX3861 delivers a constant output amplitude that is
adjustable from 400mVP-P to 920mVP-P. Variation in
output swing is controlled within 0.2dB over a 16dB
input range. The MAX3861 provides a received-signalstrength indicator (RSSI) that is linear, within 2.5%, for
input signal levels up to 100mVP-P and an input signal
detect (SD) with programmable threshold.

MAX3861
General Description
The MAX3861 is a low-power amplifier with automatic
gain control (AGC), designed for WDM transmission
systems employing optical amplifiers and requiring a
vertical threshold adjustment after the post amp.
Operating from a single 3.3V supply, this AGC amplifier
linearly amplifies/attenuates the input signal while maintaining a fixed output-voltage swing at data rates up to
2.7Gbps. Both the input and output are on-chip terminated to match 50Ω interfaces.

Electrical characteristics are measured or characterized using a 223 - 1PRBS at 2.7Gbps with input edge speeds ≤200ps,
unless otherwise noted. Dice are tested at TA = +25°C only. All AC specifications are guaranteed by design and characterization, unless otherwise noted.
Supply current measurement is taken with AC-coupled inputs and excludes output currents into 50Ω loads.
Minimum gain is defined as VIN = 1200mVP-P and VOUT = 400mVP-P. Maximum gain is defined as VIN = 6mVP-P and VOUT
= 920mVP-P. Reference gain is measured at 100MHz.
Power-supply noise rejection is characterized with a 2.7Gbps 1100 pattern on the input. It is calculated by the equation
PSNR = 20log(∆VCC / (∆VOUT)), where ∆VOUT is the change in differential output voltage because of power-supply noise.
See Power Supply Noise Rejection vs. Frequency in the Typical Operating Characteristics.

Measurements are taken over an input signal range of 16dB.
Deterministic jitter is defined as the arithmetic sum of PWD (pulse-width distortion) and PDJ (pattern-dependent jitter).
Deterministic jitter is the difference of total jitter and random jitter, with system jitter calibrated out. It is measured with a
27 - 1PRBS, and 80CIDs with DC-coupled outputs.
Typical input resistance of SC pin is 40kΩ.
AGC loop time constant is measured with a 20dB change in the input and VSC held constant. With an external capacitor
CCG of 0.022µF connected between CG+ and CG-, a typical AGC loop time constant of 760µs is achieved.
SD deassert time depends on the AGC loop time constant set by CCG.
SD accuracy is defined as the part-to-part variation of the SD threshold at a fixed RTH value.

Offset-Cancellation Loop
The offset-cancellation loop partially reduces additional
offset at the input. In communications systems using
NRZ data with a 50% duty cycle, pulse-width distortion
present in the signal or generated by the transimpedance amplifier appears as input offset and is partially
removed by the offset cancellation loop. An external
capacitor is required between CZ+ and CZ- to compensate the offset cancellation loop and determine the
lower 3dB frequency of the signal path.

Input Signal Detection and
SD Circuitry
The input signal detection circuitry consists of variable
gain amplifiers and threshold voltages. Input signal
detection information is compared to an internal reference and creates the RSSI voltage and an internal reference signal. The signal detect (SD) circuitry indicates
when the input signal is below the programmed threshold by comparing a voltage proportional to the RSSI
signal with internally generated control voltages. The
SD threshold is set by a control voltage developed
across the external TH resistor (RTH). Two control voltages, V ASSERT and V DEASSERT , define the signal
detect assert and deassert levels. To prevent SD chatter in the region of the programmed threshold, 2.8dB to
6.3dB of hysteresis is built into the SD assert/deassert
function and thus, once asserted, SD is not deasserted
until sufficient gain is retained. When input signal
detection (SD and RSSI) is not required, tie EN to a TTL
low to power-down this circuitry.
Figure 1. Functional Diagram
Output Signal Monitor and
Amplitude Control
Output amplitude typically can be adjusted from
400mVP-P to 920mVP-P by applying a control voltage
(0V to 2.0V) to the SC pin. See Output Signal Amplitude
vs. SC Pin Voltage in the Typical Operating
Characteristics. Connect the VREF pin (2.0V) to the SC
pin for maximum output amplitude. The output signal
monitor pin provides a DC voltage that is linearly proportional to the output signal.
Design Procedure
Program the SD Threshold
The SD threshold is programmed by an external resistor, RTH, between the range of 2mVP-P to 100mVP-P.
The circuit is designed to have approximately 4.5dB of
hysteresis over the full range. See Signal Detect
Threshold vs. R TH graph in the Typical Operating
Characteristics for proper sizing.

2.7Gbps Post Amp with Automatic Gain Control
Select the Coupling Capacitors
When AC-coupling is desired, coupling capacitors CIN
and COUT should be selected to minimize the receiver’s deterministic jitter. Jitter is decreased as the input
low-frequency cutoff (fIN) is decreased.
fIN =
[
1
]
2π(50)(CIN )
For ATM/SONET or other applications using scrambled
NRZ data, select (CIN, COUT) ≥ 0.1µF, which provides
fIN < 32kHz. For Fibre Channel, Gigabit Ethernet, or
other applications using 8B/10B data coding, select
(CIN, COUT) ≥ 0.01µF, which provides fIN <320kHz.
Setting the Offset-Cancellation Loop Time
Constant for Input Signal Detection
Circuitry (Selecting CCD)
The capacitor between CD+ and CD- determines the
time constant of the input signal detection DC offsetcancellation loop. A value of 0.1µF for CCD provides a
low-frequency cutoff (fC) below 10kHz. If a lower cutoff
frequency is desired, 0.22µF gives fC = 4.5kHz and
0.47µF gives fC = 2.1kHz. To guarantee stable operation, a capacitor of less than 0.01µF should not be used.
Setting the Automatic Gain-Control Loop
Time Constant (Selecting CCG)
The automatic gain-control loop time constant is determined by the external capacitor connected between CG+
and CG-. A value of at least 0.0022µF is recommended
Programming the Output Amplitude
(Programming the SC Pin)
Output amplitude can be programmed from 400mVP-P
to 920mVP-P by applying a voltage to the SC pin. See
Output Signal Amplitude vs SC Pin Voltage in the
Typical Operating Characteristics.
Applications Information
Wire Bonding Die
For high current density and reliable operation, the
MAX3861 uses gold metallization. Make connections to
the dice with gold wire only, and use ball-bonding techniques (wedge bonding is not recommended). The
MAX3861 has two types of bond pads: the dimensions
for square bondpads are 94.4 microns by 94.4 microns;
the dimensions for the octagonal bondpads are 33.6
microns per side. Die thickness is 12mils (0.305mm).

The capacitor between CZ+ and CZ- determines the
time constant of the signal path DC offset-cancellation
loop. To maintain stability, it is important to keep a onedecade separation between fIN and the low-frequency
cutoff (fOC) associated with the DC offset-cancellation
circuit. For SONET applications, f IN < 32kHz, so
f OCMAX < 3.2kHz. Therefore, C CZ = 0.22µF (f OC =
2.99kHz), CCZ = 0.47µF (fOC = 1.4kHz), or a greater
value may be used.To guarantee stable operation, a
capacitor of less than 0.01µF should not be used.
