MAX3798 Datasheet Low-power Sfp Limiting Amplifier And Vcsel Driver

Manufacturer: Maxim Integrated (now Analog Devices)

Overview: 19-4360; Rev 0; 10/08 .. 1.0625Gbps to 10.32Gbps, Integrated, LowPower SFP+ Limiting Amplifier and VCSEL.

General Description

The MAX3798 is a highly integrated limiting amplifier and VCSEL driver designed for 1x/2x/4x/8x Fibre Channel transmission systems at data rates up to 8.5Gbps as well as for 10GBASE-SR transmission systems at a data rate of 10.3125Gbps.

Operating from a single +3.3V supply, this low-power integrated limiting amplifier and VCSEL driver IC enables a platform design for SFP MSA as well as for SFP+ MSA-based optical transceivers.

The high-sensitivity limiting amplifier limits the differential input signal generated by a transimpedance amplifier into a CML-level differential output signal.

Key Features

  • Low Power Dissipation of 320mW at 3.3V Power Supply.
  • Up to 10.32Gbps (NRZ) Operation.
  • 3mVP-P Receiver Sensitivity at 10.32Gbps.
  • 4psP-P DJ at Receiver Output at 8.5Gbps 8B/10B.
  • 4psP-P DJ at Receiver Output at 10.32Gbps 231 - 1 PRBS.
  • 26ps Rise and Fall Time at Rx/Tx Output.
  • Mode Select for High-Gain Mode and HighBandwidth Mode.
  • CML Output Slew-Rate Adjustment for High-Gain Mode.
  • CML Output with Continuous Level Adjus.
