SY88303BL 3.3V, 3.2Gbps CML Limiting Post Amplifier with Wide Loss-of-Signal Detection Range General Description Features The SY88303BL low-power limiting post amplifiers are designed for use in fiber-optic receivers. These devices connect to typical transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs). The linear signal output from TIAs can contain significant amounts of noise and may vary in amplitude over time. The SY88303BL quantizes these signals and output CML-level waveforms. The SY88303BL operates from a single +3.3V power o o supply, over temperatures ranging from –40 C to +85 C. With their wide bandwidth and high gain, signals with data rates up to 3.2Gbps, and as small as 10mVPP, can be amplified to drive devices with CML/PECL inputs. The device generates a loss-of-signal (LOS) opencollector TTL output. The LOS function is optimized to detect a wide input range, as shown in the typical operating characteristic curve on Page 6. A programmable loss-of-signal level-set pin (LOSLVL) sets the sensitivity of the input amplitude detection. LOS asserts high if the input amplitude falls below the threshold sets by LOSLVL and de-asserts low otherwise. The enable bar input (/EN) de-asserts the true output signal without removing the input signal. The LOS output can be fed back to the /EN input to maintain output stability under a loss-of-signal condition. Typically, 3.5dB LOS hysteresis is provided to prevent chattering.

Random jitter measured using 3.2Gbps K28.7 pattern, VID = 10mVPP. This specification defines electrical hysteresis as 20log (LOS De-assert/LOS Assert). The ratio between optical hysteresis and electrical hysteresis is found to vary between 1.5 and 2, depending upon the level of received optical power and ROSA characteristics. Based upon that ratio, the optical hysteresis corresponding to the electrical hysteresis range 2dB-6dB, shown in the AC characteristics table, will be 1dB-3dB Optical Hysteresis. 8.

SY88303BL Functional Block Diagram The SY88303BL low-power limiting post amplifiers operate from a single +3.3V power supply, over o o temperatures from –40 C to +85 C. Signals with data rates up to 3.2Gbps and as small as 10mVPP can be amplified. Figure 1 shows the allowed input voltage swing. The SY88303BL generates a LOS output allowing feedback to /EN for output stability. LOSLVL sets the sensitivity of the input amplitude detection. Input Amplifier Buffer Figure 2 shows a simplified schematic of the input stage. The high-sensitivity of the input amplifier allows signals as small as 10mVPP to be amplified. The input amplifier also allows input signals as large as 1800mVPP. Input signals below 12mVpp are linearly amplified with a typical 42dB differential voltage gain. Since it is a limiting amplifier, these devices output typically 800mVPP voltage-limited waveforms for input signals greater than 12mVPP. Applications requiring the SY88303BL to operate with strong signals should have the upstream TIA placed as close as possible to the devices’ input pins. This ensures the best performance of the device. Output Buffer The SY88303BL CML output buffers are designed to drive 50Ω lines. The output buffer requires appropriate termination for proper operation. An external Ω 50 resistor to VCC for each output pin provides this. Figure 3 shows a simplified schematic of the output stage. Loss-of-Signal The SY88303BL generates a chatter-free LOS opencollector TTL output, as shown in Figure 4. LOS is used to determine that the input amplitude is large enough to be considered a valid input. LOS asserts high if the input amplitude falls below the threshold sets by LOSLVL and de-asserts low otherwise. LOS can be fed back to the enable bar (/EN) input to maintain output stability under a loss-of-signal condition. /EN de-asserts the true output signal without removing the input signals. Loss-of-Signal Level Set Programmable LOS level-set pin (LOSLVL) sets the threshold of the input amplitude detection. Connecting an external resistor between VCC and LOSLVL set the voltage at LOSLVL. This voltage ranges from VCC to VREF. The external resistor creates a voltage divider between VCC and VREF, as shown in Figure 5. Hysteresis The SY88303BL typically provides 3.5dB LOS electrical hysteresis. By definition, a power ratio measured in dB 2 is 10log (power ratio). Power is calculated as V IN / R for an electrical signal. Hence, the same ratio can be stated as 20log (voltage ratio). While in linear mode, the electrical voltage input changes linearly with the optical power and therefore, the ratios change linearly. Thus, the optical hysteresis in dB is half the electrical hysteresis in dB given in the data sheet. Since the SY88303BL is an electrical device, this data sheet refers to hysteresis in electrical terms. With 3.5dB LOS hysteresis, a voltage factor of 1.5 is required to assert or de-assert LOS.
