PDIC for Blu-ray Disc Player
CXA2958EN
Description
The CXA2958EN is a PDIC (photodetector IC) developed as a photodetector for optical pickups of Blu-ray disc players.
This IC has the photodetector area separately for BD/DVD and CD. Therefore, the optical pickup can be configured with the
minimum number of parts using the two-wavelength one package laser diode.
(Applications: Optical pickups for Blu-ray disc players)
Features
◆ CD/DVD/BD three wavelengths supported (Blue laser + CD/DVD two-wavelength laser configuration)
◆ Gain switching function (0 dB, 9 dB and 15 dB)
◆ High sensitivity photodiode (0.285 A/W @ 405 nm)
◆ Low noise amplifier
◆ Reflow mounting possible
Package
Open photodetector type resin molded ultra-small package (18 pin)
Structure
CMOS silicon monolithic IC

Notes on Measurement (for all modes)
1. Vc is the reference for output offset voltage of A to D and E to H.
2. Output voltage: Vc is the reference for A to D and E to H. 1.6 V is the reference for RF+. 2.9 V is the reference for RF–.
Then, the offset voltage is excluded.
3. GND is the reference for the maximum output potential and minimum output potential.
4. Items with an asterisk (*) are design guaranteed items.
5. Measurement by optical input: Measurement is made by emitting light to the center of each photodiode.
6. Load conditions (for Vc) are as follows.): A to D: 2.5 kΩ//5 pF,
E to H: 10 kΩ//5 pF,
RF±: 0.1 μF + (2.5 kΩ//5 pF)

Notes on Handling
1. Mechanical strength of package
The mechanical strength of the package is not guaranteed for the CXA2958EN.
Do not employ a mounting method which applies a heavy load to the package such as supporting a board with the
package.
2. Visual inspection standards
The visual inspection standards over the photodetector are as follows.
(1) Foreign object limit
: Equivalent area 10 μmϕ or less
(2) Inspection method
: Focus on the photodetector and measure the size of the foreign object.
(3) Inspection range
: Entire photodetector area (on page 12)
3. Bypass capacitors
Connect 0.1 μF capacitors between the Vcc and GND pins and between the Vc and GND pins to lower the power supply
line impedance. Use a flexible printed circuit (FPC) pattern or take other measures so that the bypass capacitors can be
located near (3 mm or less) the PDIC.
4. Soldering
It has been confirmed that the following conditions are satisfied for the reflow soldering.
R390 and IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D MSL 3
Floor Life 30 ˚C 60 % RH 168 hours
<Reflow soldering recommended conditions in actual use>
(1) Perform infrared or hot air reflow, or use an oven that combines these methods.
(2) Perform reflow soldering a maximum of three times.
(3) Finish reflow soldering within the conditions of 30 ˚C and 60 % RH in 168 hours after unsealing the
moisture-proof packing.
(4) Mount this IC at the reflow peak temperature of 255 ˚C or less according to the reflow profile of
IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D.
(5) Unless reflow soldering can be performed within the specifications above, bake the IC before reflow soldering.
[Baking conditions]
・125 ˚C, 10 to 48 h
・Transfer to a heat proof tray or a heat proof vessel for baking.
・Perform baking only one time.
(6) Finish reflow soldering within the specifications above after baking.
5. Others
(1) If outgas is emitted from the materials used such as an uncured portion of the adhesive, foreign objects may deposit
on the photodetector by laser irradiation. Cure the adhesive thoroughly and check it thoroughly by laser aging, etc.
(2) This package has a bare-chip structure. Avoid using materials that emit strong corrosive outgas.
