AFBR-1644Z and AFBR-2644Z
DC, 50 Megabaud Versatile Link
Fiber Optic Transmitter and Receiver for 1 mm POF
Data Sheet
Description
Features
The AFBR-1644Z transmitter utilizes a 650 nm LED source
with integrated optics and driver IC for efficient coupling
into 1 mm Polymer Optical Fiber (POF). The AFBR-2644Z
receiver consists of an IC with an integrated photodiode
to produce a logic compatible output. The transmitter
input and receiver output are compatible with TTL logic
families. The pair operates any type of signal from DC up
to 50 MBd at distances up to 50 meters with 1 mm POF.
The AFBR-xx44Z deliver non inverted output signals.
 RoHS-compliant
The transmitter is a 3-pin and the receiver is a 4-pin device,
packed in Versatile Link housing. Versatile Link components can be interlocked (N-plexed together) to minimize
space and to provide dual connections with the duplex
connectors. Various simplex and duplex connectors, as
well as POF cables are available for Versatile Link components. Please contact Avago Technologies for details or
visit our company website at www.avagotech.com

Package and Handling Information
Interlocked (Stacked) Assemblies (refer to Figure 1)
The Versatile Link package is made of a flame retardant
VALOX UL 94 V-0 material (UL file # E121562) and uses
the same pad layout as a standard, eight pin dual-in-line
package. These Versatile Link packages are stackable and
are enclosed to provide a dust resistant seal. Snap action
simplex, simplex latching, duplex, and duplex latching
connectors are offered with simplex or duplex cables.
Initially engage the inter-locking mechanism by sliding
the L bracket body from above into the L slot body of the
lower package. Stacked horizontal packages can be disengaged if necessary. Repeated stacking and unstacking
causes no damage to individual units.
Package Housing Color
Versatile Link components and simplex connectors are
color coded to eliminate confusion when making connections. Receivers are black and transmitters are grey.
Handling
Versatile Link components are auto-insertable. When
wave soldering is performed with Versatile Link components, the optical port plug should be left in to prevent
contamination of the port. Do not use reflow solder
processes (i.e., infrared reflow or vapor-phase reflow).
Non-halogenated water soluble fluxes (i.e., 0% chloride),
not rosin based fluxes, are recommended for use with
Versatile Link components.
Versatile Link components are moisture sensitive devices
and are shipped in a moisture sealed bag. If the components are exposed to air for an extended period of time,
they may require a baking step before the soldering
process. Refer to the special labeling on the shipping tube
for details.

Notes:

2. Standard TTL compatible input.
3. Measured after 1meter 0.5 NA 1mm POF with polished connector end face.
4. Pulse width is measured at 50% threshold using a rising edge trigger tested with PRBS-7 pattern
5. Electrical input pulse width is determined at 1.5 V and dU/dt between 1 V and 2 V shall not be less than 1 V/ns.
6. The first pulse is shorter as the LED is completely discharged. This helps to mitigate the increase of pulse width of the first pulse of the Receiver

Notes:
1. Standard TTL output.
2. Measured with RL = 50 k and CL = 15 pF
3. Optical Power generated by a standard Avago Technologies Transmitter, with ideal alignment to the photodiode using a 1 mm POF (NA = 0.5).
6. Optical input of 50 MBaud PRBS-7 pattern and 50% duty cycle.
7. Pulse width is measured at 50% threshold using a rising edge trigger and PRBS-7 pattern.
8. If data rate is below 1Mbaud the pulse width distortion would be equal to the pulse width distortion of the 1st to 3rd pulses for higher datarates.
9. The threshold of the 1st pulse of a data sequence is difficult to adjust and therefore the pulse width distortion up to the 3rd pulse is higher than
for all other pulses (worst case for the 1st pulse). This strongly depends on the quality of the rising and falling edge of the optical input. The faster
the edges the smaller the pulse width variation. Furthermore lower data rates would result in the same issue as all the pulse become 1st pulses.
10. Output low for AFBR-2644Z.
