MAX3261
19-0323; Rev 5; 5/01
Single +5V, Fully Integrated, 1.25Gbps Laser Diode Driver
_______________General Description
The MAX3261 is a complete, easy-to-program, single +5V-powered, 1.25Gbps laser diode driver with complementary enable inputs and automatic power control (APC). The MAX3261 accepts differential PECL inputs and provides complementary output currents. A temperature-stabilized reference voltage is provided to simplify laser current programming. This allows modulation current to be programmed up to 30mA and bias current to be programmed up to 60mA with two external resistors.
Complementary enable inputs allow the MAX3261 to interface with open-fiber-control architecture—a feature not found in other 1.25Gbps laser diode drivers.
