Instructions for use – LC25FT
Pin 1 and Pin 2 Thermistor
The thermistor is initially used in a control loop in conjunction with the thermo-electric
cooler to maintain the laser submount temperature at the required value. Once the initial
sub-mount temperature is achieved control of the TEC current is handed over to the
etalon locking circuit to achieve fine tuning. Operating current should be less than 100µA
to prevent self-heating errors.
Pin 3 Laser DC bias (-)
Laser bias current (negative with respect to package ground) is applied via this pin,
which forms one side of the bias-T connection to the laser cathode.
Pin 4 & 10 Monitor anodes, Pin 5 Common Monitor cathode
The output from the wavelength monitor on pin 10 provides the frequency reference,
whilst the power monitor on pin 4 is independent of frequency and a function of laser
output power only. The laser wavelength is matched to a 50GHz ITU grid by adjusting
the ratio of the outputs from pins 4 and 10. Odd and even channels have reversed
locking slopes.
A reverse bias must be applied equally across each of the monitors; applying 5V to pin 5
commonly achieves this.
Pin 6 TEC (+), Pin 7 TEC (-)
Applying a positive voltage on pin 6 with respect to pin 7 will cause the internal sub mount
to be cooled relative to the case temperature. Reversing the polarity will raise the sub mount
temperature relative to the case.
Pin 8, 9, 11, 13 Case ground
These pins must be grounded in all applications.
Pin 12 Laser modulation (-)
The data input (modulation current) is applied via this pin which is a nominal 25Ω
impedance coplanar line. A maximum end of life modulation current of 60mA
should be provisioned.
Pin 14 N/C
This pin is not connected. It should be grounded if possible.

LC25FT4532AA-C28
is a 4mW 1545.32nm device with an SC/PC connector
for use in a 175km application.
E.g.

for use in a 360 km application.
Lead Trimming option
Devices can be supplied with the leads trimmed to a length of 3.81mm typ.
This option can be specified by adding a ‘K’ suffix after the reach option.
e.g. LC25FT4532AAK-C28 is a 4mW 1545.32 nm to 1547.72nm device with an
SC/PC connector and lead length of 3.81mm (typical) for use in a 175km application.
