ADI EVAL-CN0579-ARDZ

Overview

Glenair 050-301 Size 8 Cavity Optoelectronic Contacts transmit and receive differential current-mode logic (CML) electrical signals over multimode fiber optic cable. Transmitters consist of a laser driver and a 850nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) laser. The laser driver includes a temperature compensation circuit to maintain optical power over the entire operating temperature range. Receivers consist of an 850nm PIN photo detector, a transimpedance amplifier with automatic gain control circuit, and a limiting amplifier. Differential output data signals are CML compatible. The transmitter has a Tx disable pin to turn off transmitter output and a Tx fault pin to signal a fault condition. The receiver includes a CMOS compatible loss of signal indicator to prevent invalid data.
