FEATURES
APPLICATIONS
• 1.2 Gbits/s data input, both Current Mode Logic (CML)
and Positive Emitter Coupled Logic (PECL) compatible;
maximum 800 mV (p-p)
• Gigabit Ethernet/Fibre Channel optical transmission
systems
• Gigabit Ethernet/Fibre Channel optical laser modules.
• Adaptive laser output control with dual loop, stabilizing
optical 1 and 0 levels
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
• Optional external control of laser modulation and biasing
currents (non-adaptive)
The TZA3041AHL, TZA3041BHL and TZA3041U are fully
integrated laser drivers for Gigabit Ethernet/Fibre Channel
(1.2 Gbits/s) systems, incorporating the RF path between
the data multiplexer and the laser diode. Since the dual
loop bias and modulation control circuits are integrated on
the IC, the external component count is low. Only
decoupling capacitors and adjustment resistors are
required.
• Automatic laser shutdown
• Few external components required
• Rise and fall times of 120 ps (typical value)
• Jitter <50 mUI (p-p)
• RF output current sinking capability of 60 mA
• Bias current sinking capability of 90 mA
The TZA3041AHL features an alarm function for signalling
extreme bias current conditions. The alarm low and high
threshold levels can be adjusted to suit the application
using only a resistor or a current Digital-to-Analog
Converter (DAC).
• Power dissipation of 430 mW (typical value)
• Low cost LQFP32 5 × 5 plastic package
• Single 5 V power supply.
The TZA3041BHL is provided with an additional RF data
input to allow remote system testing (loop mode).

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The input buffers present a high impedance to the data
stream on the differential inputs (pins DIN and DINQ);
see Fig.5. The input signal can be at a CML level of
approximately 200 mV (p-p) below the supply voltage, or
at a PECL level up to 800 mV (p-p). The inputs can be
configured to accept CML signals by connecting pins DIN
and DINQ to VCC(R) via external 50 Ω pull-up resistors.
If PECL compatibility is required, the usual Thevenin
termination can be applied.
The TZA3041AHL, TZA3041BHL and TZA3041U laser
drivers accept a 1.2 Gbits/s Non-Return to Zero (NRZ)
input data stream, and generate an output signal with
sufficient current to drive a solid state Fabry Perot (FP) or
Distributed FeedBack (DFB) laser. They also contain dual
loop control circuitry for stabilizing the true laser optical
power levels representing logic 1 and logic 0.

For ECL signals (negative and referenced to ground), the
inputs should be AC-coupled to the signal source.
If AC-coupling is applied, a constant input signal (either
LOW or HIGH) will cause the device to be in an undefined
state. To avoid this, it is recommended to apply a slight
offset to the input stage. The applied offset must be higher
than the specified value in Chapter “Characteristics”, but
much lower than the applied input voltage swing.
Automatic laser control
A laser with a Monitor PhotoDiode (MPD) is required for
the laser control circuit (see application diagrams
Figs 18 and 19).
The MPD current is proportional to the laser emission and
is applied to pin MONIN. The MPD current range is
100 to 1000 µA (p-p). The input buffer is optimized to cope
with an MPD capacitance of up to 50 pF. To prevent the
input buffer from oscillating if the MPD capacitance is low,
the capacitance should be increased to the minimum value
specified in Chapter “Characteristics”, by connecting a
capacitor between pin MONIN and VCC(G).
The RF path is fully differential and contains a differential
preamplifier and a main amplifier. The main amplifier is
able to operate at the large peak currents required at the
output laser driver stage and is insensitive to supply
voltage variations. The output signal from the main
amplifier drives a current switch which supplies a
guaranteed maximum modulation current of 60 mA to
pins LA and LAQ (see Fig.6). The BIAS pin outputs a
guaranteed maximum DC bias current of up to 90 mA for
adjusting the optical laser output to a level above its light
emitting threshold (see Fig.7).
LA
handbook, halfpage
TR
DC reference currents are applied to pins ONE and ZERO
to set the MPD reference levels for laser HIGH and laser
LOW respectively. This is adequately achieved by using
resistors to connect VCC(R) to pins ONE and ZERO
(see Fig.8), however, current DACs can also be used. The
voltages on pins ONE and ZERO are held at a constant
level of 1.5 V below VCC(R). The reference current applied
to pin ONE is internally multiplied by 16 and the reference
current flowing into pin ZERO is internally multiplied by 4.
The accuracy of the VCC(R) − 1.5 V voltage at pins ONE
and ZERO is described in Section “Accuracy of voltage on
inputs: ONE, ZERO, ALARMLO, ALARMHI”.

Designing the modulation and bias current control

The optical 1 and 0 current control loop time constants are
determined by on-chip capacitances. If the resulting time
constants are found to be too small in a specific
application, they can be increased by connecting a
capacitor between pins TZERO and TONE.
The optical 1 modulation current control loop time
constant (τ) and bandwidth (B) can be estimated using the
following formulae:

In these formulae, IMPD(ONE) and IMPD(ZERO) represent the
MPD current during an optical 1 and an optical 0 period,
respectively.
The optical 0 bias current control loop time constant and
bandwidth can be estimated using the following formulae:
EXAMPLE
A laser operates at optical output power levels of 0.3 mW
for laser HIGH and 0.03 mW for laser LOW (extinction ratio
of 10 dB). Suppose the corresponding MPD currents for
this particular laser are 260 and 30 µA, respectively.

The term ηLASER (dimensionless) in the above formulae is
the product of the following two terms:
This current can be set using a current source or simply by
a resistor of the appropriate value connected between
pin ONE and VCC(R).
• ηEO is the electro-optical efficiency which accounts for
the steepness of the laser slope characteristic. It defines
the rate at which the optical output power increases with
modulation current, and is measured in W/A.
In this example, the resistor is:
1.5
R ONE = -------------------------------- = 92.3 kΩ

16.25 × 10
• R is the MPD responsivity. It determines the amount of
MPD current for a given value of optical output power,
and is measured in A/W.
In this example, the reference current at pin ZERO is:
1

I ref ( ZERO ) = --- × 30 × 10 = 7.5 µA

and can be set using a resistor:
1.5
R ZERO = ------------------------- = 200 kΩ

7.5 × 10
A laser with an MPD has the following specifications:
PO = 1 mW, Ith = 25 mA, ηEO = 30 mW/A, R = 500 mA/W.
The term Ith is the required threshold current to switch on
the laser. If the laser operates just above the threshold
level, it may be assumed that ηEO near the optical 0 level
is 50% of ηEO near the optical 1 level, due to the slope
decreasing near the threshold level.
It should be noted that the MPD current is stabilized rather
than the actual laser optical output power. Any deviations
between optical output power and MPD current, known as
‘tracking errors’, cannot be corrected.

Control loop data pattern and bit rate dependency
The constants in equations (1) and (3) are valid when the
data pattern frequently contains a sufficient number of
‘constant zeroes’ and ‘constant ones’. A single control loop
time period (τONE and τZERO) must contain ones and zeros
for at least approximately 6 ns. When using the IC in
1.2 Gbits/s applications, the optical extinction ratio will be
slightly higher when compared with slower line rates.
Therefore, it is important to use the actual data patterns
and bit rate of the final application circuit for adjusting the
optical levels.

Fig.9 Io(mod)(off) as a function of Io(mod)(on).
The laser driver peak detectors are able to track MPD
output current overshoot and undershoot conditions.
Unfortunately, these conditions affect the ability of the IC
to correctly interpret the high and low level MPD current.
In particular, the occurrence of undershoot can have a
markedly adverse effect on the interpretation of the low
level MPD current.
Monitoring the bias and modulation current
Although not recommended, the bias and modulation
currents generated by the laser driver can be monitored by
measuring the voltages on pins TZERO and TONE,
respectively (see Fig.10). The relationship between these
voltages and the corresponding currents are given as
transconductance values and are specified in
Chapter “Characteristics”. The voltages on pins TZERO
and TONE range from 1.4 to 3.4 V. Any connection to
these pins should have a very high impedance value. It is
mandatory to use a CMOS buffer or an amplifier with an
input impedance higher than 100 GΩ and with an
extremely low input leakage current (pA).
Additional bias by modulation ‘off’ current
Although during operation, the full modulation current
switches between outputs LA and LAQ, a small amount of
modulation current continues to flow through the inactive
pin.
For example, when the laser, whose cathode is connected
to LA, is in the ‘dark’ part of its operating cycle (logic 0),
some of the modulation ‘off’ current flows through LA while
most of the current flows through LAQ. This value
Io(mod)(off) is effectively added to the bias current and is
subtracted from the modulation current. Fortunately, the
value correlates closely with the magnitude of the
modulation current. Therefore, applications requiring low
bias and low modulation are less affected. Figure 9 shows
the modulation ‘off’ current as a function of the modulation
‘on’ current.

Manual laser override
The automatic laser control function can be overridden by
connecting voltage sources to pins TZERO and TONE to
take direct control of the current sources for bias and
modulation respectively. The control voltages should
range from 1.4 to 3.4 V to swing the modulation current
over the range 1 to 60 mA and the bias current over the
range 1 to 90 mA. These current ranges are guaranteed.

Due to the tolerance range in the manufacturing process,
some devices may have higher current values than those
specified, as shown in Figs 12 and 13. Both figures show
that temperature changes cause a slight tilting of the linear
characteristic around an input voltage of 2.4 V.
Consequently, the manually controlled current level is
most insensitive to temperature variations at around this
value. Bias and modulation currents in excess of the
specified range are not supported and should be avoided.

Fig.10 TZERO and TONE internal configuration.
Currents into or out of pins TZERO and TONE in excess of
10 µA must be avoided to prevent damage to the circuit.
Automatic laser shut-down and laser slow start
The laser modulation and bias currents can be rapidly
switched off when a HIGH level (CMOS) is applied to
pin ALS. This function allows the circuit to be shut-down in
the event of an optical system malfunction. A 25 kΩ
pull-down resistor defaults pin ALS to the non active state
(see Fig.11).
When a LOW level is applied to pin ALS, the modulation
and bias currents slowly increase to the desired values at
the typical time constants of τONE and τZERO, respectively.
This can be used to slow-start the laser.

Bias alarm for TZA3041AHL
The bias current alarm circuit detects whenever the bias
current is outside a predefined range, and generates a
flag. This feature can detect excessive bias current due to
laser ageing or laser malfunctioning. The current applied
to pin ALARMHI should be the maximum permitted bias
current value attenuated by a ratio of 1:1500. The current
applied to pin ALARMLO should be the minimum
permitted bias current value attenuated by a ratio of 1:300.
20 Ω
ALARM
Like the reference currents for the laser current control
loop, the alarm reference currents can be set by
connecting external resistors between VCC(R) and
pins ALARMHI and ALARMLO (see Fig.8). The resistor
values can be calculated using the following formulae:
1.5 × 1500
R ALARMHI = --------------------------------- [ Ω ]
(9)
I O ( BIAS ) ( max )
1.5 × 300
R ALARMLO = -------------------------------I O ( BIAS ) ( min )

limit the bias current range from 6 to 90 mA:

Accuracy of voltage on inputs: ONE, ZERO,
ALARMLO, ALARMHI

I ALARMHI = ------------------------ = 60 µA
1500
It is important to consider the accuracy of the 1.5 V level
with respect to VCC(R) on pins ONE and ZERO if resistors
are used to set the reference currents. Although this value
is independent of VCC(R), deviations from 1.5 V can be
caused by:
The corresponding resistor values are:
1.5 × 1500
R ALARMHI = --------------------------- = 25 kΩ and
–3
90 × 10
• Input current: At Tj = 25 °C, the voltage between pin and
VCC varies from 1.58 V at an input current of 6 µA, down
to 1.45 V at 65 µA and 1.41 V at 100 µA. The range
between 65 µA and 100 µA is only specified for
ALARMLO. In the application, the input current is
virtually fixed, so this variation has little effect.
1.5 × 300
R ALARMLO = ----------------------- = 75 kΩ
–3
6 × 10
If the alarm condition is true, the voltage on pin ALARM
(see Fig.14) goes to a HIGH level (CMOS). This signal
could be used, for example, to drive pin ALS to disable the
laser driver; the signal to pin ALS has to be latched to
prevent oscillation.
• Variation in batch and individual device characteristics,
not exceeding ±2% from the nominal product: This
variation can be compensated for where devices in the
application are individually trimmed.
A hysteresis of approximately 10% is applied to both alarm
functions. The attenuation ratios of 1:300 and 1:1500 are
valid if the bias current rises above the reference current
levels. If the bias current decreases, the ratios are 10%
lower.
2002 Aug 13
• Temperature: The variation in Tj is shown in Fig.15.
At 30 µA (middle of the specified range) the total
variation in Tj is <1%, at 65 µA it is <2% and at 6 µA it is
<3%.

To maximize power supply isolation, the cathode of the
MPD should be connected to VCC(G) and the anode of the
laser diode should be connected to VCC(B). It is
recommended that the laser diode anode is also
connected to a separate decoupling capacitor C9.
Loop mode for TZA3041BHL
The loop mode allows the total system application to be
tested. It allows for uninhibited optical transmission
through the fibre front-end (from the MPD through the
transimpedance stage and the data and clock recovery
unit, to the laser driver and via the laser back to the fibre).
Note that the optical receiver used in conjunction with the
TZA3041BHL must have a loop mode output in order to
complete the test loop.
Generally, the inverted laser modulation output (pin LAQ)
is not used. To correctly balance the output stage, an
equalization network (Z1) with an impedance comparable
to the laser diode is connected between pin LAQ and
VCC(B).
The loop mode is selected by a HIGH level on pin ENL.
By default, pin ENL is pulled to a LOW level by a 25 kΩ
pull-down resistor (see Fig.16).
All external components should be surface mounted
devices, preferably of size 0603 or smaller.
The components must be mounted as close to the IC as
possible.
It is especially recommended to mount the following
components very close to the IC:
• Power supply decoupling capacitors C2, C3 and C4
• Input matching network on pins DIN, DINQ, DLOOP and
DLOOPQ
VCC(R)

• Capacitor C5 on pin MONIN
• Output matching network Z1 at the unused output

• The laser.
25 kΩ
Bare die ground
MGS912
In addition to the separate VCC domains, the bare die
contains three corresponding ground (GND) domains.
Isolation between the GND domains is limited due to the
finite substrate conductance.
GND
Mount the die preferably on a large and highly conductive
grounded die pad. All GND pads must be bonded to the
die pad. The external ground is thus ideally combined with
the die ground to avoid ground bounce problems.
Fig.16 ENL input.
Layout recommendations
Power supply connections
Layout recommendations for the TZA3041AHL and
TZA3041BHL can be found in application note “AN98090
Fiber optic transceiverboard STM1/4/8, OC3,12,24,
FC/GE”.
Refer to application diagrams Figs 18 and 19. Three
separate supply domains (labelled VCC(G), VCC(B), and
VCC(R)) provide isolation between the MPD current input,
the high-current outputs, and the PECL or CML inputs.
Each supply domain should be connected to a central VCC
via separate filters as shown in Figs 18 and 19. All supply
pins must be connected. The voltage supply levels
should be equal to, and in accordance with, the values
specified in Chapter “Characteristics”.

Notes
1. Supply current:
a) The values do not include the modulation and bias currents through pins LA, LAQ and BIAS.
b) Minimum value refers to VTONE = 1.4 V at Io(mod)(min) and VTZERO = 1.4 V at IO(BIAS)(min).
c) Maximum value refers to VTONE = 3.4 V at Io(mod)(max) and VTZERO = 3.4 V at IO(BIAS)(max).
d) A first order estimate of the typical value of ICC(tot) as a function of Tj, Io(mod), and IO(BIAS) is:
T j [ °C ]
ICC(tot) = 55.6 mA + 0.0015 × I O ( BIAS ) [ mA ] × I o ( mod ) ( on ) [ mA ] ×  1 – 0.026 × ----------------- 


25
2. Power dissipation:
a) The value for Ptot includes the modulation and bias currents through pins LA, LAQ and BIAS.
b) The minimum value for Ptot is the on-chip dissipation when VTONE = 1.4 V at Io(mod)(min), VLA = VLAQ = 2 V,
VTZERO = 1.4 V at IO(BIAS)(min), VO(BIAS) = 1 V, and parameter processes are at a minimum.
c) The maximum value for Ptot is the on-chip dissipation when VTONE = 3.4 V at Io(mod)(max), VLA = VLAQ = 2 V,
VTZERO = 3.4 V at IO(BIAS)(max), VO(BIAS) = 1 V, and parameter processes are at a maximum.
d) Ptot = ICC(tot) × VCC + IO(BIAS) × VO(BIAS) + ILA × VLA with Io(mod)(on) flowing through pin LA.
3. The minimum value of the capacitance on pin MONIN is required to prevent instability.
4. The reference currents can be set by connecting external resistors between VCC and pins ONE and ZERO
(see Section “Automatic laser control”). The corresponding MPD current range for optical 1 is from 96 to 1040 µA.
The MPD current range for optical 0 is from 24 to 260 µA.
5. See Section “Accuracy of voltage on inputs: ONE, ZERO, ALARMLO, ALARMHI”.
6. See Section “Automatic laser control”.
7. The specified transconductance is the ratio between the modulation current on pins LA or LAQ and the voltage on
pin TONE, under small signal conditions.

8. The specified transconductance is the ratio between the bias current on pin BIAS and the voltage on pin TZERO,
under small signal conditions.
9. These are the guaranteed values; the lowest attainable output current will always be lower than 2.5 mA, and the
highest output current will always be higher than 60 mA.
10. The voltage rise and fall times (20% to 80%) can have larger values due to capacitive effects. Specifications are
guaranteed by design and characterization. Each device is tested at full operating speed to guarantee RF
functionality.
11. Measured according to IEEE 802.3z and ANSI X3.230. The electrically generated (current) jitter is assumed to be
less than 50% of the optical output jitter. The specification is guaranteed by design.
12. These are the guaranteed values; the lowest output current will always be less than 2.8 mA and the highest output
current will always be more than 90 mA.
13. The response time is defined as the delay between the onset of the ramp on pin ALS (at 10% of the HIGH level) and
the extinction of the bias current (at 10% of the original value).
14. The reference currents can be set by connecting a resistor between pin ALARMLO and VCC(R) and between
pin ALARMHI and VCC(R); for detailed information, see Section “Bias alarm for TZA3041AHL”. The corresponding
low-bias threshold range is 1.8 to 19.5 mA. The high-bias threshold range is 9 to 97.5 mA.

SOLDERING
If wave soldering is used the following conditions must be
observed for optimal results:
Introduction to soldering surface mount packages
• Use a double-wave soldering method comprising a
turbulent wave with high upward pressure followed by a
smooth laminar wave.
This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology.
A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in
our “Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages”
(document order number 9398 652 90011).
• For packages with leads on two sides and a pitch (e):
– larger than or equal to 1.27 mm, the footprint
longitudinal axis is preferred to be parallel to the
transport direction of the printed-circuit board;
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all surface
mount IC packages. Wave soldering can still be used for
certain surface mount ICs, but it is not suitable for fine pitch
SMDs. In these situations reflow soldering is
recommended.
– smaller than 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis
must be parallel to the transport direction of the
printed-circuit board.
Reflow soldering
The footprint must incorporate solder thieves at the
downstream end.
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of
fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied
to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.
• For packages with leads on four sides, the footprint must
be placed at a 45° angle to the transport direction of the
printed-circuit board. The footprint must incorporate
solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
Several methods exist for reflowing; for example,
convection or convection/infrared heating in a conveyor
type oven. Throughput times (preheating, soldering and
cooling) vary between 100 and 200 seconds depending
on heating method.
During placement and before soldering, the package must
be fixed with a droplet of adhesive. The adhesive can be
applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe
dispensing. The package can be soldered after the
adhesive is cured.
Typical reflow peak temperatures range from
215 to 250 °C. The top-surface temperature of the
packages should preferable be kept below 220 °C for
thick/large packages, and below 235 °C for small/thin
packages.
Typical dwell time is 4 seconds at 250 °C.
A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal
of corrosive residues in most applications.
Manual soldering
Wave soldering
Fix the component by first soldering two
diagonally-opposite end leads. Use a low voltage (24 V or
less) soldering iron applied to the flat part of the lead.
Contact time must be limited to 10 seconds at up to
300 °C.
Conventional single wave soldering is not recommended
for surface mount devices (SMDs) or printed-circuit boards
with a high component density, as solder bridging and
non-wetting can present major problems.
When using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be
soldered in one operation within 2 to 5 seconds between
270 and 320 °C.
To overcome these problems the double-wave soldering
method was specifically developed.

Notes
1. For more detailed information on the BGA packages refer to the “(LF)BGA Application Note” (AN01026); order a copy
from your Philips Semiconductors sales office.
2. All surface mount (SMD) packages are moisture sensitive. Depending upon the moisture content, the maximum
temperature (with respect to time) and body size of the package, there is a risk that internal or external package
cracks may occur due to vaporization of the moisture in them (the so called popcorn effect). For details, refer to the
Drypack information in the “Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages; Section: Packing Methods”.
3. These packages are not suitable for wave soldering. On versions with the heatsink on the bottom side, the solder
cannot penetrate between the printed-circuit board and the heatsink. On versions with the heatsink on the top side,
the solder might be deposited on the heatsink surface.
4. If wave soldering is considered, then the package must be placed at a 45° angle to the solder wave direction.
The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
5. Wave soldering is suitable for LQFP, TQFP and QFP packages with a pitch (e) larger than 0.8 mm; it is definitely not
suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.65 mm.
6. Wave soldering is suitable for SSOP and TSSOP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger than 0.65 mm; it is
definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.5 mm.
