AZ100EP16FE PECL/ECL High Speed VCSEL Driver with Variable Output Swing or Limiting Amplifier www.azmicrotek.com FEATURES • DESCRIPTION • • The AZ100EP16FE is a Silicon–Germanium (SiGe) differential VCSEL driver with variable output swing or limiting post amplifier. The AZ100EP16FE is optimized for OC-12, OC-24, OC-48, Ethernet, Sonnet, Fiber Channel or related applications at data rates up to 2.5Gbps. An input controls the amplitude of the Q/Q ¯ outputs, which allows compensation for differing VCSEL characteristics.

AZ100EP16FE PECL/ECL High Speed VCSEL Driver with Variable Output Swing or Limiting Amplifier ENGINEERING NOTES The operational range of the AZ100EP16FE control input, VCTRL, is from VREF (full swing) to VCC (small swing). For post amplifier applications, maximum swing is achieved by leaving the VCTRL pin open or by tying it to the negative supply pin (VEE). Simple control of the output swing can be obtained by a variable resistor between the VREF and VCC pins, with the wiper driving VCTRL. A typical application circuit is shown in Figure 2. The AZ100EP16FE also provides a VREF output which functions as a DC bias for input AC coupling to the device. The VREF pin should be used only as a bias for the AZ100EP16FE as its current sink/source capability is limited. When used, the VREF pin should be bypassed to ground via a 0.01µF capacitor. The maximum DC output current should be kept below 16mA. Connecting each output (Q/Q ¯ ) to VEE with a 180Ω resistor is typically used. The load is then AC coupled from the output. DC and AC symmetrical loading of the Q/Q ¯ outputs will provide the best output wave shape. Under open input conditions for D/D ¯ , the Q/Q ¯ outputs are not guaranteed. NOTE: Specifications in ECL/PECL tables are valid when thermal equilibrium is established. 5K V CTRL 1 8 V CC D 2 7 Q 3 6 D Q 180 VREF 4 5 180 50 50 VEE - 3.3V Figure 2 - AZ10/100EP16 Large Signal Performance www.azmicrotek.com +1-480-962-5881 Request a Sample 3 July 2013, Rev 2.1 Arizona Microtek, Inc.
