FLTDLY
The MAX3286/MAX3296 series of products are highspeed laser drivers for fiber optic LAN transmitters optimized for Gigabit Ethernet applications. Each device
contains a bias generator, laser modulator, and comprehensive safety features. Automatic power control
(APC) adjusts the laser bias current to maintain average optical power at a constant level, regardless of
changes in temperature or laser properties. For lasers
without a monitor photodiode, these products offer a
constant-current mode. The circuit can be configured
for use with conventional shortwave (780nm to 850nm)
or longwave (1300nm) laser diodes, as well as verticalcavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs).
The MAX3286 series (MAX3286–MAX3289) is optimized for operation at 1.25Gbps, and the MAX3296
series (MAX3296–MAX3299) is optimized for 2.5Gbps
operation. Each device can switch 30mA of laser modulation current at the specified data rate. Adjustable
temperature compensation is provided to keep the optical extinction ratio within specifications over the operating temperature range. This series of devices is
optimized to drive lasers packaged in low-cost TO-46
headers. Deterministic jitter (DJ) for the MAX3286 is
typically 22ps, allowing a 72% margin to Gigabit
Ethernet DJ specifications.
These laser drivers provide extensive safety features to
guarantee single-point fault tolerance. Safety features
include dual enable inputs, dual shutdown circuits, and
a laser-power monitor. The safety circuit detects faults
that could cause dangerous light output levels. A programmable power-on reset pulse initializes the laser
driver at startup.
The MAX3286/MAX3296 are available in a compact, 5mm
✕ 5mm, 28-pin QFN or thin QFN package; a 5mm ✕ 5mm,
32-pin TQFP package; or in die form. The MAX3287/
MAX3288/MAX3289 and MAX3297/MAX3298/MAX3299
are available in a 16-pin TSSOP-EP package.

Note 1: Common-anode configuration refers to a configuration where POL = GND, POL = VCC, and an NPN device is used to set
the laser bias current. Common-cathode configuration refers to a configuration where POL = VCC, POL = GND, and a PNP
device is used to set the laser bias current.
Note 2: Deterministic jitter measured with a repeating K28.5 bit pattern 00111110101100000101. Deterministic jitter is the peak-topeak deviation from the ideal time crossings per ANSI X3.230, Annex A.
Note 3: For Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet applications, the peak-to-peak random jitter is 14.1 times the RMS jitter.
Note 4: Delay from a fault on MD until FAULT is asserted high.

Figure 3 shows the bias generator circuitry containing a
power-control amplifier, controlled reference voltage,
smooth-start circuit, and window comparator. The bias
generator combined with an external PNP or NPN transistor provides DC laser current to bias the laser in a lightemitting state. When there is a monitor diode (MD) in the
laser package, the APC circuitry adjusts the laser-bias
current to maintain average power over temperature and
changing laser properties. The MD input is connected to

resistor-divider, depending on the specific application
circuit. Three application circuits are supported:
common-cathode laser with photodiode, commoncathode laser without photodiode, and common-anode
laser with photodiode (as shown in the Design Procedure
section). The POL and POL inputs determine the laser
pinning (common cathode, common anode) (Table 4).
The smooth-start circuitry prevents current spikes to the
laser during power-up or enable; this ensures compliance
with safety requirements and extends the life of the laser.
The power-control amplifier drives an external transistor
to control the laser bias current. In a fault condition, the
power-control amplifier’s output is disabled (high

Applications Information section.)
The REF pin provides a controlled reference voltage
dependent upon the voltage at MON. The voltage at REF
is VREF = 2.65 - 2.25(VCC - VMON). A resistor connected
at REF determines the laser power when APC is used
with common-cathode lasers. See the Design Procedure

Modulation Circuitry
Many of the modulator performance specifications
depend on the total modulator current (IOUT) (Figure 1a).
To ensure good driver performance, the voltage at
OUT+ and OUT- must not be less than VCC - 1V.
The amplitude of the modulation current is set with
resistors at the MODSET and temperature coefficient (TC)
pins. The resistor at MODSET (RMOD) programs the
temperature-stable portion of modulation current, while
the resistor at TC (R TC) programs the temperatureincreasing portion of the modulation current. Figure 5
shows modulation current as a function of temperature
for two extremes: RTC is open (the modulation current
has zero temperature coefficient) and R MOD is open
(the modulation temperature coefficient is 4000ppm).
Intermediate tempco values of modulation current can
be obtained as described in the Design Procedure section. Table 3 is the RTC and RMOD selection table.

Fault Detection
The MAX3286/MAX3296 series has extensive and comprehensive fault-detection features. All critical nodes
are monitored for safety faults, and any node voltage
that differs significantly from its expected value results
in a fault (Table 1). When a fault condition is detected,
the laser is shut down. See the Applications Information
section for more information on laser safety.
Shutdown
The laser drivers offer dual redundant bias shutdown
mechanisms. The SHDNDRV output drives an optional
external MOSFET semiconductor. The bias and modulation drivers have separate internal disable signals.
1.0
0.9
Pulse Generator
During startup, the laser does not emit light and the
APC loop is not closed, triggering a fault signal. To
allow startup, an internal fault-delay pulse disables the
safety system for a programmable period of time, allowing
the driver to begin operation. The length of the pulse is
determined by the capacitor connected at FLTDLY and
should be set 5 to 10 times longer than the APC time
constant. The internal safety features can be disabled
by connecting FLTDLY to GND. Note that EN must be
high, EN must be low, and VCC must be in the operational range for laser operation.
Latched Fault Output
Two complementary FAULT outputs are provided with
the MAX3286/MAX3296 series. In the event of a fault,
these outputs latch until one of three events occurs:

Another safety system, open fiber control (OFC), uses
safety interlocks to prevent eye hazards. To accommodate the OFC standard, the MAX3286/MAX3296 series
provide dual enable inputs and dual fault outputs.
The safety circuitry contains fault detection, dual enable

where α is the slope of the laser output power to the

For example, suppose a laser has a slope efficiency
α 25 of 0.021mW/mA at +25°C, which reduces to
0.018mW/mA at +70°C. Using the above equation produces a laser tempco of -3175ppm/°C.
To obtain the desired modulation current and tempco
for the device, the following two equations can be used
to determine the required values of RMOD and RTC:

2) EN is switched low, then high.
3) EN is switched to high, then low.
Power-On Reset (POR)
Figure 7 shows the POR circuit for the MAX3286/
MAX3296 series devices. A POR signal asserts low
when VCC is in the operating range. The voltage operating range is determined by the LV pin, as shown in
Table 2. POR contains an internal delay to reject noise
on VCC during power-on or hot-plugging. The delay can
be extended by adding capacitance to the PORDLY
pin. The POR comparator includes hysteresis to improve
noise rejection. The laser driver is shut down while VCC
is out of the operating range.
Design Procedure
Select Laser
Select a communications-grade laser with a rise time of
260ps or better for 1.25Gbps, or 130ps or better for
2.5Gbps applications. To obtain the MAX3286/
MAX3296’s AC specifications, the instantaneous output
voltage at OUT+ must remain above VCC - 1V at all
times. Select a high-efficiency laser that requires low
modulation current and generates low-voltage swing at
OUT+. Laser package inductance can be reduced by
trimming the leads. Typical package leads have inductance of 25nH/in (1nH/mm); this inductance causes a
larger voltage swing across the laser. A compensation filter network also can be used to reduce ringing, edge
speed, and voltage swing.

Common Cathode with Photodiode
(Optical Feedback)
In the common cathode with photodiode configuration,
a servo control loop is formed by external PNP Q1, the
laser diode, the monitor diode, RSET, and the powercontrol amplifier (Figure 9). The voltage at MD is stabilized to 1.7V. The monitor photodiode current (ID) is set
by (VREF - VMD) / RSET = 0.95 / RSET. Determine the
desired monitor current (ID), then select RSET = 0.95 / ID.
The APC loop is compensated by CBIASDRV. A capacitor
must be placed from BIASDRV to VCC to ensure lownoise operation and to reject power-supply noise. The
time constant governs how quickly the laser bias current
reacts to a change in the average total laser current
(IBIASDRV + IMOD). A capacitance of 0.1µF is sufficient
to obtain a loop time constant in excess of 1µs, provided that RDEG is chosen appropriately. Resistor RDEG
might be necessary to ensure the APC loop’s stability
when low bias currents are desired.
The voltage across RDEG should not be larger than
250mV at maximum bias current.

Common Cathode with Current Feedback
In the common-cathode configuration with current feedback, a servo control loop is formed by an external PNP
transistor (Q1), RMON, the controlled-reference voltage
block, R SET , R MD , and the power-control amplifier
(Figure 10). The voltage at MD is stabilized to 1.7V. The
voltage at MON is set by the resistors RSET and RMD.
As in the short-wavelength configuration, a 0.1µF
CBIASDRV connected between BIASDRV and VCC is
sufficient to obtain an approximate 1µs APC loop time
constant. This improves power-supply noise rejection.
To select the external components:
1) Determine the required laser bias current
IBIAS = ITH + IMOD / 2
2) Select RMD and RSET.
Maxim recommends RSET = 1kΩ, RMD = 5kΩ, which
results in VCC - VMON ≈ 250mV.
3) Select RMON where RMON = 250mV / IBIAS, assuming
RSET = 1kΩ and RMD = 5kΩ.

CBIASDRV and a degeneration resistor (RDEG) must be
connected to the bias transistor (in this case NPN) to
obtain the desired APC loop time constant. This
improves power-supply (and ground) noise rejection. A
capacitance of 0.1µF is sufficient to obtain time constants of up to 5µs in most cases. The voltage across
RDEG should not be larger than 250mV at maximum bias
current.
CBIASDRV = 0.1µF (typ)
The discrete components used with the common anode
with photodiode configuration are summarized as follows:
RSET = 1.7 / ID
Common Anode with Photodiode
In the common-anode configuration with photodiode, a
servo control loop is formed by an external NPN transistor (Q1), the laser diode, the monitor diode, RSET, and
the power-control amplifier. The voltage at MD is stabilized to 1.7V. The monitor photodiode current is set by
ID = VMD / RSET (Figure 12). Determine the desired monitor current (ID), then select RSET = 1.7V / ID.

Designing the Bias Filter and
Output Pullup Beads
To reduce deterministic jitter, add a ferrite-bead inductor between the collector of the biasing transistor and
either the anode or the cathode of the laser, depending
on type (see the Typical Operating Characteristics).
Use a ferrite-bead inductor with an impedance >100Ω
between ƒ = 10MHz and ƒ = 2GHz, and a DC resistance
<
3Ω.
Maxim
recommends
the
Murata
BLM11HA102SG. These inductors are also desirable
for tying the OUT+ and OUT- pins to VCC.
Designing the Laser-Compensation
Filter Network
Laser package inductance causes the laser impedance
to increase at high frequencies, leading to ringing, overshoot, and degradation of the output eye pattern. A lasercompensation filter network can be used to reduce the
output load seen by the laser driver at high frequencies,
thereby reducing output ringing and overshoot.
The compensation components (RCOMP and CCOMP)
are most easily determined by experimentation. Begin
with RCOMP = 25Ω and CCOMP = 2pF. Increase CCOMP
until the desired transmitter eye is obtained (Figure 13).
Quick Shutdown
To reduce laser shutdown time, a FET device can be
attached to SHDNDRV as shown in Figure 10. This provides a typical laser power shutdown time of less than
10µs.
Applications Information
Laser Safety and IEC 825
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)
determines standards for hazardous light emissions
from fiber optic transmitters. IEC 825 defines the maximum light output for various hazard levels. The MAX3286/
MAX3296 series provides features that facilitate compliance with IEC 825.
A common safety requirement is single-point fault tolerance, whereby one unplanned short, open, or resistive
connection does not cause excess light output. When
these laser drivers are used, as shown in the Typical
Application Circuits, the circuits respond to faults as
listed in Table 5.
Using these laser drivers alone does not ensure that a
transmitter design is compliant with IEC 825. The entire
transmitter circuit and component selections must be
considered. Customers must determine the level of fault
tolerance required by their applications, recognizing that
Maxim products are not designed or authorized for use
as components in systems intended for surgical implant

a Maxim product could create a situation where personal injury or death may occur.
Layout Considerations
The MAX3286/MAX3296 series comprises high-frequency products. Their performance depends largely
upon the circuit board layout.
Use a multilayer circuit board with a dedicated ground
plane. Use short laser package leads placed close to
the modulator outputs. Power supplies must be capacitively bypassed to the ground plane with surface-mount
capacitors placed near the power-supply pins.
The dominant pole of the APC circuit is normally located at BIASDRV. To prevent a second pole in the APC
(which can lead to oscillations), ensure that parasitic
capacitance at MD is minimized.
Common Questions
Laser output is ringing or contains overshoot. This often is
caused by inductive laser packaging. Try reducing the
length of the laser leads. Modify the compensation components to reduce the driver’s output edge speed (see
Design Procedure). Extreme ringing can be caused by
low voltage at the OUT± pins. This might indicate that
pullup beads or a lower modulation current are needed.
Low-frequency oscillation on the laser output. This is
more prevalent at low temperatures. The APC might be
oscillating. Try increasing the value of CBIASDRV or
increasing the value of RDEG. Ensure that the parasitic
capacitance at the MD node is kept very small (<10pF).
The APC is not needed. Connect FLTDLY to ground to
disable fault detection. Connect MD to REF and MON to
VCC. BIASDRV and SHDNDRV can be left open.
