Agilent HFCT-5103B/D SC Duplex
Single Mode Transceiver
Data Sheet
Description
The HFCT-5103 transceiver is a
high performance, cost effective
module for serial optical data
communications applications
specified for a signal rate of
125 MBd. It is designed to provide
an FDDI SMF-PMDl link for FDDI
or Fast Ethernet applications and
is also compatible with
ATM/SONET/SDH transceivers.
This module is designed for single
mode fiber and operates at a
nominal wavelength of 1300 nm.
It incorporates Agilent’s high
performance, reliable, long
wavelength optical devices and
proven circuit technology to give
long life and consistent service.
The transmitter section uses a
Multiple Quantum Well laser with
full IEC 825 and CDRH Class I eye
safety.
The receiver section uses an
MOVPE grown planar PIN
photodetector for low dark
current and excellent
responsivity.
A pseudo-ECL logic interface
simplifies interface to external
circuitry.

Mounting Studs
The mounting studs are provided
for mechanical attachment to the
circuit board. They are embedded
in the nonconductive plastic
housing and are not tied to the
transceiver internal circuit and
should be soldered into
plated-through holes on the
printed circuit board.
Functional Description
Receiver Section
Design
The receiver section contains an
InGaAs/InP photo detector and a
preamplifier within the receptacle,
coupled to a postamp/decision
circuit on a separate circuit board.
These components will also
reduce the sensitivity of the
receiver as the signal bit rate is
increased above 155 MBd.
Noise Immunity
The receiver includes internal
circuit components to filter
power supply noise. Under some
EMI and power supply noise
conditions, external power supply
filtering may be necessary. If
receiver sensitivity is degraded by
power supply noise, the filter
network illustrated in Figure 2
may be employed to improve
performance. The values of the
filter components are general
recommendations and may be
changed to suit a particular
system environment. Shielded
inductors are recommended.
The postamplifier is ac coupled to
the preamplifier as illustrated in
Figure 1. The coupling capacitor
is large enough to pass the FDDI
test pattern at 125 MBd and the
SONET/SDH test pattern at
155 MBd without significant
distortion or performance penalty
If a lower signal rate, or a code
which has significantly more low
frequency content is used,
sensitivity, jitter and pulse
distortion could be degraded.
Figure 1 also shows a filter
network which limits the
bandwidth of the preamp output
signal. The filter is designed to
bandlimit the preamp output
noise and thus improve the
receiver sensitivity.
Terminating the Outputs
The PECL Data outputs of the
receiver may be terminated with
the standard Thevenin-equivalent
50 ohm to VCC -2 V termination.
Other standard PECL terminating
techniques may be used.
The Signal Detect Circuit
The Signal Detect circuit works
by sensing the peak level of the
received signal and comparing
this level to a reference.
DATA OUT
FILTER
TRANSIMPEDANCE
PREAMPLIFIER
The two outputs of the receiver
should be terminated with
identical load circuits to avoid
unnecessary large ac current in
VCC. If the outputs are loaded
identically, the ac current is
largely nulled. The Signal Detect
output of the receiver is PECL
logic and must be loaded if it is to
be used. The Signal Detect circuit
is much slower that the data path,
so the ac noise generated by an
asymmetrical load is negligible.
Power consumption may be
reduced by using a higher than
normal load impedance for the
Signal Detect output.
Transmission line effects are not
generally a problem as the
switching rate is slow.

Functional Description
Transmitter Section
Design
The transmitter section, Figure 3,
uses a Multiple Quantum Well
laser as its optical source. The
packaging of this laser is designed
for repeatable coupling into single
mode fiber while maintaining
compliancy with IEC 825 Class 1
and CDRH Class I eye safety
requirements. The optical output
is controlled by a custom IC which
detects the laser output via the
monitor photodiode. This IC
provides both dc and ac current
drive to the laser to ensure correct
modulation, eye diagram and
extinction ratio over temperature,
supply voltage and life.
PCB mounting
The HFCT-5103 has two
solderable mounting studs. These
studs are not electrically
connected. The transceiver is
designed for common production
processes. It may be wave
soldered and aqueous washed
providing the process plug is in
place.
Each process plug can only be
used once during processing,
although with subsequent use, it
can be used as a dust cover.

Performance Specifications
Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause catastrophic damage to the device. Limits apply to each
parameter in isolation, all other parameters having values within the recommended operating conditions. It should not be
assumed that limiting values of more than one parameter can be applied to the product at the same time. Exposure to the absolute
maximum ratings for extended periods can adversely affect device reliability.
