MAX3657 Datasheet 155mbps Low-noise Transimpedance Amplifier

Manufacturer: Maxim Integrated (now Analog Devices)

Overview: 19-2834; Rev 2; 2/04 155Mbps Low-Noise Transimpedance Amplifier General.

General Description

The MAX3657 is a transimpedance preamplifier for receivers operating up to 155Mbps.

The low noise, high gain, and low-power dissipation make it ideal for Class-B and Class-C passive optical networks (PONs).

The circuit

Key Features

  • 14nA input-referred noise, 130MHz bandwidth, and 2mA input overload. Low jitter is achieved without external compensation capacitors. Operating from a +3.3V supply, the MAX3657 consumes only 76mW power. An integrated filter resistor provides positive bias for the photodiode. These features, combined with a small die size, allow easy assembly into a TO-46 header with a photodiode. The MAX3657 includes an average photocurrent monitor. The MAX3657 has a typical optical sensitivity of -38dBm (0.9A/W.
