622Mbps LAN/WAN Laser Driver with Automatic Power Control and Safety Shutdown
________________General Description
The MAX3766 is a complete, easy-to-program laser
driver for fiber optic LAN transmitters, optimized for
operation at 622Mbps. It includes a laser modulator,
automatic power control (APC), and a failure indicator
with latched shutdown.
Laser modulation current can be programmed up to
60mA at 622Mbps. A programmable modulation tem-
perature coefficient can be used to keep the transmit-
ted extinction ratio nearly constant over a wide
temperature range. The modulator operates at data
rates up to 1.25Gbps at reduced modulation current.
APC circuitry uses feedback from the laser’s monitor
photodiode to adjust the laser bias current, producing
constant output power regardless of laser temperature
or age. The MAX3766 supports laser bias currents up
to 80mA.
The MAX3766 provides extensive laser safety features,
including a failure indicator with latched shutdown and
a smooth start-up bias generator. These features help
ensure that the transmitter output does not reach haz-
ardous levels. The MAX3766 is available in a compact
20-pin QSOP and dice.

_______________Detailed Description

Figure 2 is a functional block diagram of the MAX3766
laser driver. The major functional blocks are the refer-
ence generator, PECL input buffer, laser-bias circuit,
modulation-current driver, automatic power control
(APC), failure detection, and safety circuit.
Reference Generator

The MAX3766 provides adjustments for maximum
laser-bias current, laser modulation current, and aver-
age laser power. To program these adjustments, simply
use the currents obtained by inserting a resistor in
series with integrated voltage references REF1 and
REF2. The temperature coefficient (tempco) of REF1
compensates for the tempco of the bias, modulation,
and APC current mirrors. Therefore, a programming
current derived from REF1 is constant with tempera-
ture. REF2 provides a positive tempco, which can be
applied to the modulation current. A positive modula-
tion-current tempco will compensate for the thermal
characteristics of typical laser diodes. The modulation-
current tempco is programmed by an external resistor
(RTC), which is connected from REF1 to TC. RTCand
an internal 2kΩresistor form a weighted sum of the
temperature-compensated reference (REF1) and the
temperature-increasing reference, which is buffered
and output at REF2. REF1 and REF2 are stable with no
bypass capacitance. Bypass filtering REF1 or REF2 is
not required.
PECL Input Buffer

The differential PECL input signals are connected to the
high-speed PECL input buffer at IN+ and IN-. The input
impedance at IN+ and IN- is greater than 100kΩ, and
the input bias current is less than 10µA. The
MAX3766’s data inputs are not self-biasing. The com-
mon-mode input should be set by the external PECL
termination circuitry. To obtain good AC performance,
inputs should always be greater than 2.2V and less
than VCC.
Laser Modulation-Current Driver

The laser modulation-current driver consists of a cur-
rent mirror and an emitter coupled pair. The mirror has
a gain of +30mA/mA. Modulation-current amplitude is
programmed with external resistor RMODconnected
from REF2 to MOD. RMODcan be estimated as follows:
with RTC= 0Ω.
The MAX3766 AC output drives up to 60mA of laser
current. Pulse-width distortion and overshoot are lowest
between 30mA and 60mA. However, output edge
speed increases at lower currents. When the output
current is between 2mA and 60mA, the edge speed is
suitable for communications up to 622Mbps. Edge
speeds below 30mA are suitable for communications up
to 1.25Gbps (see Typical Operating Characteristics).
The modulation-current tempco can be programmed
with an external resistor RTC, as described in the
Reference Generatorsection. An internal 520Ωresistor
is included to limit the maximum modulation current if
MOD is connected directly to REF2.
If the MAX3766 is shut down or disabled, the modula-
tion programming current is shunted to ground. Any
remaining modulation current is switched to OUT-.
For optimum performance, the voltage at OUT+ and
OUT- must always exceed VCC- 2.5V.
Laser Bias Circuit

The laser bias circuit is a current mirror with a gain of
+40mA/mA. Redundant controls disable the bias current
during a shutdown or disable event: the programming
current is switched off, and any remaining bias output
current is switched away from the laser. Ensure that the
voltage at BIAS always remains above VCC- 2.5V. If the
bias circuit is not used, connect BIAS to VCC.

The available laser bias current is programmed by
connecting external resistor RBIASMAXfrom REF1 to
BIASMAX. The BIASMAX programming current is
adjusted by the APC circuit and amplified by the laser
bias circuit.
An internal 520Ωresistor between BIASMAX and the
mirror input at internal node APC limits the maximum
laser bias current when BIASMAX is connected directly
to REF1. BIASMAX can be directly connected to REF1
in space-constrained designs, causing the maximum
programming current (about 2.5mA) to flow into
BIASMAX. Selecting a BIASMAX resistor saves power
and limits the transmitter’s maximum light output.
RBIASMAXcan be estimated as follows:

Figure 2. Functional Diagram
Automatic Power Control
Transmitters employing a laser with monitor photodiode
can use the APC circuit to maintain constant power,
regardless of laser threshold changes due to temperature
and aging. The APC circuit consists of the POWERSET
current mirror and the monitor diode amplifier.
The POWERSET current mirror provides an accurate
method of programming the back facet monitor photo-
diode current, which is assumed to be proportional to
laser output power. An external resistor from REF1 to
POWERSET programs the current in the unity-gain cur-
rent mirror. RPOWERSETcan be estimated as follows:
The monitor-diode amplifier senses the current from the
monitor photodiode at MD, provides gain, and adjusts
the laser bias programming current (ILBP). The monitor-
diode amplifier forces the monitor-diode current to
equal the current programmed at POWERSET. The
monitor-diode amplifier can reduce the laser bias pro-
gramming current, but cannot increase it. Therefore,
the APC circuit can adjust laser bias current between 0
and the setting determined by RBIASMAX.
When the APC feedback loop is closed, the voltage at
MD is approximately 2V below VCC. If the loop cannot
close due to excess or insufficient photocurrent, a fail-
ure is detected by the failure-detection circuit. Internal
circuitry prevents the voltage at MD from dropping
below VCC- 3.2V.
The stability and time constant of the APC feedback
loop is determined by an external compensation
capacitor (CMD) of at least 0.1µF. Connect the com-
pensation capacitor from VCCto MD, as shown in
Typical Application Circuits, to ensure a smooth start-
up at power-on or transmitter enable.
If a monitor diode is not available, the APC feature can
be disabled by connecting RPOWERSETto GND and
leaving MD unconnected.
Failure Detection

Figure 3 shows a simplified schematic of the failure-
detection circuit. The failure-detection circuit senses
two conditions. First, if the APC control loop cannot
control the monitor current due to laser undercurrent,
overcurrent, or a fault condition, a window comparator
detects that VMDis above or below VCC- 2V and
asserts the failure signal. Second, if REF1 is shorted to
the positive supply (or any another voltage above the
normal operating level), a comparator detects this con-
dition and asserts the failure signal. If left undetected,
the reference voltage would rise, the current at POWER-
SET would increase, and the APC loop would attempt to
add laser current beyond the intended value.
Either failure condition causes the FAILoutput to assert
TTL low. The FAILoutput buffer is an open-collector
output and is designed to operate with a 5.1kΩexternal
pull-up resistor.
Safety/Start-Up Circuit

The safety circuit includes the digital logic needed to
provide a latched internal shutdown signal (SHDN) for
disabling the laser if a failure condition exists. The
MAX3766 produces less than 20µA of total laser cur-
rent when disabled by safety features or by the
ENABLE input. Figure 4 is a simplified schematic of the
safety circuit.
If ENABLE is low or open, the laser bias and modula-
tion outputs are disabled by SHDN, regardless of the
state of the safety logic. The TTL-compatible ENABLE
input is internally pulled low with a 100kΩresistor.
There are two useful safety configurations: failure
indication and latched shutdown.
Failure-Indication Configuration

Select the failure-indication configuration by connecting
SAFETY to ground. In this configuration, a failure condi-
tion is reported at FAIL, but does not cause a latched
shutdown. This configuration requires no additional cir-
cuitry for start-up.

Latched Shutdown Configuration

This configuration is shown in the Typical Application
Circuits(configured for best performance), and can
be selected by connecting a capacitor (CSAFETY) to
ground at SAFETY. In this configuration, the transmitter
is shut down when a failure is detected. It can be
restarted only by a power-on cycle or a toggle of the
ENABLE input.
During start-up, FAILis asserted until laser power reach-
es the programmed level. The safety circuit must be dis-
abled at power-on or at transmitter enable, providing
enough time for the APC circuit to reach the programmed
laser power level.
In space-constrained designs, CSAFETYcan be select-
ed to provide a shutdown delay. When power is initially
applied, or when the ENABLE signal is toggled from a
logic 0 to a logic 1, the voltage at SAFETY is low, and
rises with a time constant set by CSAFETYand an inter-
nal 200kΩpull-up resistor. The SAFETY signal is invert-
ed and resets the input of a reset-dominant RS flip-flop.
The internal signal FAILURE from the failure-detection
circuit is connected to the set input of the flip-flop. After
SAFETY has gone high (allowing time for the APC feed-
back loop to settle) and if internal signal FAILURE is low,
the flip-flop output is low, and the bias and modulation
outputs are allowed to remain on. Refer to Figure 5 for
a timing diagram of start-up in the latched shutdown
configuration.
The duration of tSAFETY must be about 10 times tAPCfor
a successful start-up. After start-up, the transmitter
operates normally until a failure is detected, causing
the output currents to be shut down. The laser-current
outputs remain off until the failure condition is eliminat-
ed and the ENABLE input is toggled, or until the power
is cycled. A potential problem with this transmitter-
enable method is that a slow-rising power supply may
not enable the transmitter.
