2.5 Gbit/s Retiming Laser Driver GD16571 an Intel company Preliminary General Description Features The GD16571 is a high performance low power 2.5 Gbit/s Laser Driver with optional on chip retiming of data. The GD16571 is designed to meet and exceed ITU-T STM-16 or SONET OC-48 fiberoptic communication systems requirements. The GD16571 is designed to sink a Modulation Current into the IOUT pin and a Pre-Bias Current into the IPRE pin. The Modulation Current is adjustable up to 70 mA by means of the pin VMOD. The Pre-Bias Current may be adjusted up to 50 mA by means of the VPRE pin. VADJEF Retiming of the data signal connected to the pins DIN, DINQ is made by means of a DFF clocked by an external clock signal at the data rate fed to the pins CKIN and CKINQ. A Mark-Space monitor is available on the pins MARKP and MARKN. Together with the symmetry adjustment pin (SYM) this may be used to control the mark space ratio of the output signal. The GD16571 is implemented in a Silicon Bipolar process and requires a single +5 V supply or a single -5.2 V supply. The circuit is available in a thermally enhanced 32-pin TQFP plastic package.

Data Sheet Rev.: 10 Functional Details GD16571 the voltage overshoot is less than 2 % across the full modulation current range, when driving a 25 W load. Similarly the voltage undershoot is less than 5 %. The output modulation current is controlled by the pin VMOD and can be controlled in the range from 0 mA to 70 mA, however the specifications is only valid in the range from 5 mA to 70 mA. The output voltage swing across the external load may be varied accordingly. The modulation current control on pin VMOD is implemented as a current mirror and therefore sinks a current proportional to the modulation current. The current sink into the VMOD pin is approximately 3/80 of the modulation current. Two additional pins (VADJBUF and VADJEF) are available in order to optimise the performance of the output signal quality, specifically with respect to overshoot and undershoot. Typically best performance is obtained if these pins are connected to VMOD. GD16571 is a 2.5 Gbit/s laser driver with an optional retiming of the data signal. It is capable of driving high power laser diodes, typically having input impedance of 25 W, at a maximum modulation current of 70 mA and a maximum pre-bias current of 50 mA. Data (DIN, DINQ) is input to GD16571 and retimed within a DFF clocked by an external clock (CKIN, CKINQ). Optionally the retiming may be bypassed controlled by a select pin (CKSEL). Both the differential data (DIN, DINQ) and clock inputs (CKIN, CKINQ) are internally terminated to 50 W. Termination is made with a 50 W resistor from the two differential inputs to a common pin called DINT and CKINT respectively. The input sensitivity when driven with a single ended signal is better than 150 mV on both clock and data inputs. A mark-space monitor is provided through the pins MARKP and MARKN. These may be connected as shown in the application diagram below, with a capacitor across the two outputs and a comparator (or Op-amp) to determine the mark density. Symmetry input (SYM) is available which may be used to control the mark-space ratio. AC Coupled Output When DC coupled the output swing will be limited by IOUT output voltage specified to -2 V. For maximum output voltage swing the output should be AC coupled. The pre-bias current is controlled by the pin VPRE and can be controlled from 0 mA to 50 mA. The pre-bias current control on pin VPRE is implemented as a current mirror and therefore sinks a current proportional to the pre-bias current. The current sink into the VPRE pin is approximately 3/500 of the pre-bias current. The output pin (IOUT) is an open collector output designed for driving external loads with 25 W characteristic impedance. Because of the nature of an open collector the output therefore may be regarded as a current switch, with infinite output impedance. The characteristic impedance through the package is approximately 25 W. Optimum performance of GD16571 therefore is achieved if the output is terminated into a 25 W impedance.

GD16571 has been designed with special emphasis on achieving a very small voltage overshoot.

The AC parameters are only specified in the range from -70 mA to -5 mA. However at TCASE = 0 C to 70 C AC parameters are specified from -80 mA to -5 mA. This is a leakage current. Max leakage current is present at max modulation current (i.e. at 70 mA modulation current). The leakage current decreases for smaller leakage currents.
