Handling and Design Information
Each part comes with a
protective port cap or plug
covering the optics. These caps/
plugs will vary by port style.
When soldering, it is advisable
to leave the protective cap on
the unit to keep the optics clean.
Good system performance
requires clean port optics and
cable ferrules to avoid
obstructing the optical path.
Clean compressed air often is
sufficient to remove particles of
dirt; methanol on a cotton swab
also works well.

5 MBd Logic Link Design
If resistor R1 in Figure 2 is 70.4
W, a forward current IF of 48 mA
is applied to the HFBR-14x4
LED transmitter. With IF = 48
mA the HFBR-14x4/24x2 logic
link is guaranteed to work with
62.5/125 µm fiber optic cable
over the entire range of 0 to
1750 meters at a data rate of dc
to 5 MBd, with arbitrary data
format and pulse width
distortion typically less than
25%. By setting R1 = 115 W, the
transmitter can be driven with
IF = 30 mA, if it is desired to
economize on power or achieve
lower pulse distortion.
The following example will
illustrate the technique for
selecting the appropriate value
of IF and R1.
Maximum distance required =
400 meters. From Figure 3 the
drive current should be 15 mA.
From the transmitter data VF =
1.5 V (max.) at IF = 15 mA as
shown in Figure 9.
R1 = VCC − VF = 5V − 1.5V
IF
15 mA
R1 = 233 Ω
The curves in Figures 3, 4, and 5
are constructed assuming no
inline splice or any additional
system loss. Should the link
consists of any in-line splices,
these curves can still be used to
calculate link limits provided
they are shifted by the
additional system loss expressed
in dB. For example, Figure 3
indicates that with 48 mA of
transmitter drive current, a 1.75
km link distance is achievable
with 62.5/125 µm fiber which
has a maximum attenuation of 4
dB/km. With 2 dB of additional
system loss, a 1.25 km link
distance is still achievable.

HFBR-14x2/14x4 Low-Cost HighSpeed Transmitters
Description
The HFBR-14xx fiber optic
transmitter contains an 820 nm
AlGaAs emitter capable of
efficiently launching optical
power into four different optical
fiber sizes: 50/125 µm, 62.5/125
µm, 100/140 µm, and 200 µm
HCS®. This allows the designer
flexibility in choosing the fiber
size. The HFBR-14xx is designed
to operate with the Agilent
HFBR-24xx fiber optic receivers.
The HFBR-14xx transmitter’s
high coupling efficiency allows
the emitter to be driven at low
current levels resulting in low
power consumption and
increased reliability of the
transmitter. The HFBR-14x4
high power transmitter is
optimized for small size fiber
and typically can launch -15.8
dBm optical power at 60 mA
into 50/125 µm fiber and -12
dBm into 62.5/125 µm fiber. The
HFBR-14x2 standard
transmitter typically can launch
-12 dBm of optical power at 60
mA into 100/140 µm fiber cable.
It is ideal for large size fiber
such as 100/140 µm. The high
launched optical power level is
useful for systems where star
couplers, taps, or inline
connectors create large fixed
losses.
Consistent coupling efficiency is
assured by the double-lens
optical system (Figure 1). Power
coupled into any of the three
fiber types varies less than 5 dB
from part to part at a given drive
current and temperature.
Consistent coupling efficiency
reduces receiver dynamic range
requirements which allows for
longer link lengths.

Notes:
1. For I FPK > 100 mA, the time duration should not exceed 2 ns.
2. Typical data at TA = +25 °C.
3. Thermal resistance is measured with the transmitter coupled to a connector assembly and mounted on a printed circuit board.
4. D is measured at the plane of the fiber face and defines a diameter where the optical power density is within 10 dB of the maximum.
5. PT is measured with a large area detector at the end of 1 meter of mode stripped cable, with an ST® precision ceramic ferrule (MILSTD- 83522/13)
for HFBR-1412/1414, and with an SMA 905 precision ceramic ferrule for HFBR-1402/1404.
6. When changing mW to dBm, the optical power is referenced to 1 mW (1000 mW). Optical Power P (dBm) = 10 log P (mW)/1000 mW.
7. Pre-bias is recommended if signal rate >10 MBd, see recommended drive circuit in Figure 11.
8. Pins 2, 6 and 7 are welded to the anode header connection to minimize the thermal resistance from junction to ambient. To further reduce the
thermal resistance, the anode trace should be made as large as is consistent with good RF circuit design.
9. Fiber NA is measured at the end of 2 meters of mode stripped fiber, using the far-field pattern. NA is defined as the sine of the half angle, determined
at 5% of the peak intensity point. When using other manufacturer’s fiber cable, results will vary due to differing NA values and specification
methods.
All HFBR-14XX LED transmitters are classified as IEC 825-1 Accessible Emission Limit (AEL) Class 1 based upon the current proposed
draft scheduled to go in to effect on January 1, 1997. AEL Class 1 LED devices are considered eye safe. Contact your Agilent sales
representative for more information.
CAUTION: The small junction sizes inherent to the design of these components increase the components’ susceptibility to damage
from electrostatic discharge (ESD). It is advised that normal static precautions be taken in handling and assembly of these
components to prevent damage and/or degradation which may be induced by ESD.

Recommended Drive Circuits
The circuit used to supply
current to the LED transmitter
can significantly influence the
optical switching characteristics
of the LED. The optical rise/fall
times and propagation delays
can be improved by using the
appropriate circuit techniques.
The LED drive circuit shown in
RY
Figure 11 uses frequency
compensation to reduce the
typical rise/fall times of the LED
and a small pre-bias voltage to
minimize propagation delay
differences that cause pulsewidth distortion. The circuit will
typically produce rise/fall times
of 3 ns, and a total jitter
including pulse-width distortion
of less than 1 ns. This circuit is
recommended for applications
requiring low edge jitter or high-

HFBR-24x2 Low-Cost 5 MBd
Receiver
Description
The HFBR-24x2 fiber optic
receiver is designed to operate
with the Agilent HFBR-14xx
fiber optic transmitter and 50/
125 µm, 62.5/125 µm, 100/ 140
µm, and 200 µm HCS® fiber
optic cable. Consistent coupling
into the receiver is assured by
the lensed optical system
(Figure 1). Response does not
vary with fiber size ≤ 0.100 µm.
The HFBR-24x2 receiver
incorporates an integrated photo
IC containing a photodetector
and dc amplifier driving an
opencollector Schottky output
transistor. The HFBR-24x2 is
designed for direct interfacing to
popular logic families. The
absence of an internal pull-up
resistor allows the opencollector output to be used with
logic families such as CMOS
requiring voltage excursions
much higher than VCC.
Both the open-collector “Data”
output Pin 6 and VCC Pin 2 are
referenced to “Com” Pin 3, 7.
The “Data” output allows busing,
strobing and wired “OR” circuit
configurations. The transmitter
is designed to operate from a
single +5 V supply. It is essential
that a bypass capacitor (0.1 mF
ceramic) be connected from Pin
2 (VCC) to Pin 3 (circuit
common) of the receiver.

4. D is the effective diameter of the detector image on the plane of the fiber face. The numerical value is the product of the actual detector diameter
and the lens magnification.
5. Measured at the end of 100/140 mm fiber optic cable with large area detector.
6. Propagation delay through the system is the result of several sequentially-occurring phenomena. Consequently it is a combination of data-ratelimiting effects and of transmission-time effects. Because of this, the data-rate limit of the system must be described in terms of time differentials
between delays imposed on falling and rising edges.
7. As the cable length is increased, the propagation delays increase at 5 ns per meter of length. Data rate, as limited by pulse width distortion, is not
affected by increasing cable length if the optical power level at the receiver is maintained.
CAUTION: The small junction sizes inherent to the design of these components increase the components’ susceptibility to damage
from electrostatic discharge (ESD). It is advised that normal static precautions be taken in handling and assembly of these
components to prevent damage and/or degradation which may be induced by ESD.

125 µm, 62.5/125 µm, 100/140
µm and 200 µm HCS® fiber optic
cable. Consistent coupling into
the receiver is assured by the
lensed optical system (Figure 1).
Response does not vary with
fiber size for core diameters of
100 mm or less.
The receiver output is an analog
signal which allows follow-on
circuitry to be optimized for a
variety of distance/data rate
requirements. Low-cost external
components can be used to
convert the analog output to
logic compatible signal levels for
various data formats and data
rates up to 175 MBd. This
distance/data rate trade-off
results in increased optical
power budget at lower data
rates which can be used for
additional distance or splices.
The HFBR-24x6 receiver
contains a PIN photodiode and
low noise transimpedance
preamplifier integrated circuit.
The HFBR-24x6 receives an
optical signal and converts it to
an analog voltage. The output is
a buffered emitter follower.
Because the signal amplitude
from the HFBR-24x6 receiver is
much larger than from a simple
PIN photodiode, it is less
susceptible to EMI, especially at
high signaling rates. For very
noisy environments, the
conductive or metal port option
is recommended. A receiver
dynamic range of 23 dB over
temperature is achievable
(assuming 10-9 BER).
receiver from noisy host
systems. Refer to AN 1038, 1065,
or AB 78 for details.
The frequency response is
typically dc to 125 MHz.
Although the HFBR-24x6 is an
analog receiver, it is compatible
with digital systems. Please refer
to Application Bulletin 78 for
simple and inexpensive circuits
that operate at 155 MBd or
higher.
NOTES:
1. PINS 1, 4, 5 AND 8 ARE ISOLATED FROM THE INTERNAL
CIRCUITRY, BUT ARE ELECTRICALLY CONNECTED TO EACH
OTHER.
2. PINS 3 AND 7 ARE ELECTRICALLY CONNECTED TO HEADER
The recommended ac coupled
receiver circuit is shown in
Figure 14. It is essential that a
10 ohm resistor be connected
between pin 6 and the power
supply, and a 0.1 mF ceramic
bypass capacitor be connected
between the power supply and
ground. In addition, pin 6
should be filtered to protect the

Notes:
1. 2.0 mm from where leads enter case.
2. Typical specifications are for operation at TA = +25 °C and VCC = +5 V dc.
3. For 200 µm HCS fibers, typical responsivity will be 6 mV/mW. Other parameters will change as well.
4. Pin #2 should be ac coupled to a load ³ 510 ohm. Load capacitance must be less than 5 pF.
5. Measured with a 3 pole Bessel filter with a 75 MHz, -3 dB bandwidth. Recommended receiver filters for various bandwidths are provided in
Application Bulletin 78.
6. Overdrive is defined at PWD = 2.5 ns.
7. D is the effective diameter of the detector image on the plane of the fiber face. The numerical value is the product of the actual detector diameter
and the lens magnification.
8. Measured with a 10 ns pulse width, 50% duty cycle, at the 50% amplitude point of the waveform.
9. Percent overshoot is defined as:
 VPK − V100% 

x 100%
 V100% 
10. The conversion factor for the rise time to bandwidth is 0.41 since the HFBR-24x6 has a second order bandwidth limiting characteristic.
