SONET OC-48/SDH STM-16 and ATM
Part of the Agilent METRAK family
Data Sheet
Description
General
The HFCT-5402D is a 1300 nm
laser-based duplex SC receptacle
2 x 9 transceiver with integral
clock and data recovery circuits.
It provides a cost-effective
solution for short haul 2488 Mb/s
data link requirements.
This compact transceiver requires
a single +5 V source and contains
the following features as depicted
in Figure 1: differential data input,
differential retimed data output,
differential recovered clock
output, laser bias monitor, signal
detect and transmitter disable.
Transmitter Section
The transmitter section of the
HFCT-5402D is similar to 1300 nm
single mode transceivers in use at
the 155 and 622 Mb/s rate. It
consists of a 1300 nm InGaAsP
laser in an eye-safe optical
subassembly (OSA) which mates
to the fiber cable. The laser OSA
is driven by a custom, silicon
bipolar IC which converts
differential input PECL logic
signal into an analog laser drive
current.

Receiver Section
The receiver section of the
transceiver provides a full set of
features including an integral
clock and data recovery (CDR)
circuit together with signal detect
function.
The receiver utilizes an InGaAs
PIN photodiode mounted together
with a transimpedance
preamplifier IC. This is connected
to custom silicon circuits
providing post-amplification and
quantization, CDR function and
signal detection.
CDR Function
In normal operation, the CDR data
loop is able to acquire and
maintain bit lock with the use of
the external reference clock. The
recovered clock is used to re-time
the quantizer data output, which
completes the full CDR function.
Reference Clock
With ‘intermittent’ or ‘no data
condition’ the output clock will
slowly drift away from the
2.48832 GHz. The reference clock
enables the VCXO to acquire and
maintain lock. Ref Clk input is self
biasing and 50 Ω input terminated.
The relative timing relationship
between the output retimed data
and the recovered clock signals is
shown graphically in Figure 2. The
voltage swing measurement
method is also shown for clock
and data outputs.
Temperature Range
The HFCT-5402D is specified for
operation over normal commercial
temperature range of 0° to +70°C
with recommended metal shield in
place (see Figure 3) and with
2 m/s forced airflow around the
transceiver. In the event a 2 m/s
airflow is not available due to
chassis restrictions, high
temperature operation will be
limited to +60°C.
For input optical power greater
than the specified receiver
sensitivity of -18.5 dBm, the
bit-error-ratio will be better than
1 x 10-10. The SD (signal detect)
will be deasserted when loss of
optical signal occurs.

Application Information
Transmitter Section
The HFCT-5402D transmitter
section comprises Agilent’s
proprietary high speed silicon
bipolar laser driver IC and MultiQuantum Well (MQW) laser diode
housed in an eye-safe optical
subassembly. The input stage
accepts PECL level signals and
converts this to analog laser drive
current. The laser driver IC
provides both laser bias and
modulation current control
3
enabling a physically compact
transmitter section. The nonlinear
characteristics of laser threshold
and bias points over operating
temperature range utilizes
sophisticated extinction ratio
control circuitry. The Agilent laser
driver IC deploys a tri-gradient
approximation methodology and
allows good power and extinction
ratio control. Figure 4 illustrates
the sections of the laser driver IC.
Electrical Characteristics
Transmitter Section
Input Stage
The input stage is internally
biased and 50 ohm terminated.
The transmitter accepts either
single-ended or differential PECL
inputs with signal levels ranging
from 200 mV to 1100 mV swing. It
is important to ensure data input
lines have a 50 ohm characteristic
impedance for optimum
performance.
Laser Bias Monitor
The laser bias monitor points
(pins 5 and 6) allow the user to
directly measure dc bias current
(see Figure 5). The I/V relationship for laser bias current is:
IBIAS= [(V6 - V5)/10] A
It is worth noting that the above
relationship yields total laser
forward current (threshold and
bias) when no data is applied and
approximately threshold current
when modulation is applied. This
monitoring facility allows the user
to identify EOL conditions in a
given application.
Figure 6 shows a circuit which
can be used for indicating high
bias current conditions. Pins 5 and
6 are connected to the inverting
and non-inverting inputs of IC1A
respectively. IC1A is configured as
a unity gain buffer and its output
(VIC1A) fed to IC1B. IC2 provides a
fixed 1.25 V reference to VR1
which allows fine adjustment for
setting the threshold voltage (VTH)
at IC1B which is configured as a
TTL comparator. The voltage VTH
at IC1B’s inverting input
determines the level at which the
high bias conditions results in a
TTL flag. For End of Life
indication, a typical voltage
setting for VTH is:

Transmitter Disable
The transmitter can be disabled
by connecting pin 7 to the
appropriate voltage (V7 > 4 V). In
normal operation (transmitter
enabled), no external connection
is required.
Transmitter Jitter Generation
The jitter generation requirements
for SONET/SDH transport systems
are:
• 100 m UI pk - pk (SONET)
• 10 m UI rms (SONET/SDH)
Typical jitter generation
performance for the HFCT-5402D
is:
• 60 m UI pk - pk
• 6 m UI rms.
Figure 7 shows the experimental
configuration used to test jitter
generation.
An Agilent 70841B pattern
generator is used to generate ECL
data at 2.48832 Gb/s to modulate
the transmitter. Jitter generation
is measured using a SONET STS48
2-23 PRBS scrambled pattern.
The optical output of the transmitter is attenuated and fed into
the receiver of the OmniBER 718A
at an input sensitivity of -14 dBm.

Inputs fed to the reference clock
(pin 1) require 100 nF ac coupling
and need 100 ppm frequency
accuracy. Clock outputs are
maintained at 2.48832 GHz
throughout the dynamic range of
the receiver up to the threshold of
Signal Detect. In the absence of
input optical data, the transceiver
clock will vary within 1000 ppm of
the clock frequency.
All development and
characterization work have been
performed with a PECL 19.44 MHz
clock oscillator part number
OSO-SFE-B00C obtained from
Onspec (www.onspec.co.uk).
Figure 9 shows the rise time and
amplitude requirements for the
reference clock input. Various
combinations of rise times and
amplitudes allow the user a
degree of freedom in selecting
clock sources.

Reference Clock
The clock and data regeneration
function is designed such that a
reference clock running at 1/128th
the data rate is required to acquire
and maintain lock. Operation at
other clock frequencies in the
vicinity of 2.488 GHz are possible
by using different crystal
oscillators having 1/128th the
frequency of interest. (for
2488 Mb/s operation a 19.44 MHz
clock is required). Figure 8

Output Terminations
The receiver DATA and CLOCK
outputs provide Current Mode
Logic (CML) levels. These outputs
are internally ac coupled with
0.1 uF capacitors. Typical output
swings are in the order of 350 mV
for DATA and 300 mV for CLOCK.
Figures 10 and 11 show typical
data and clock waveforms.
It is recommended that the
receiver outputs are connected to
50 ohm transmission lines.
Interfacing with ECL/PECL input
stages is possible provided that
input sensitivities will
accommodate minimum voltage
swings of 200 mV pk-pk.
Figure 10. Typical Receiver DATA Output 2488 Mb/s.
Signal Detect
The signal detect function is
provided via a single-ended output
and offers low power TTL
capability. Interfacing this node to
other stages requires a high
impedance input typically in the
order of 10 K ohms. Low input
impedance stages are unsuitable.
This node may be left
unconnected if not used.
Hysteresis for the signal detect
function is typically 0.1 dB.
Figure 12 shows a circuit that is
recommended for interfacing the
+5 V TTL SD output into a +3.3 V
LVPECL input. The SD node
comprises a PNP transistor with a
collector resistance of 4.7 K.

Jitter Parameters
The HFCT-5402D transceiver
design fulfills the jitter generation
and tolerance requirements for
SONET and SDH. Figure 13 shows
typical jitter tolerance
performance. Jitter transfer
performance does not conform to
SONET/SDH requirements due to
a slightly higher cutoff frequency.
However, in-band jitter transfer
performance has no peaking.
Typical jitter transfer
performance is shown on
Figure 14.
Reflectance
It is recommended that an 8°
angle polished SC connector be
used in conjunction with the
HFCT-5402 in order to fulfill the
reflectance requirements as per
ITU-G957 and Bellcore
GR-253-CORE. Optical reflection
on the Rx side of the transceiver is
primarily contributed by the glass
air interface of the SC connector
ferrule. An angle polished
connector for such an interface
reduces the incidental refection.
Figure 13. Typical Receiver Jitter Tolerance
Receiver Operating Wavelength
The HFCT-5402D receiver is
specified for operation over a
range of wavelengths from 1270 nm
to 1570 nm. Figure 15 shows the

Power Supply Filtering
Good power supply filtering is
required for optimum receiver
performance. The LC filtering
technique illustrated in Figure 16
is recommended for the user.
This configuration of filtering
arrangement is adopted for the
HFCT-5402D evaluation board.
Figure 17 shows the noise
rejection response for such an
configuration. Additional
information is provided in
Figure 18 to show noise rejection
when the series inductor value is
increased to 47 uH. Using an
intermediate value of series
inductance allows the designer to
balance physical size, ohmic
resistance (and hence voltage
drop) and filtering capability to
suit application needs.

Evaluation Board
An evaluation board (HFCT-5001)
is available for easy use and
demonstration of transceiver
performance. The evaluation
board is shown in Figure 19 and
provides a physical platform for
the device under test and offers
facilities for +5 V dc power supply
connections, Tx data inputs, signal
detect, Rx data/clock outputs,
clock reference input, Tx disable
switch and recommended power
supply filtering.
The evaluation board also
provides a 19.44 MHz crystal
oscillator which is powered by the
+5 V dc voltage supply. The
output of this unit is connected to
the clock reference input of the
first transceiver and allows the
HFCT-5402D to operate at
2.488 Gb/s data rate. Optionally, a
separate clock source can be fed
to the first board if a different
frequency is required.
It is possible to operate the
HFCT-5402D between 622 Mb/s to
2.66 Gb/s. However, full
performance characterization has
only been performed at 2.488 Gb/s
line rate.
The circuit schematic for the
evaluation board is shown in
Figure 20.

Application Considerations
PCB Layout
Like all RF applications, the PCB
design and layout for this high
speed transceiver requires careful
consideration and attention
towards interconnect impedances
for DATA and CLOCK nodes. Any
form of power supply filtering or
decoupling should be done as
close as possible to the power
supply pins to minimize radiated
or conductive pickup.
11
It is recommended that high speed
data and clock tracks be buried
striplines to minimize exposure of
these lines for EMI suppression.
Also, such an approach will
ensure signal integrity and avoid
waveform degradation from RF
interference. Plated through holes
or vias used should be as small as
possible to avoid impedance
discontinuities along
interconnecting tracks. Where AC
coupling capacitors are required,
small 0603 size components are
recommended for minimizing
variations in track impedances.
EMI Radiation/Susceptibility
EMI suppression becomes
increasingly difficult when
operating at high data rates. EMI
radiation measurements
performed to date indicate the
need to use external shielding in
order to meet FCC Class A chassis
emissions requirements. The
recommended metal shield for the
transceiver is shown in Figure 3.
The shield requires good
connection to signal ground for
effective suppression. The typical
emission peaks are at ~2.5 GHz
and ~7.5 GHz. It is recommended
that the user adopts an approach
where the transceiver module is
sited within the chassis/rack
confines and a short patchcord
used to link the transceiver to the
optical interface in the front panel.
Front panel mounting is not
recommended due to the aperture
size required which will not be
sufficiently suppressive for
frequencies above 7.5 GHz.
Metal bodied simplex/single SC
adaptors are recommended for
the front panel. This body type is
preferred to the all plastic version
because it presents a reduced
aperture for improved emissions
suppression. Duplex SC adaptors
are not recommended as the
larger aperture required for front
panel mounting may allow high
frequency radiation.
EMI susceptibility has been tested
to 10 V/M field strength with
minimal degradation of receiver
sensitivity.
Compatibility Trials
The HFCT-5402D transceiver has
been evaluated using Vitesse
Semiconductors VS8004 and
VS8005 Mux/Demux chipsets and
compatibility has been confirmed
with a 9 dB margin of electrical
attenuation between the
HFCT-5402D module and the
12
VS8005 Demux inputs. Figure 21
shows the test configuration. An
additional Demux is deployed
between the pattern generator and
the Mux to avoid the need for
multiple pattern generators. Also,
a 3 dB electrical attenuator is
required at the transmitter inputs
to prevent the 1.2 Vp-p Mux data
signal from overloading the Tx
inputs of the HFCT-5402D
module. Compatibility trials have
also been successful using the
VSC8062 and VSC8063 chipsets.
A joint reference design combining
both the Agilent HFCT-5402D
transceiver and AMCC Mux S3041/
Demux S3042 ICs on a common
PC board has been completed and
good performance achieved. The
aim of this exercise was to design
a functional board with a view of
sharing relevant layout and circuit
information with the optics
system designer. Figure 22 shows
the reference design board. Full
description of the design, layout,
measurements and results are
beyond the scope of this document
but a separate document is
available. Please contact your
Agilent representative for further
information.
Recommended Solder and Wash
Process
The HFCT-5402D is compatible
with industry standard wave or
hand solder processes.
HFCT-5402D Process Plug
The HFCT-5402D transceiver is
supplied with a process plug for
protection of the optical ports
with the Duplex SC connector
receptacle. This process plug
prevents contamination during
wave solder and aqueous rinse as
well as during handling, shipping
or storage. It is made of hightemperature, molded, sealing
material that will withstand +80°C
and a rinse pressure of 50 lb/in2.
Recommended Solder Fluxes and
Cleaning/Degreasing Chemicals
Solder fluxes used with the
HFCT-5402D fiber-optic
transceiver should be watersoluble, organic solder fluxes.
Some recommended solder fluxes
are Lonco 3355-11 from London
Chemical West, Inc. of Burbank,
CA, and 100 Flux from Alphametals of Jersey City, NJ.
Recommended cleaning and
degreasing chemicals for the
HFCT-5402D are alcohol’s (methyl,
isopropyl, isobutyl), aliphatics
(hexane, heptane) and other
chemicals, such as soap solution
or naphtha. Do not use partially
halogenated hydrocarbons for
cleaning/degreasing. Examples of
chemicals to avoid are 1.1.1.
trichloroethane, ketones (such as
MEK), acetone, chloroform, ethyl
acetate, methylene dichloride,
phenol, methylene chloride or
N-methylpyrolldone.
Regulatory Compliance
The HFCT-5402D is intended to
enable commercial system
designers to develop equipment
that complies with the various
regulations governing certification
of Information Technology
Equipment. Additional
information is available from your
Agilent sales representative.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Normal ESD handling precautions
for ESD sensitive devices should
be followed while using the
HFCT-5402D. These precautions
include using grounded wrist
straps, work benches and floor
mats in ESD controlled areas.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Most equipment designs utilizing
these high-speed transceivers
from Agilent will be required to
meet the requirements of FCC in
the United States, CENELEC
EN55022 (CISPR 22) in Europe
and VCCI in Japan.
Additionally, static discharges to
the exterior of the equipment
chassis containing the transceiver
parts must also be considered. If
the duplex SC connector is
exposed to the outside of the
equipment chassis it may be
subject to whatever ESD system
level test criteria that the
equipment is intended to meet.
The HFCT-5402D is designed to
meet such EMI requirements
when used with a recommended
shield and positioned inside a well
designed chassis. Additionally, an
SC duplex jumper cable is
recommended for connecting the
transceiver to front panel simplex
SC optical ports in order to
minimize chassis apertures.
14
Eye Safety
TUV Certification 933/510804 and
CDRH Accession 9521220-15
show that the HFCT-5402D is a
IEC 825/CDRH Class 1 laser
product. Copies available on
request.
Qualification
The HFCT-5402D transceivers
have been successfully qualified in
accordance with the requirements
of Bellcore document
