Modulation frequency is adjusted in both channels simultaneously by an external resistor Rf tied to the ground. The amplitude of the high frequency current is set for each channel separately by a DC input current applied to the appropriate input pin (IA or IB for Laser A or Laser B, respectively). Current gain from input to output is 100m A/m A (typical). The input current at pins IA and IB is monitored to determine which channel is active. In the event input current in both channels is below the active threshold level (approximately 2.65m A), the SP8110 will enter Power Save mode. In the event a valid input current above the active threshold level is present on both inputs, an Error mode is assumed and the outputs of both channels are disabled. Supply current levels in Power Save and Error modes are below 0.2 and 0.8 m A respectively (maximum values). The SP8110 is manufactured in 0.5/0.6 µm CMOS technology.
