LONG WAVELENGTH LASER
The SLC-25-8-2-TXXL is provided with single mode optics.
The 1300 nm laser provides highly reliable single mode
communications which meets or exceeds the Fibre
Channel distance requirements.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
SHORT WAVELENGTH LASER
The use of short wavelength VCSELs (Vertical Cavity
Surface-Emitting Laser) and high volume production
processes has resulted in a low cost, high performance
product available in various data transfer rates up to 2.125
GBaud. The Stratos 1x Fibre Channel 850nm SLC-25 is
compatible with legacy 850nm CD laser Fibre Channel
transmitter.
The SLC-25-8-X-TXXL Small Form Factor (SFF) optical
transceivers are high performance integrated duplex data
links for bi-directional communication over multimode or
single mode optical fibre. The SLC-25-8 module is
specifically designed for high speed Fibre Channel data
links at 2.125 GBaud. Stratos 2x Fibre Channel
transceivers are rate agile and compatible with 1x Fibre
Channel laser transmitters. The SLC-25-8 transceivers
are provided with the LC receptacle that is compatible with
the industry standard LC connector. The Stratos
Lightwave SFF transceivers measure 0.532 inches in
width. These transceivers provide double port densities by
fitting twice the number of transceivers onto the same
board as compared to a 1x9 transceiver. This saves on
system costs and can reduce overall design time. The
SLC-25-8-X-TXXL operates at +3.3V.
This optoelectronic transceiver module is a class 1 laser
product compliant with FDA Radiation Performance
Standards, 21 CFR Subchapter J. This component is also
class 1 laser compliant according to International Safety
Standard IEC-825-1.

TERMINATION CIRCUITS
Inputs to the SLC-25 transmitter are AC coupled and internally terminated through 50 ohms to AC ground. These
transceivers can operate with PECL or CML logic levels. The input signal must have at least a 200 mV peak to peak
(single ended) signal swing. Output from the receiver section of the module is also AC coupled and is expected to drive
into a 50 ohm load. Different termination strategies may be required depending on the particular Serializer/Deserializer
chip set used.

with CML Inputs/Outputs
Note 1. Consult SERDES manufacturer’s data sheet and application data for appropriate receiver input biasing network.
Some deserializer inputs are internally terminated and may not need external termination resistors.
Figure 1. Recommended TRANSMIT and RECEIVE Data Terminations for SERDES with CML I/Os.
The SLC-25 product family is designed with AC coupled data inputs and outputs to provide the following advantages:
!Close positioning of SERDES with respect to transceiver; allows for shorter line lengths and at
gigabit speeds reduces EMI.
!Minimum number of external components.
!Internal termination reduces the potential for unterminated stubs which would otherwise increase
jitter and reduce transmission margin.
Subsequently, this affords the customer the ability to optimally locate the SERDES as close to the SLC-25 as possible
and save valuable real estate on PCI cards and other small circuit assemblies. At gigabit rates this can provide a
significant advantage resulting in better transmission performance and accordingly better signal integrity.
AC coupling allows the Stratos Lightwave SLC-25 to be applied across a wider range of applications without modification.
This benefits users in terms of enhanced RF performance, reduced component count, tighter layout and fewer design
problems.
Figure 1 & 2 illustrates the recommended transmit and receive data line terminations for SERDES with CML and PECL
Inputs/Outputs respectively.

POWER COUPLING
A suggested layout for power and ground connections is given in figure 5B below. Connections are made via separate
voltage and ground planes. The mounting posts are at case ground and should not be connected to circuit ground. The
ferrite bead should provide a real impedance of 50 to 100 ohms at 100 to 1000 MHz. Bypass capacitors should be
placed as close to the 10-pin connector as possible.
SIGNAL DETECT
The SLC-25 transceivers are equipped with TTL signal detect outputs. The standard TTL output eliminates the need for a
PECL to TTL level shifter in most applications. The SFF adhoc industry standard provides for a TTL level SIgnal Detect
output.

MECHANICAL DIMENSIONS – ( INDIVIDUAL MOUNT )
EMI and ESD CONSIDERATIONS
Stratos Lightwave optoelectronic transceivers offer a Die Cast Metal case and two types of chassis grounding clips
(Individual & Gang Mount). As shown in the drawing, both clips connect the module case to chassis ground when
installed flush through the panel cutout. The grounding clip in this way brushes the edge of the cutout in order to make a
proper contact. The use of a grounding clip also provides increased electrostatic protection and helps reduce radiated
emissions from the module or the host circuit board through the chassis faceplate. The attaching posts are at case
potential and may be connected to chassis ground. They should not be connected to circuit ground.
PANEL CUTOUT DIMENSIONS – ( INDIVIDUAL MOUNT )
Plastic optical subassemblies are used to further reduce the possibility of radiated emissions in multimode transceiver.
By providing a non-metal receptacle for the optical cable ferrule, the gigabit speed RF electrical signal is isolated from
the connector area thus preventing radiated energy leakage from these surfaces to the outside of the panel.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
The SLC-25 features a compact design with a standard LC duplex connector for fibre optic connections. The 10-pin
connector (70 mil spacing) provides the electrical connection for all operation. With a height of 9.8 mm the SLC-25 fits
mezzanine card applications. An epoxy encapsulation provides excellent protection from environmental hazards and
assists in heat dissipation for all components. Two wave-solderable posts are provided for attaching the package to the
circuit board without the need for multiple attachment operations.
