AFBR-59F2Z Datasheet | Broadcom

Overview The Broad® AFBR-59F2Z transceiver provides system designers with the ability to support serial munication with baud rates of up to 250 MBd over 2.2-mm jacketed standard polymer optical fiber (POF). The innovative bare fiber locking mechanism of the transceiver allows connection of POF cable with a simple insertand-lock system eliminating the need for connectors. This facilitates fast installation and maintenance. The AFBR-59F2Z is Laser Class 1, lead-free and pliant with Ro HS. The very pact design is similar to that of the well-known RJ-45 connector. The transmitter consists of a 650-nm LED, which is controlled by a fully integrated driver IC. The LED driver operates at 3.3V. It receives low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) electrical input, and converts it into a modulated current driving the LED. LED and driver IC are packaged in an optical subassembly. The optimized lens system of the optical subassembly couples the emitted optical power very efficiently into 1-mm core POF cable. The receiver utilizes a fully integrated single chip solution that provides excellent immunity to EMI and fast transient d V/dt rejection. The receiver directly converts light to a digital LVDS output signal and operates at 3.3V nominal supply. The integrated receiver is packaged in an optical subassembly, which couples optical power efficiently from POF to the receiving PIN. The receiver features an analog monitor output of the ining optical signal. The monitor output provides an analog voltage proportional to the average optical input power. In absence of receiver optical input signal, the receiver is in low power sleep mode and the differential output signal is pulled to ground. The receiver wakes up, when a valid optical input signal is detected.
