High Sensitivity OC-3/STM-1 APD
Receivers
SRX03-APD
Product Description
The SRX03-APD is a high sensitivity receiver module designed to ex-
ceed the SONET/SDH optical interface requirements at OC-3/STM-1
(156Mb/s) data rate. Highly reliable InGaAs/InP avalanche photodiode
(APD) is used to cover the entire long wavelength range from 1100nm
to 1600nm.
The receivers feature a low noise GaAs transimpedance IC with AGC ca-
pability to provide an extremely wide dynamic range and high sensitiv-
ity. The APD bias voltage is temperature compensated to ensure stable
operation over the entire operating temperature range. A signal detect
function which indicates loss of optical input is provided. A differential
optical power monitor output is also available.
The SRX03-APD receivers require only a single +5V supply. The data in-
terfaces are differential PECL. The signal detect outputs can be either
PECL or TTL interface.
The SRX03-APD receivers can operate over an operating case temper-
ature range of 0°C to +70°C or -40°C to +85°C. The module is 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
The receiver converts the incident optical power to
a photocurrent via a high performance avalanche
photodiode (APD). The photocurrent can be monitored
via the differential voltage across the two VPM+ and
VPM- output pins. It is important to note that the
common mode voltage (i.e. DC voltages at PM+ and
VPM-) is high (-60V typical). The APD bias voltage is
temperature compensated to ensure stable operation
over the entire operating temperature range. The APD
bias voltage is also available as an output via the VPD
output. The maximum current that this output can
source is 1mA.
The signal detect circuit monitors the level of the
incoming optical signal and generates a logic LOW signal
when an insufficient photocurrent is produced.
Both differential DATA+ and DATA- outputs (also
SIGNAL DETECT+ and SIGNAL DETECT- if the PECL
option is chosen) are open emitter PECL levels
requiring termination (50Ω to VCC - 2V or 510Ω to
GND is recommended). Both differential outputs
should be terminated in the same manner, even if
only one is used.
If the TTL option is chosen for the SIGNAL DETECT
outputs, no termination resistor should be used.
The power supply line should be wellfiltered. The
power supply should be bypassed by 0.01 or 0.1μF
ceramic chip placed as close to the receiver module
as possible.
