www.DataSheet4U.com PX6514 4 x 10 Gb/s VCSEL Driver Product Brief April 2006 Features Single +3.3 V supply dissipating 140 mW per channel 4-channel VCSEL driver operates from DC to 10.7 Gb/s Serial digital interface for global and individual channel control Individual channel control for enable, modulation current, bias current, and VCSEL fault control Adjustable temperature compensation for VCSEL bias and modulation current VCSEL fault detection with autonomous fault handling and interrupt Adjustable VCSEL peaking control 250-micron channel pitch matches optical ribbon fiber and VCSEL arrays Differential CML compatible inputs with on-chip termination Description The growing use of the Internet has created increasingly higher demand for multi-Gb/s I/O performance. The demand for 100 Gb/s+ WAN bandwidth fuels the growth of short-reach 40 Gb/s infrastructures within high-end telco and datacom routers, switches, servers and other proprietary chassis-to-chassis links. The Zarlink PX6514 4x10 Gb/s VCSEL Driver is a four-channel VCSEL driver designed for various 4x10 Gb/s parallel optics and CWDM PMD applications. It consists of a DC-coupled amplifier with selectable modulation and bias currents optimized for driving commercially available, common cathode VCSELs from a single +3.3 V supply. Individual channel settings are used to control the modulation and bias current and their temperature coefficients, allowing the optical output power and extinction ratio to be optimize...
