MAX3273ETG+T
+3.3V, 2.5Gbps Low-Power Laser Driver
General Description
The MAX3273 is a compact, low-power laser driver for
applications up to 2.7Gbps. The device uses a single
+3.3V supply and typically consumes 30mA. The bias
and modulation current levels are programmed by
external resistors. An automatic power-control (APC)
loop is incorporated to maintain a constant average
optical power over temperature and lifetime. The laser
driver is fabricated using Maxim’s in-house, second-
generation SiGe process.
The MAX3273 accepts differential CML-compatible
clock and data input signals. Inputs are self-biased to
allow AC-coupling. An input data-retiming latch can be
enabled to reject input jitter if a clock signal is available.
The driver can provide bias current up to 100mA and
modulation current up to 60mAP-Pwith typical (20% to
80%) edge speeds of 59ps. A failure-monitor output is
provided to indicate when the APC loop is unable to
maintain average optical power. The MAX3273 is avail-
able in 4mm ✕4mm, 24-pin QFN and thin QFN pack-
ages, as well as in die form.

MAX3273
+3.3V, 2.5Gbps Low-Power Laser Driver
Detailed Description

The MAX3273 laser driver consists of two main parts: a
high-speed modulation driver and a laser-biasing block
with automatic power control (APC). The circuit design
is optimized for both high-speed and low-voltage
(+3.3V) operation. To minimize the jitter of the input sig-
nal at speeds as high as 2.7Gbps, the device accepts
a differential CML clock signal for data retiming. When
LATCH is high, the input data is synchronized by the
clock signal. When LATCH is low, the input data is
directly applied to the output stage.
The output stage is composed of a high-speed differ-
ential pair and a programmable modulation current
source. Because the modulation output drives a maxi-
mum current of 60mA into the laser with an edge speed
of 59ps, large transient voltage spikes can be generat-
ed (due to the parasitic inductance of the laser). These
transients and the laser-forward voltage leave insuffi-
cient headroom for the proper operation of the laser dri-
ver if the modulation output is DC-coupled to the laser
diode. To solve this problem, the MAX3273’s modula-
tion output is AC-coupled to the cathode of a laser
diode. An external pullup inductor is necessary to DC-
bias the modulation output at VCC. Such a configuration
isolates laser-forward voltage from the output circuitry
and the supply voltage VCC. A simplified functional dia-
gram is shown in Figure 3.
The MAX3273 modulation output is optimized for dri-
ving a 25Ωload. Modulation current swings of 75mA
are possible, but because of minimum power-supply
and jitter requirements at 2.5Gbps, the specified maxi-
mum modulation current is limited to 60mA. To inter-
face with the laser diode, a damping resistor (RD) is
required for impedance matching. An RC-shunt net-
work might also be necessary to compensate for the
laser-diode parasitic inductance, thereby improving the

optical output ringing and duty-cycle distortion. Refer to
Maxim application note HFAN 02.0, Interfacing Maxim
Laser Drivers with Laser Diodes, for more information.
At the data rate of 2.5Gbps, any capacitive load at the
cathode of a laser diode degrades the optical output
performance. Because the BIAS output is directly con-
nected to the laser cathode, the parasitic capacitance
associated with this pin is minimized by using an induc-
tor to isolate the BIAS pin from the laser cathode.
Automatic Power Control (APC)

To maintain constant average optical power, the
MAX3273 incorporates an APC loop to compensate for
the changes in laser threshold current over temperature
and lifetime. A back-facet photodiode mounted in the
laser package is used to convert the optical power into
a photocurrent. The APC loop adjusts the laser bias
current so that the monitor current is matched to a ref-
erence current set by RAPCSET. The time constant of
the APC loop is determined by an external capacitor
(CAPCFILT). To minimize the pattern-dependent jitter
associated with the APC loop-time constant, and to
guarantee loop stability, the recommended value for
CAPCFILTis 0.01µF.
When the APC loop is functioning, the maximum allow-
able bias current is set by an external resistor, RBIASMAX.
An APC failure flag (FAIL) is asserted low when the bias
current can no longer be adjusted to achieve the desired
average optical power.
APC closed-loop operation requires the user to set three
currents with external resistors connected between
ground and BIASMAX, MODSET, and APCSET (see
Figure 3). Detailed guidelines for these resistor settings
are described in the Design Procedure section.
Open-Loop Operation

If necessary, the MAX3273 is fully operational without
APC. To disable the APC loop, ground the APCFILT1
pin. In this case, the laser current is directly set by two
external resistors connected from ground to BIASMAX
and MODSET. See the Design Proceduresection for
more details on open-loop operation.
Optional Data Input Latch

To minimize jitter in the input data, connect a synchro-
nous differential clock signal to the CLK+ and CLK-
inputs. When the LATCH control input is tied high, the
input data is retimed on the rising edge of CLK+. If
LATCH is tied low or left floating, the retiming function is
disabled and the input data is directly connected to the
output stage. When this latch function is not used, con-
nect CLK+ to VCCand leave CLK- unconnected.
Output Enable

The MAX3273 incorporates a TTL/CMOS input to
enable the output. When ENis low, the modulation and
bias outputs are enabled. When ENis high or floating,
both the bias and modulation currents are off. The typi-
cal enable time is 364ns, and the typical disable time is
27ns when the bias is operated open loop.
Slow-Start

For laser safety reasons, the MAX3273 incorporates a
slow-start circuit that provides a delay of 364ns for
enabling a laser diode.
APC Failure Monitor

The MAX3273 provides an APC failure monitor
(TTL/CMOS) to indicate an APC loop tracking failure.
FAILis asserted low when the APC loop no longer can
regulate the bias current to maintain the desired moni-
tor diode current. FAILasserts low when the APC loop
is disabled.
Short-Circuit Protection

The MAX3273 provides short-circuit protection for the
modulation and bias current sources. If BIASMAX,
MODSET, or APCSET is shorted to ground, the bias
and modulation output turns off.
Design Procedure

When designing a laser transmitter, the optical output
usually is expressed in terms of average power and
extinction ratio. Table 1 gives relationships helpful in
converting between the optical average power and the
modulation current. These relationships are valid if the
mark density and duty cycle of the optical waveform
are 50%.
Programming the Modulation Current

For a given laser power (PAVG), slope efficiency (η), and
extinction ration (re), the modulation current can be cal-
culated using Table 1. See the IMODvs. RMODSET
graph in the Typical Operating Characteristicsand
select the value of RMODSETthat corresponds to the
required current at +25°C. The equation below provides
a derivation of the modulation current using Table 1.PrMODAVEe××−21η
