MIC3000 Overview
The MIC3000 enables the implementation of sophisticated, hot-pluggable fiber optic transceivers with intelligent laser control and Digital Diagnostic Monitoring Interface per SFF8472. It essentially integrates all non-datapath functions of an SFP transceiver into a tiny 4mm × 4mm MLF™ package. It also works well as a microcontroller peripheral in transponders or 10Gbps transceivers.
MIC3000 Key Features
- APC or constant-current laser bias Supports multiple laser types and bias circuit topologies Drives external low-cost BJ
- Monitors and reports critical parameters: temperature, bias current, TX and RX optical power, and supply voltage
- S/W control and monitoring of TXFAULT, RXLOS, RATESELECT, and TXDISABLE
