Description
The Corning Lasertron QDFT pinFET module is a high-sensitivity detector and hybrid
preamplifier module designed for fiber-optic receivers operating at data rates up to and
exceeding 420 Mb/s at 1300 and 1550 nm wavelengths. The transimpedance circuitry
provides excellent sensitivity and superior dynamic range. The high sensitivity results from
use of an advanced GaInAs detector element having <10 nA leakage and a responsivity of
>0.8 A/W at 1300 and 1550 nm.
Sensitivities range from -53 dBm at 18 Mb/s, to -43 dBm at 140 Mb/s. Optical dynamic
range exceeds 25 dB. Operation requires only +5 V power supplies at modest bias currents.
The QDFT is packaged in a hermetically sealed, low-profile, 14-pin DIL package and is
pigtailed with multimode fiber.
Applications
TRANSIMPEDANCE DESIGN CIRCUITRY
The Corning Lasertron QDFT pinFET module consists of a low-capacitance,
front-illuminated planar detector element followed by a hybrid transimpedance amplifier.
Benefits of the transimpedance design of the QDFT pinFET module include excellent
dynamic range and ease of implementation. The QDFT pinFET requires no equalization
and is self-biasing. Simply by applying +5 V and -5 V supplies to the amplifier circuit, and
a -5 V supply to the detector element, the device is ready to receive an optical input through
a multimode fiber-optic pigtail.
The diagram to the left illustrates the fundamental operation of a QDFT pinFET. As
incident light illuminates the detector, a small signal current is produced which is directly
proportional to the amplitude of the incident light source (Pi) and the responsivity (R) of
the detector.
This simple relationship of R • Pi yields the output signal current (Is). This current is
then converted to a voltage with the transimpedance resistor (Zt) and a gain block amplifier.
The resulting signal voltage (Vs) is simply derived from the quantities Is • Zt.
