Block Diagram Transmitter Section The transmitter section of the HFCT-5201 consists of a 1300 nm InGaAsP laser in an eyesafe optical subassembly (OSA) which mates to the fiber cable. The laser OSA is driven by a custom, silicon bipolar IC which converts differential input PECL logic signals, ECL referenced to a +5 V supply, into an analog laser drive current.

Power Monitor Circuit 2 W Receiver Section The receiver utilizes an InGaAs PIN photodiode mounted together with a silicon bipolar transimpedance preamplifier IC in an OSA. This OSA is connected to a silicon bipolar circuit providing post- amplification quantization, and optical signal detection. The post amp circuit includes a Signal Detect circuit which provides a PECL logic-high output upon detection of a usable input optical signal level. Signal Detect is a basic fiber failure indicator. This single-ended PECL output is designed to drive a standard PECL input. Laser AC 30 R The laser bias monitor circuit is shown in Figure 2a, the power monitor circuit in Figure 2b. Receiver Signal Detect As the input optical power is decreased, Signal Detect will switch from high to low (de-assert point) somewhere between sensitivity and the no light input level. As the input optical power is increased from very low levels, Signal Detect will switch back from low to high (assert point). The assert level will be at least 0.5 dB higher than the de-assert level. Transceiver Specified for Wide Temperature Range Operation The HFCT-5201 is specified for operation over normal commercial temperature range of 0° to +70°C (HFCT-5201B/D) or the extended temperature range of -40° to +85°C (HFCT-5201A/C) in an airflow of 2 m/s.

The typical trade-off of BER versus Relative Input Optical Power is shown in Figure 3. The Relative Input Optical Power in dB is referenced to the Input Optical Power parameter value in the Receiver Optical Characteristics table. For BER conditions better than 1 x 10-10, more input signal is needed (+dB). 10-2 BIT ERROR RATIO 10 -3 10-4 10-5 10-6 10-7 10-8 10-9 10-10 10-11 10-12 10-13 10-14 10-15 LINEAR EXTRAPOLATION OF 10 -4 THROUGH 10-7 DATA ACTUAL DATA -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 These filter circuits suppress VCC noise of 100 mV peak-to-peak or less over a broad frequency range. This prevents receiver sensitivity degradation due to VCC noise. It is recommended that surface-mount components be used. Use tantalum capacitors for the 10 µF capacitors and monolithic, ceramic bypass capacitors for the 0.1 µF capacitors. Also, it is suppress noise from influencing the fiber-optic transceiver performance, especially the receiver circuit. Proper power supply filtering of VCC for this transceiver is accomplished by using the recommended separate filter circuits shown in Figure 4, the Recommended Circuit Schematic diagram for the transmitter and receiver sections. Figure 3. Relative Input Optical Power - dBm. Avg. Recommended Circuit Schematic In order to ensure proper functionality of the HFCT-5201 a recommended circuit is provided in Figure 4. When designing the circuit interface, there are a few fundamental guidelines to follow. For example, in the Recommended Circuit Schematic figure the differential data lines should be treated as 50 ohm Microstrip or stripline transmission lines. This will help to minimize the parasitic inductance and capacitance effects. Proper termination of the differential data signals will prevent reflections and ringing which would compromise the signal fidelity and generate unwanted electrical noise. Locate termination at the received signal end of the transmission line. The length of these lines should be kept short and of equal length. For the high speed signal lines, differential signals should be used, not single-ended signals, and these differential signals need to be loaded symmetrically to prevent unbalanced currents from flowing which will cause distortion in the signal. Maintain a solid, low inductance ground plane for returning signal currents to the power supply. Multilayer plane printed circuit board is best for distribution of VCC, returning ground currents, forming transmission lines and shielding, Also, it is important to 3 Rx Tx NO INTERNAL CONNECTION NO INTERNAL CONNECTION TOP VIEW VEER 18 RD 17 RD 16 SD 15 VCCR VCCT 14 13 NC 1 NC 2 NC 3 NC 4 LMON LMON (-) (+) TxDIS 5 6 7 TD 12 TD 11 VEET 10 NC 8 PMON 9 C8 C2 C1 C7 VCC L1 L2 VCC TERMINATE AT THE DEVICE INPUTS R5 C3 R7 C6 R6 R8 R2 R3 R1 C5 C4 LOCATE FILTER AT VCC PINS R9 R4 TERMINATE AT FIBER-OPTIC TRANSCEIVER INPUTS R10 RD RD SD VCC TD TD NOTES: THE SPLIT-LOAD TERMINATIONS FOR PECL SIGNALS NEED TO BE LOCATED AT THE INPUT OF DEVICES RECEIVING THOSE PECL SIGNALS.

Recommended Circuit Schematic recommended that a surfacemount coil inductor of 3.3 µH be used. Ferrite beads can be used to replace the coil inductors when using quieter VCC supplies, but a coil inductor is recommended over a ferrite bead. Coils with a low, series dc resistance (<0.7 ohms) and high, self-resonating frequency are recommended. All power supply components need to be placed physically next to the VCC pins of the receiver and transmitter. Use a good, uniform ground plane with a minimum number of holes to provide a low-inductance ground current return for the power supply currents. Evaluation Circuit Boards Evaluation circuit boards implementing this recommended circuit design are available from Agilent’s Application Engineering staff. Contact your local Agilent sales representative to arrange for access to one if needed. Operation in -5.2 V Designs For applications that require -5.2 V dc power supply level for true ECL logic circuits, the HFCT-5201 transceiver can be operated with a VCC = 0 V dc and a VEE = -5.2 V dc. This transceiver is not specified with an operating, negative power supply voltage. The potential compromises that can occur with use of -5.2 V dc power are that the absolute voltage states for VOH and VOL will be changed slightly due to the 0.2 V difference in supply levels. Also, noise immunity may be compromised for the HFCT-5201 transceiver because the ground plane is now the VCC supply point. The suggested power supply filter circuit shown in Figure 4, Recommended Circuit Schematic, should be located in the VEE paths at the transceiver supply pins. Direct coupling of the differential data signals can be done between the HFCT-5201 transceiver and the standard ECL circuits. 4 2 x Ø 1.9 ± 0.1 (0.075 ±0.004) 20.32 (0.8) 33.02 (1.3) 2.54 (0.1) 18 x Ø 0.8 ± 0.1 (0.031 ±0.004) 2.54 (0.1) TOP VIEW Figure 5.

Package Outline Drawing and Pinout 5 Regulatory Compliance The HFCT-5201 is intended to enable commercial system designers to develop equipment that complies with the various regulations governing certification of Information Technology Equipment. See the Regulatory Compliance Table 1 for details. Additional information is available from your Agilent sales representative. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) There are two design cases in which immunity to ESD damage is important. The first case is during handling of the transceiver prior to mounting it on the circuit board. It is important to use normal ESD handling precautions for ESD sensitive devices. These precautions include using grounded wrist straps, work benches and floor mats in ESD controlled areas. The second case to consider is static discharges to the exterior of the equipment chassis containing the transceiver parts. To the extent that the duplex SC connector is exposed to the outside of the equipment chassis it may be subject to whatever ESD system level test criteria that the equipment is intended to meet. Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Most equipment designs utilizing these high-speed transceivers from Agilent will be required to meet the requirements of FCC in the United States, CENELEC EN55022 (CISPR 22) in Europe and VCCI in Japan. Immunity Equipment utilizing these HFCT-5201 transceivers will be subject to radio-frequency electromagnetic fields in some environments. These transceivers, with their integral shields, have been characterized without the benefit of a normal equipment chassis enclosure and the results are reported below. Performance of a system containing these transceivers within a well designed chassis is expected to be better than the results of these tests without a chassis enclosure. The HFCT-5201 has been characterized without a chassis enclosure to demonstrate the robustness of the part’s integral shielding. Performance of a system containing these transceivers within a well designed chassis is expected to be better than the results of these tests with no chassis enclosure. Table 1.
