Operating reliability <500 FITs1 in 15 years. 1- Assumes laser die submount held at <35°C by internal thermoelectric cooler, mean forward current of 35mA, and end of life limits based on 10mA increase in Ith and 25% change in laser efficiency. FIT rate data for other end of life criteria, including minimum extinction ratio requirements, are available upon request. Instructions for Use – LC25WZ Pin 1 and Pin 2 Thermistor The thermistor is used in a control loop in conjunction with the thermo-electric cooler to maintain the laser submount temperature at the required value for wavelength. Operating current should be less than 100µA to prevent self-heating errors. Pin 3 Laser DC bias (-) Laser bias current (negative with respect to package ground) is applied via this pin which forms one side of the bias-T connection to the laser cathode. Pin 4 Monitor anodes, Pin 5 Common Monitor cathode The back facet monitor provides a mean power reference for the laser and is normally operated with a 5V reverse bias. 3 Data Sheet Pin 6 TEC (+), Pin 7 TEC (-) Applying a positive voltage on pin 6 with respect to pin 7 will cause the internal submount to be cooled relative to the case temperature. Reversing the polarity will raise the submount temperature relative to the case. The TEC supply should be capable of delivering up to 0.9A at 2.4V. Pin 8, 9, 11, 13 Case ground These pins must be grounded in all applications Pin 10 This pin is not connected and should be grounded if possible Pin 12 Laser modulation (-) The data input (modulation current) is applied via this pin which is a nominal 25Ω impedance coplanar line. For 10mW applications the end of life modulation current is 90mA maximum. For all other applications 60mA maximum modulation current should be provisioned. Pin 14 N/C This pin is not connected. It should be grounded if possible.
