TOSLINKTM Optical Transmission Device TOSLINKTM is a data transmission device which uses optical signals instead of electrical signals. Its principal features are as follows: Electromagnetic noise has no effect on the transmission line. The transmission line does not radiate any electromagnetic noise. The device is as easy to handle as like a digital IC, and connector assembly is easy. Comparison of TOSLINK and photocoupler The function ability of TOSLINK is similar to that of a photocoupler. A photocoupler has light-emitting and light-receiving devices in one package. It is used to transmit electrical signals in a circuit, for a very short distane. TOSLINK can be imagined as follows: separate the emitting device from the receiving device in the center of a photocoupler, then re-connect the two devices using a long optical fiber cable. Because optical fiber is used as the transmission line, it is possible to transmit signals over long distances while isolating them using TOSLINK. As a result, TOSLINK is also sometimes referred to as a long-distance photocoupler. VCC VCC Input Output (a)Photocoupler VCC VCC Optical fiber Input Optical transmitting module Output Optical receiving module (b)TOSLINK Comparison of TOSLINK and photocoupler Electrical and optical transmission system Electrical data transmission systems consist of the following devices: a line driver and line receiver to amplify electrical signals, a twisted-pair (or coaxial) cable as the transmission line and electrical connectors linking the line driver and line receiver to the electrical cable. By contrast, TOSLINK consist of the following devices: a transmitting module which converts electrical signals into optical ones, a receiving module which reconverts optical signals into electrical ones, optical fiber cable as the transmission line and optical connectors to link the transmitting and receiving modules to the optical fiber cable. In TOSLINK, a transmitting IC (LED driver) and LED are included in the transmitting module, and a receiving IC (waveform-reshaping circuit) and photodiode are included in the receiving module. The interface between transmitting and receiving ICs is at the transistor-transistor logic (TTL) or emitter coupled logic (ECL) levels. Because of this it is easy to make connections with the other circuits.

Sumiguide is a trademark of Sumitomo Electronic Industries Ltd. 2 Optical fiber Cable Optical fiber cable consists of two parts. The center is called the core, the outer layer is called the cladding. The refractive index of the core is higher than that of the cladding. The effect of this arrangement is that when an optical ray is propagated at an angle to the axis of the cable, it is reflected back at the boundary between the core and the cladding, and thereby transmitted longitudinally through the core. Optical ray There are three kinds of optical fiber: a) All-plastic fiber (APF) b) Plastic-cladding silica Fiber (PCF) c) Silica fiber Sheathing Cladding (low refractive index for confinement of light) Core (high refractive index for transmission of light) APF is used for short-distance data transmission. Both the core and the cladding are made of plastic. PCF, which is used for middle distance transmission, has silica core and plastic cladding.Silica fiber is used for longdistance transmission. Both the core and the cladding are made of silica. Structure of optical fiber cable TOSLINK circuit configuration Optical transmission module The LED is driven by a differential circuit in the transmission module, making it possible to decrease current fluctuation when the LED is either on or off. For this reason, this module has no effect on other circuits around it. Transmitting IC LED Input 4 VCC 3 IF-CONT 2 GND 1 Block diagram of transmission module Optical receiving module An ATC (automatic threshold control) circuit is used to reshape the waveform in the receiving module. The ATC circuit controls the comparator reference voltage so that it is always automatically adjusted as the input optical power changes. For this reason there will be little pulse width distortion even when the length or degree of bending conditions of the optical fiber are changed.

One is a molded resin package. It is used for ordinary applications. The other is ceramic, used for applications requiring exceptionally high reliability. The structure of the internal units of these two packages is shown in the figure on the right. In the case of the molded resin type, the devices are mounted on a lead frame and molded in with transparent resin. In the ceramic package the devices are mounted on a ceramic substrate, and hermetically sealed by a metal shell. The ceramic package features better resistance against humidity and temperature than the molded resin type.

One is the TOSLINK 170 Series which was the first generation of TOSLINK. The other is the TOSLINK 190 Series, which is part of the new generation. The main technical features of modules for general-purpose use in the TOSLINK 190 Series are as follows: Data transmission rate:Up to 6 Mb/s or 8 Mb/s. Transmission distance: Up to 1000 m with PCF. Up to 40 m with APF. Wider dynamic range: 6 dB wider than the TOSLINK 170 Series. Constant external resistor value irrespective of transmission distance. There are two connector types, the F05 (simplex) and F07 (duplex), which are available for both the TOSLINK 170 and 190 Series devices. Application circuits Application circuits for the TOTX197 and TORX196, a pair of transmitting and receiving modules for general-purpose use, are shown in the figure on the right. For the TOTX197 transmission module, an external resistor is required to supply current to the LED. For the TORX196 receiving module, a noise filter must be placed on the power line. The module case is made of conductive resin in order to have a shielding effect against noise. All case pins must be securely grounded. There are also duplex modules in the general-purpose TOSLINK series devices, but application circuits for these are generally the same as for simplex modules. Interfaces in these modules are all at the transistor-transistor logic (TTL) level; hence it is easy to connect them with other circuits.

In addition there is also one receiving module (TORX198) with an analog output for amplifier. The analog output voltage (output voltage of the amplifier in the receiving circuit) depends on the optical power input into the receiving module. Hence, it is possible to measure optical flux without an optical power meter, by monitoring this analog output terminal. When an optical flux-monitoring function is not required, this receiving module is used for digital data transmission, like the other TOSLINK receiving modules. In this case this analog output pin should be kept open. There is also the optical module product having flux-monitoring functions such the duplex type TODX298 (for PCF cables).

In these modules the LED, photodiode, transmission IC, receiving IC and chip capacitors are all mounted on a ceramic substrate and hermetically sealed in metal shells. These ceramic-package modules are used in applications requiring high levels of reliability. Structure of a ceramic-package module (transceiving unit) The optical transceiving units used in optical modules have the following structure as shown in the figure on the right. The LED, the transmitting IC which drives the LED and the chip capacitor are mounted on a ceramic substrate. In this particular unit the photodiode, the receiving IC (which features a waveform-reshaping function) and the chip capacitors are also mounted on the same ceramic substrate. These devices are hermetically sealed in metal shells with glass windows.

Just like a general-purpose optical module, this product incorporates a transmitting IC which drives an LED, and an on-chip receiving IC with a waveform-reshaping function. It is easy to connect this module to peripheral circuits, since its input and output are both TTL-level. This module is compatible with PN-type connectors and JIS F7-type fiberoptic connectors. Main Specifications of the TODX283 Data rate: DC to 50 Mb/s (NRZ code) Transmission distance: 10 m (max) (via APF cable) 100 m (max) (via PCF cable) Pulse width distortion: less than ±7 ns Center wavelength: 650nm Operating temperature: –10°C to 70°C TTL interface External appearance of optical tranceiving module TODX283 7 Optical Modules for High-Speed Data Transmission Optical modules for high-speed data transmission support two types of optical connectors, small multimedia interface (SMI) and premises network (PN). The SMI optical connector is designed for use in digital home appliances and enables bi-directional (duplex) optical communication with its size as small as the simplex optical connector used for home digital audio equipment. The PN optical connector is the modification of JIS F07 optical connector which has achieved success in industry application. s uct rod P New Optical Tranceiving Module with SMI Connector (TODX2402) The TODX2402 optical tranceiving module is an optical transceiver used with the SMI connector which is designed for use in digital home appliances.

Optical Fiberless Modules Optical fiberless modules are used for high-speed data transmission and do not require optical fiber cables; hence, they are called optical fiberless (OFL) modules. Just like TOSLINK devices (which do require optical-fiber cables), these devices incorporate an on-chip transmission IC which drives an LED, and an on-chip receiving IC with a waveform-reshaping function. As a result, it is easy to connect OFL modules to peripheral ICs. s uct rod P New Optical fiberless modules (TOTX1500 and TORX1500) Main Specifications of the TOTX1500 and TORX1500 Data rate: 20 to 125 Mb/s (NRZ code) Transmission distance: 3 cm (max) TORX1500 Center wavelength: 870 nm TOTX1500 Operating temperature: 0°C to 60°C On-chip transmitting and receiving IC Supply voltage: 3.3 V ± 0.3 V PECL interface External appearances of optical fiberless modules TOTX1500 and TORX1500 OFL application The use of TOTX1500 and TORX1500 OFL modules in notebook PCs, DV cameras and high-performance PDAs enables high-speed data transmission between devices.

The interface level and fiber-optic connector configuration conform to the JEITA standards CP-1201 and RC-5720 respectively. This module is therefore ideal for use in a wide variety of fields ranging from audio equipment such as CD, MD and DVD players to sound applications for personal computers and computer entertainment systems. The digital audio TOSLINK comes in a standard package (panel mount type), a medium-sized package (for PC sound cards) and a mini-package (for portable devices). Choose the package which is most suitable for your application. Optical module packages for digital audio Connection method The diagram shows the TOTX179 and TORX179 optical module connections for general audio applications. Please connect a bypass capacitor to the optical transmitting module TOTX179 and a capacitor and inductor noise filter to the optical receiving module TORX179. Since the optical transmitting module TORX179 incorporates a resistor for supplying current to the LED driver, no external resistors are required. Products with different packages, such as the TOTX179S and the TORX179P, can also be connected and used in the same way.

Also, the TOTX141PL is an optical transmission module with shutter, which can operate at a data rate of up to 15 Mb/s. It is housed in a mini package. The TORX141L is a panel mount optical receiving module with shutter, is an optical receiving module with shutter, which can operate at a data rate of up to 15 Mb/s. It is housed in a mini package. The TOTX141L, TOTX141PL, TORX141L and TORX141PL can operate at 3-V supply voltage. Operating at a data rate of 15 Mb/s allows the modules to be used in digital audio equipment such as DVD players, which uses a sampling frequency of 96 kHz, as well as the conventional audio application, such as CD players and mini disc players. Since these modules conform to the JEITA digital audio interface standard, they can be combined with existing digital audio TOSLINK products. Toshiba also provides the optical transmission modules TOTX179L and TOTX179PL, and the optical receiving modules TORX179L and TORX179PL. These modules operate at 5-V supply voltage. 10 TOTX141L TORX141PL TOTX141L TORX141PL External appearances of TOTX141L/141PL and TORX141L/141PL Optical Fiber Cables with Fiber-Optic Connectors The TOSLINK product line includes are optical-fiber cables with fiber-optic connectors which conform to JIS F05 and JIS F07 standards.

This is due to deterioration over time in the level of optical output of the LED used as the light source. The drop in the LED's optical output is thought to be caused by crystal flaws in the wafer or stress in the mold resin, although the detailed causes are not clear. Although LEDs used for optical communications are generally considered to have an almost infinite lifetime, their optical output does fall over time. The life of light-emitting devices is greatly affected by the operating conditions and operating environment as well as by the lifespan characteristics of the particular device.Toshiba recommends that the user first check a device's lifetime characteristics before selecting it and setting its operating conditions. For information on reliability, contact a Toshiba sales office. Regular maintenance, such as a check on the amount of light emitted is recommended. In the case of the red LEDs used in the TOTX195 and TODX297, for example, a light-absorbing layer may form on the surface of the LED as the aluminum in the liquid crystal oxidizes, causing the optical output to fall. Since this tendency is pronounced in high-humidity environments, it is recommended that products containing red LEDs not be used in such environments. For highhumidity environments or applications requiring a long lifespan, Toshiba recommends a TOSLINK ceramic-package optical module. (2) Soldering Optical modules use semiconductor devices but are essentially optical components. When soldering, ensure that flux does not adhere to the light-emitting or light-receiving surfaces. Take the same care when cleaning off flux after soldering. Some optical modules include a protective cap. This cap is intended to prevent accidental operation when the module is not in use. It is not dust- or waterproof. Because the optical module is an optical component, Toshiba does not recommends soldering methods or post-solder flux cleaning methods in case where flux could affect the module. Toshiba recommends first soldering without mounting the module, then cleaning the PCB. The module should then be hand-soldered and no subsequent cleaning should be performed. If it is not possible to hand-solder the module, one way of avoiding the effect sof flux is to use non-halogen (chlorine-free) flux, taking care not to leave chlorine or other residue, and omitting the post-solder cleaning. In such cases too, the reliability of the device must be checked. Be sure to check the reliability of the device. (3) Noise Resistance The case for the TOSLINK (simplex) optical receiving module and (duplex) optical transceiver module is made of conductive plastic. The case is designed to provide shielding when the reinforced pin at the front of the module is grounded. When the module is used, this pin should be connected SIGNAL-GND. Since the case for the optical receiving module and optical transceiver module has a resistance of several tens of ohms, ensure that the case does not touch the power line or any other circuits. Generally, the use of optical transmission devices is considered to improve noise resistance. While optical fibers are certainly not affected by noise, optical modules, particularly receiver modules, are comparatively easily affected by noise because they handle such minute current signals. To improve noise resistance, the TOSLINK case is treated to make it conductive. However, since the signal output from the optical receiving modules photodiode is a minute current signal, in some environments simply shielding the case will not protect against noise. When using a TOSLINK device, conduct live tests to check noise resistance. A simple noise filter is mandatory for the power lines for the TOSLINK optical receiving module and optical transceiver module. However, in the case of significant power supply ripples, further filter reinforcement is also necessary. In addition, when the optical module is placed in a location susceptible to emission noise, Toshiba recommends covering the optical module and power supply filter with a metal cover to enhance the shielding. (4) Protective Cap When the optical module is not in use, cover it with the protective cap. Take particular care with the optical receiving module since, depending on the circuit used, extraneous light may be input to the module when the TOSLINK device is not in use and may adversely affect other circuits. (5) Vibration, Shock and Stress Plastic-molded optical modules are plastic-sealed devices whose wires are fixed with resin. While this structure makes them comparatively resistant to vibration and shock, wire breakage has been observed in equipment in which the module is used when the soldering and connections are exposed to vibration, shock or stress. Therefore, when using a plastic-molded optical module in equipment with high vibration levels, ensure that the structure is designed to withstand vibration, shock and stress. Ceramic-package optical modules are ceramic-sealed, with a hollow interior. Since the wires in the module are not fixed, the module is susceptible to vibration and shock. Therefore, when using a ceramic-package optical module in equipment which is subject to high levels of vibration and shock, ensure that the structure of the equipment is designed to withstand vibration, shock and stress. 18 (6) Supply Voltage Modules should be used with a supply voltage within the standard operating conditions. Ensure that the supply voltage does not exceed the absolute maximum rating even momentarily. (7) Input Voltage If a voltage exceeding the absolute maximum rating is applied to the transmitter input, the internal IC may be adversely affected or destroyed. If there is a possibility of excessive input voltage due to a surge, for example, add a protector circuit to the input. (8) Output Note that internal ICs can be damaged when the receiver output is low and the output is shorted to the power supply, or when output is high and is shorted to GND. (9) Handling Optical Fiber Cables Do not drop heavy or sharp metal objects onto the optical fiber cable. If the fiber cable breaks, data cannot be transmitted. Also, transmission loss increases with sharp bends in the fiber cable. Toshiba recommend that, if the cable must be bent during installation, the bent section should have as large a radius as possible (six to ten times the minimum bending radius). Some fiber-optic connectors are vertical connectors. When inserting a fiber-optic connector, note the directionality of the connection. When coupling or decoupling a fiber optic connector, be sure to hold the connector itself. Do not decouple a fiberoptic connector by pulling on the optical-fiber cord. (10) Assembling Fiber-Optic Connectors Since specialized assembly tools are available for the fiber-optic connectors used with TOSLINK devices, people without specialist knowledge can assemble the connectors. However, the person who assembled the product is responsible for its characteristics and quality. When a connector is to be used in an application where reliability is essential,Toshiba recommends purchasing a preassembled product or contacting a specialist with the necessary expertise. (11) Absolute Maximum Ratings The absolute maximum ratings must never be exceeded, even momentarily. Even a single rating value must never be exceeded. The nature of the absolute maximum ratings depend on the product but generally include such parameters as the input and output currents, input voltage, storage temperature, operating temperature and lead temperature. If the input current or voltage exceeds the absolute maximum rating value, overvoltage and overcurrent can adversely affect the internal circuitry of the device. If the rating is grossly exceeded, the wiring may fuse due to heating in the internal circuits, or the circuitry in the semiconductor chips may be destroyed. If, for example, the absolute maximum operating temperature, storage temperature or soldering temperature rating is exceeded, the differences in the coefficients of thermal expansion of the various materials that make up the device can damage the sealing or open up bonded parts. When using TOSLINK devices, never exceed any of the absolute maximum ratings. (12) Recommended Operating Conditions The recommended operating conditions are conditions recommended to ensure the operation described in the individual datasheets. To improve the reliability of a device even further, use the device with a derated maximum voltage, current, temperature or other parameter. Note that the recommended operating conditions are intended to guarantee the stated operation and do not always guarantee characteristic values. (13) Smoke and Fire Since optical modules, connectors and fiber cables are flammable, scorching or burning them may cause them to emit smoke or burst into flame, which can in turn cause gas emissions. Therefore, do not use these devices in the vicinity of flames, smoke or any flammable materials. (14) Disposal Precautions TOSLINK devices and packaging materials must be disposed of by the user as industrial waste products in an environmentally appropriate way and in accordance with the law. (15) Application Precautions While Toshiba strives to improve the quality and reliability of their products, semiconductor products in general can malfunction or break down. When using a Toshiba semiconductor product, it is the purchaser's responsibility to design safe equipment which does not cause loss of life, injury or damage to property. When incorporating a Toshiba device into a product, check the latest product specifications of the Toshiba device and ensure that all parameters remain within the absolute maximum ratings and recommended operating condition ranges. In addition, follow the stipulations in Precautions for Handling Toshiba Semiconductor Products and the Toshiba Semiconductor Reliability Handbook, with regard to the precautions and conditions described in those document. 19 OVERSEAS SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES 020617 (G) Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc.
