The ADN2526 laser diode driver is designed for direct modulation of packaged laser diodes that have a differential resistance
ranging from 5 Ω to 50 Ω. The active back-termination in the
ADN2526 absorbs signal reflections from the TOSA end of the
output transmission lines, enabling excellent optical eye quality to
be achieved even when the TOSA end of the output transmission
lines is significantly misterminated. ADN2526 is an SFP+ MSAcompliant device, and its small package and enhanced ESD
protection provide the optimum solution for compact modules
where laser diodes are packaged in low pin-count optical
subassemblies.
The modulation and bias currents are programmable via the
MSET and BSET control pins. By driving these pins with control
voltages, the user has the flexibility to implement various
average optical power and extinction ratio control schemes,
including closed-loop or look-up table control. The automatic
laser shutdown (ALS) feature allows the user to turn on/off the
bias and modulation currents by driving the ALS pin with a
LVTTL logic source.

07511-018
As shown in Figure 1, the ADN2526 consists of an input stage
and two voltage-controlled current sources for bias and modulation. The bias current, which is available at the IBIAS pin, is
controlled by the voltage applied at the BSET pin and can be
monitored at the IBMON pin. The differential modulation
current, which is available at the IMODP and IMODN pins, is
controlled by the voltage applied to the MSET pin. The output
stage implements the active back-match circuitry for proper
transmission line matching and power consumption reduction.
The ADN2526 can drive a load having differential resistance
ranging from 5 Ω to 50 Ω. The excellent back-termination in
the ADN2526 absorbs the signal reflections from the TOSA
end, enabling excellent optical eye quality, even though the
TOSA is significantly misterminated.
DATA SIGNAL SOURCE
Figure 18. AC-Coupling the Data Source to the ADN2526 Data Inputs
BIAS CURRENT
The bias current is generated internally using a voltage-to-current
converter consisting of an internal operational amplifier and a
transistor, as shown in Figure 19.
VCC
INPUT STAGE
ADN2526
The input stage of the ADN2526 converts the data signal applied
to the DATAP and DATAN pins to a level that ensures proper
operation of the high speed switch. The equivalent circuit of the
input stage is shown in Figure 17.

Figure 19. Voltage-to-Current Converter Used to Generate IBIAS
Figure 17. Equivalent Circuit of the Input Stage
The DATAP and DATAN pins are terminated internally with a
100 Ω differential termination resistor. This minimizes signal
reflections at the input, which can otherwise lead to degradation in
the output eye diagram. It is not recommended to drive the
ADN2526 with single-ended data signal sources.
The ADN2526 input stage must be ac-coupled to the signal
source to eliminate the need for matching between the commonmode voltages of the data signal source and the input stage of
the driver (see Figure 18). The ac-coupling capacitors should
have an impedance much less than 50 Ω over the required
frequency range. Generally, this is achieved using 10 nF to 100 nF
capacitors.
The voltage-to-current conversion factor is set at 100 mA/V by
the internal resistors, and the bias current is monitored using a
current mirror with a gain equal to 1/100. By connecting a 1 kΩ
resistor between IBMON and VEE, the bias current can be monitored as a voltage across the resistor. A low temperature coefficient
precision resistor must be used for the IBMON resistor (RIBMON).
Any error in the value of RIBMON that is due to tolerances or to drift
in its value over temperature contributes to the overall error
budget for the IBIAS monitor voltage. If the IBMON voltage is
connected to an ADC for analog-to-digital conversion, RIBMON
should be placed close to the ADC to minimize errors due to
voltage drops on the ground plane.
The equivalent circuits of the BSET, IBIAS, and IBMON pins
are shown in Figure 20, Figure 21, and Figure 22.
In SFP+ MSA applications, the DATAP and DATAN pins need
to be connected to the SFP+ connector directly. This connection
requires enhanced ESD protection to support the SFP+ module
hot plug-in application.

The modulation current can be controlled by applying a dc

Figure 23. Recommended Configuration for the BSET, IBIAS, and IBMON Pins
The circuit used to drive the BSET voltage must be able to drive
the 1 kΩ input resistance of the BSET pin. For proper operation
of the bias current source, the voltage at the IBIAS pin must be
between the compliance voltage specifications for this pin over
supply, temperature, and bias current range (see Table 1). The
maximum compliance voltage is specified for only two bias
current levels (10 mA and 100 mA), but it can be calculated for
any bias current by
VCOMPLIANCE_MAX (V) = VCC (V) − 0.75 − 4.4 × IBIAS
(1)
See the Applications Information section for examples of
headroom calculations.
The function of the inductor, L, is to isolate the capacitance of
the IBIAS output from the high frequency signal path. For
recommended components, see Table 7.
AUTOMATIC LASER SHUTDOWN (ALS)
The ALS pin is a digital input that enables/disables both the bias
and modulation currents, depending on the logic state applied,
as shown in Table 5.

Figure 25. Generation of Modulation Current on the ADN2526
This dc current is switched by the data signal applied to the
input stage (DATAP and DATAN pins) and amplified by the
output stage to generate the differential modulation current at
the IMODP and IMODN pins.
The output stage also generates the active back-termination,
which provides proper transmission line termination. Active
back-termination uses feedback around an active circuit to
synthesize a broadband termination resistance. This provides
excellent transmission line termination, while dissipating less
power than a traditional resistor passive back-termination.
A small portion of the modulation current flows in the virtual
50 Ω active back-termination resistor. All of the preset IMOD
modulation current, the range specified in Table 1, flows into
the external load. The equivalent circuits for MSET, IMODP, and
IMODN are shown in Figure 26 and Figure 27. The two 25 Ω
resistors in Figure 27 are not actual resistors. They represent the
active back-termination resistance.

recommended components.
The circuit used to drive the MSET voltage must be able to
drive the 1 kΩ resistance of the MSET pin. To be able to drive
80 mA modulation currents through the differential load, the
output stage of the ADN2526 (the IMODP and IMODN pins)
must be ac-coupled to the load. The voltages at these pins have
a dc component equal to VCC and an ac component with
single-ended, peak-to-peak amplitude of IMOD × 25 Ω. This is
the case even if the load impedance is less than 50 Ω differential,
because the transmission line characteristic impedance sets the
peak-to-peak amplitude. For proper operation of the output stage,
the voltages at the IMODP and IMODN pins must be between
the compliance voltage specifications for these pins over supply,
temperature, and modulation current range, as shown in Figure 30.
See the Applications Information section for examples of
headroom calculations.

LOAD MISTERMINATION
Due to its excellent S22 performance, the ADN2526 can drive
differential loads that range from 5 Ω to 50 Ω. In practice, many
TOSAs have differential resistance less than 50 Ω. In this case, with
50 Ω differential transmission lines connecting the ADN2526 to
the load, the load end of the transmission lines are misterminated.
This mistermination leads to signal reflections back to the driver.
The excellent back-termination in the ADN2526 absorbs these
reflections, preventing their reflection back to the load. This
enables excellent optical eye quality to be achieved, even when
the load end of the transmission lines is significantly misterminated. The connection between the load and the ADN2526 must
be made with 50 Ω differential (25 Ω single-ended) transmission
lines so that the driver end of the transmission lines is properly
terminated.

IMOD/VMSET (mA/V)
The ratio between the voltage applied to the MSET pin and the
differential modulation current available at the IMODP and
IMODN pins is a function of the load resistance value, as shown
in Figure 29.

CROSSPOINT ADJUSTMENT
The optical eye cross point is adjustable between 35% and 65%
using the cross point adjust (CPA) control input. The equivalent
circuit for the CPA pin is shown in Figure 31. In a default CPA
setting, leave CPA unconnected (maintain pin-to-pin compatibility with the ADN2525). The internal bias circuit presents about
1.9 V at the CPA pin and the eye cross point is set to 50%. To set
the cross point at various points, apply an external voltage to the
CPA pin.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
TYPICAL APPLICATION CIRCUIT
LAYOUT GUIDELINES
Figure 34 shows the typical application circuit for the ADN2526.
The dc voltages applied to the BSET and MSET pins control the
bias and modulation currents. The bias current can be monitored
as a voltage drop across the 1 kΩ resistor connected between
the IBMON pin and GND. The ALS pin allows the user to turn
on or turn off the bias and modulation currents, depending on
the logic level applied to the pin. The data signal source must be
connected to the DATAP and DATAN pins of the ADN2526
using 50 Ω transmission lines. The modulation current outputs,
IMODP and IMODN, must be connected to the load (TOSA)
using 50 Ω differential (25 Ω single-ended) transmission lines.
It is recommended that the components shown in Table 7 be
used between the ADN2526 and the TOSA for an example ac
coupling circuit. For up-to-date component recommendations,
contact your local Analog Devices, Inc., sales representative.
Due to the high frequencies at which the ADN2526 operates,
care should be taken when designing the PCB layout to obtain
optimum performance. Well controlled transmission line
impedance must be used for the high speed signal paths. The
length of the transmission lines must be kept to a minimum to
reduce losses and pattern-dependent jitter. The PCB layout
must be symmetrical, on both the DATAP and DATAN inputs
and the IMODP and IMODN outputs, to ensure a balance
between the differential signals. All VCC and VEE pins must be
connected to solid copper planes by using low inductance
connections. When the connections are made through vias,
multiple vias should be used in parallel to reduce the parasitic
inductance. Each VEE pin must be locally decoupled with high
quality capacitors. If proper decoupling cannot be achieved
using a single capacitor, the user can use multiple capacitors in
parallel for each VEE pin. A 20 μF tantalum capacitor must be
used as a general decoupling capacitor for the entire module. For
guidelines on the surface-mount assembly of the ADN2526, see
the Amkor Technology® Application Notes for Surface Mount
Assembly of Amkor’s MicroLeadFrame® (MLF®) Packages.
Working with a TOSA laser sample, the circuit in Figure 34
delivers optical performance shown in Figure 15 and Figure 16.

DESIGN EXAMPLE
This design example covers:
•
•
Headroom calculations for the IBIAS, IMODP, and
IMODN pins.
Calculation of the typical voltage required at the BSET and
MSET pins to produce the desired bias and modulation
currents.
This design example assumes that the resistance of the TOSA is
25 Ω, the forward voltage of the laser at low current is VF = 1 V,
IBIAS = 40 mA, IMOD = 60 mA, and VCC = 3.3 V.
Headroom Calculations
To ensure proper device operation, the voltages on the IBIAS,
IMODP, and IMODN pins must meet the compliance voltage
specifications in Table 1.
VLB is the dc voltage drop across L1, L2, L3, and L4. Assuming
that VLB = 0 V and IMOD = 60 mA, the minimum voltage at the
modulation output pins is equal to
VCC − (IMOD × 25)/2 = VCC − 0.75
VCC − 0.75 > VCC − 1.1 V, which satisfies the requirement.
The maximum voltage at the modulation pins is equal to
VCC + (IMOD × 25)/2 = VCC + 0.75
VCC + 0.75 < VCC + 1.1 V, which satisfies the requirement.
Headroom calculations must be repeated for the minimum and
maximum values of the required IBIAS and IMOD ranges to
ensure proper device operation over all operating conditions.
BSET and MSET Pin Voltage Calculation
Considering the typical application circuit shown in Figure 34,
the voltage at the IBIAS pin can be written as
VIBIAS = VCC − VF − (IBIAS × RTOSA) − VLA
where:
VCC is the supply voltage.
VF is the forward voltage across the laser at low current.
RTOSA is the resistance of the TOSA.
VLA is the dc voltage drop across L5, L6, L7, and L8.
To set the desired bias and modulation currents, the BSET and
MSET pins of the ADN2526 must be driven with the appropriate
dc voltage. The voltage range required at the BSET pin to generate
the required IBIAS range can be calculated using the BSET voltage
to IBIAS gain specified in Table 1. Assuming that IBIAS = 40 mA
and the typical IBIAS/VBSET ratio of 100 mA/V, the BSET voltage
is given by
VBSET =
100 mA/V
=
40
= 0.4 V
100
The BSET voltage range can be calculated using the required
IBIAS range and the minimum and maximum BSET voltage to
IBIAS gain values specified in Table 1.
For proper operation, the minimum voltage at the IBIAS pin
should be greater than 0.6 V, as specified by the minimum
IBIAS compliance specification in Table 1.
The voltage required at the MSET pin to produce the desired
modulation current can be calculated using
Assuming that the voltage drop across the 25 Ω transmission
lines is negligible and that VLA = 0 V, VF = 1 V, and IBIAS =
40 mA
VMSET =
VIBIAS = 3.3 − 1 − (0.04 × 25) = 1.3 V
IMOD
K
where K is the MSET voltage to IMOD ratio.
VIBIAS = 1.3 V > 0.6 V, which satisfies the requirement.
The maximum voltage at the IBIAS pin must be less than the
maximum IBIAS compliance specification as described by
VCOMPLIANCE_MAX = VCC − 0.75 − 4.4 × IBIAS
IBIAS (mA)
(2)
For this example,
VCOMPLIANCE_MAX = VCC – 0.75 − 4.4 × 0.04 = 2.53 V
The value of K depends on the actual resistance of the TOSA.
It can be read using the plot shown in Figure 29. For a TOSA
resistance of 25 Ω, the typical value of K is equal to 120 mA/V.
Assuming that IMOD = 60 mA and using the preceding
equation, the MSET voltage is given by
VMSET =
VIBIAS = 1.3 V < 2.53 V, which satisfies the requirement.
To calculate the headroom at the modulation current pins
(IMODP and IMODN), the voltage has a dc component equal
to VCC, due to the ac-coupled configuration, and a swing equal
to IMOD × 25 Ω. For proper operation of the ADN2526, the
voltage at each modulation output pin should be within the
normal operation region shown in Figure 30.
IMOD (mA)
120 mA/V

= 0. 5 V

The MSET voltage range can be calculated using the required
IMOD range and the minimum and maximum K values. These
can be obtained from the minimum and maximum curves in
Figure 29.
