Limiting Amplifiers
General Description
Features
The MAX3747A/MAX3747B multirate limiting amplifiers
function as data quantizers for OC-3 through OC-48 synchronous optical network (SONET), Fibre-Channel, and
Gigabit Ethernet optical receivers. They are pin-for-pin
compatible with the SY88993V from Micrel
Semiconductor, Inc. The amplifiers accept a wide range
of input voltages and provide constant-level, currentmode logic (CML) output voltages with controlled edge
speeds. The MAX3747A/MAX3747B output voltages are
800mVP-P. The MAX3747B has enhanced LOS operation
under overload conditions.
o Pin Compatible with Micrel SY88993V
o 155Mbps to 3.2Gbps Operation
o > 57dB of Gain
o < 10-12 BER with 2mVP-P Input Amplitude
o 18mA Supply Current
o Chatter-Free LOS with Programmable Threshold
o Output DISABLE Function
o PECL-Compatible Inputs
The MAX3747A/MAX3747B limiting amplifiers feature a
programmable loss-of-signal detect (LOS) and an
optional disable function (DISABLE) that can be combined to implement squelch.
The MAX3747A/MAX3747B are available in a 3mm, 10pin µMAX® package ideal for small formfactor receivers.

The data-input transition time is controlled by a 4th-order Bessel filter with f-3dB = 0.75 x 2.667GHz for all data rates of
2.667Gbps and below. The f-3db = 0.75 x 3.2GHz for a data rate of 3.2Gbps.
Note 2: Supply current is measured with unterminated outputs or with AC-coupled output termination (see Figure 1).
Note 3: Between sensitivity and overload, all AC specifications are met and the output is 0.95 x limited output amplitude.
Note 4: Guaranteed by design and characterization.
Note 5: The deterministic jitter (DJ) caused by the input filter is not included in the DJ generation specification.
Note 6: The PRBS 223 - 1 equivalent pattern consists of a K28.5 pattern plus 240 ones plus K28.5 pattern plus 240 zeros.
Note 7: Random jitter was measured without using a filter at the input.
Note 8: The signal at the input is switched between two amplitudes, Signal_ON and Signal_OFF, as shown in Figure 2A.
Note 9: The signal at the input is switched between 1.2VP-P and Signal_OFF as shown in Figure 2B.
Note 10: VTH is the voltage at pin 5 referenced to VCC (see Figure 5).

Detailed Description
The limiting amplifiers consist of a multistage amplifier,

Input Stage
The input stage is shown in Figure 3. It provides 50Ω termination to VREF for each input signal, IN+ and IN-. The
MAX3747A/MAX3747B should be AC-coupled.
Multistage Amplifier
ESD
STRUCTURES
The high-bandwidth multistage amplifier provides approximately 61dB of gain for the MAX3747A/MAX3747B.
Offset Correction Loop
The MAX3747A/MAX3747B are susceptible to DC offsets
in the signal path because they have high gain. In communication systems using NRZ data with a 50% duty
cycle, pulse-width distortion present in the signal or generated in the transimpedance amplifier appears as an input
offset and is reduced by the offset correction loop.
The offset correction loop sets a low-frequency cutoff of
3.2kHz.

CML Output Buffer
The CML outputs of the MAX3747A/MAX3747B limiting
amplifiers provide high tolerance to impedance mismatches and inductive connectors. The output current
is approximately 16mA for the MAX3747A/MAX3747B.
Connecting the DISABLE pin to VCC disables the output. If the LOS pin is connected to the DISABLE pin,
the outputs OUT+ and OUT- are at a static voltage
(squelch) whenever the input signal level drops below
the LOS threshold. The output buffer can be AC- or DCcoupled to the load (Figure 4).
The MAX3747A/MAX3747B output is 800mVP-P.

Loss-of-Signal Indicator
The MAX3747A/MAX3747B are equipped with LOS circuitry that indicates when the input signal is below a programmable threshold, set by a voltage on the TH pin
(see the Typical Operating Characteristics). The voltage
on the TH pin is set by two resistors, one connecting
from the TH pin to VCC and the other connecting from TH
to VREF (Figure 5). An RMS power detector compares
the input signal amplitude with this threshold and feeds
the signal-detect information to the LOS output, which is
open collector. To prevent LOS chatter in the region of
the programmed threshold, approximately 2dB of hysteresis is built into the LOS assert/deassert function.
Once asserted, LOS is not deasserted until the input
amplitude rises to the required level. Figure 6 shows the
LOS output circuit.
VCC
Applications Information
Program the LOS Assert Threshold
Program the LOS assert threshold according to Figure
5. The combination of R TH1 and R TH2 should be
greater than or equal to 5kΩ, see the Assert/Deassert
vs. VTH graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics.
Select the Coupling Capacitor
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 all applications, the recommended value for CIN
and COUT is 0.1µF, which provides fIN equal to 32kHz.
Refer to Application Note HFAN-1.1: Choosing ACCoupling Capacitors on the Maxim website
(www.maximintegrated.com).
