3.2Gbps SFP Transimpedance
Amplifiers with RSSI
General Description
The MAX3724/MAX3725 transimpedance amplifiers pro-
vide a compact, low-power solution for communication
up to 3.2Gbps. They feature 325nA input-referred noise
at 2.1GHz bandwidth (BW) with 0.6pF input capaci-
tance. The parts also have >2mA
P-P
AC input overload.
Both parts operate from a single +3.3V supply and con-
sume 93mW. The MAX3724/MAX3725 are in a compact
30-mil x 50-mil die and require no external compensa-
tion capacitor. A space-saving filter connection is pro-
vided for positive bias to the photodiode through an
on-chip 580Ω resistor to V
CC
. These features allow
easy assembly into a low-cost TO-46 or TO-56 header
with a photodiode.
The MAX3724 and MAX3748A receiver chip set pro-
vides an RSSI output using a Maxim-proprietary* inter-
face technique. The MAX3724 preamplifier, MAX3748A
postamplifier, and the DS1858/DS1859 SFP controller
meet all the SFF-8472 digital diagnostic requirements.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
