1.25Gbps HIGH-SPEED LIMITING POST AMPLIFIER DESCRIPTION FEATURES ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ Up to 1.25Gbps operation Low noise Chatter-Free /LOS Generation PECL /LOS Output TTL /EN Input Differential PECL inputs for data /EN input is TTL with internal 27K pull up Single power supply Designed for use with SY88902 and SY88904 Available in a tiny 10-pin (3mm) MSOP The SY88913 limiting post amplifier with its high gain and wide bandwidth is ideal for use as a post amplifier in fiber-optic receivers with data rates up to 1.25Gbps. Signals as small as 5mVp-p can be amplified to drive devices with PECL inputs. The SY88913 generates a chatter-free PECL Loss of Signal (/LOS). The SY88913 incorporates a programmble level detect function to identify when the input signal has been lost. This information can be fed back to the /EN input of the device to maintain stability under loss of signal conditions. Using LOSLVL pin the sensitivity of the level detect can be adjusted. The LOS LVL voltage can be set by connecting a resistor divider between VCC and VREF, Figure 2. Figure 3 shows the relationship between input level sensitivity and the voltage set on LOSLVL. Figure 4 shows the relationship between input level sensitivity and resistor divider ratio.

The circuit connects to typical transimpedance amplifiers found within a fiber-optics link. The linear signal output from a transimpedance amplifier can contain significant amounts of noise, and may vary in amplitude over time. The SY88913 limiting amplifier quantizes the signal and outputs a voltagelimited waveform. The TTL /EN pin allows the user to disable the signal without removing the input signal.

The SY88913 ground pin should be connected to the circuit board ground. Use multiple PCB vias close to the part to connect to ground. Avoid long, inductive runs which can degrade performance. Layout and PCB Design Since the SY88913 is a high-frequency component, performance can largely be determined by board layout and design. A common problem with high-gain amplifiers is feedback from the large swing outputs to the input via the power supply.
