OC-48/STM-16 Transmitter
STX48 Series
Product Description
The STX48 modules are laser transmitters designed to meet or exceed
the SONET/SDH optical interface requirements at OC-48/STM-16 (2.5
Gb/s) data rate. Many performance versions are available which are fully
compliant with Short Reach, Intermediate Reach and Long Reach specifi-
cations at 1310 nm or 1550 nm wavelength. The Short Reach version uses
uncooled Fabry Perot lasers while the Intermediate Reach version uses
uncooled DFB lasers. For the Long Reach version, uncooled DFB lasers
with internal optical isolators are used. All modules satisfy Class I Laser
Safety requirements in accordance with the US FDA/CDRH and interna-
tional IEC-825 standards.
The transmitter incorporates an Automatic Power Control (APC) circuit to
maintain the optical output power at a constant level against variations
in ambient temperature and device aging. It also features a Mode Selec-
tor input pin which selects between clocked and non-clocked operation.
In the clocked operation mode, the input DATA is resynchronized by the
input CLOCK before driving the laser diode in order to reduce output jit-
ter to a minimum. A Transmitter Disable control input is also provided.
Both the laser bias current and back-facet light output can be monitored
as well.
All STX48 transmitter modules are available in two power supply options:
single +5V and single -5 V. The DATA and CLOCK interface can either be
direct PECL/ECL or via AC coupling. The operating temperature range is
-40°C to +85°C for the Short Reach and Intermediate Reach 1310 nm ver-
sion and 0°C to +70°C for the Long Reach version. All modules are housed
in a 24-pin dual-in-line metal package with a single mode fiber pigtail,
which is terminated with ST, FC or SC connector.

Application Notes
When the DATA+ input is at logic HIGH and DATA- input is
at logic LOW, the LD is ON; and vice versa. The transmitter is
normally enabled (i.e. when the TX DISABLE control input is
not connected). When the TX DISABLE input voltage is higher
than
V
CC
- 2 V, the laser is disabled (less than -30dBm output
power) independent of the input data.
The transmitter incorporates an Average Power Control (APC)
loop to stabilize the transmitter average optical output power
against temperature variation. The APC loop always acts
to keep the transmitter average optical output power at a
constant value (when the transmitter is enabled). Therefore,
when the input data is all continuous “zeroes” or all continuous
“ones”, the transmitter optical output power is a constant level
equal to the nominal average optical output power (not at the
“OFF” level or at the “ON” level).
When the MODE SELECTOR input is left unconnected or at
logic “LOW” (V
EE
to
V
EE
+ 1.5V), the transmitter is in clocked
Interface Circuit
operation mode. In this mode, the input clock resynchronizes
the incoming data to reduce timing jitter. The timing between
the DATA and CLOCK inputs is as shown below. When the
MODE SELECTOR input at logic “HIGH” (V
CC
- 1.5V to
V
CC
),
the transmitter is in non-clocked operation mode. In this
mode, the CLOCK inputs are not used and hence need not
be provided.
The transmitter has internal 50 ohm termination to
V
TD
(pin 6)
for DATA inputs &
V
TC
(pin 19) for CLOCK inputs. The DATA &
CLOCK interface can be either direct PECL/ECL coupling or via
AC coupling as shown below. The use of differential signals is
strongly recommended. In cases where only single-ended signal
is available, the unused DATA input pin should be biased to
V
CC
- 1.29 V for direct PECL/ ECL coupling or bypassed to AC Ground
for AC coupling. Similarly, the unused CLOCK input pin should
be bypassed with a 0.01 μF capacitor to
V
EE
.
