HFBR-0600Z Series
SERCOS Fiber Optic Transmitters and Receivers
Data Sheet
SERCOS
SERCOS is a Serial Realtime Communication System, a
standard digital interface for communication between
controls and drives for numerically controlled machines.
The SERCOS interface speci cation was written by a joint
working group of the VDW (German Machine Tool Builders
Association) and ZVEI (German Electrical and Electronic
Manufacturers Association) to allow data exchange
between NC controls and drives via  ber optic rings, with
isolation and noise immunity. The HFBR-0600Z family
of  ber optic transmitters and receivers comply to the
SERCOS speci cations for transmitter and receiver optical
characteristics and connector style (SMA).
Description
The HFBR-0600Z components are capable of operation at
symbol rates from DC to over 2 MBd and distances from
0 to over 20 metres. The HFBR-1602Z and HFBR-1604Z
transmitters contain a 655 nm AlGaAs emitter capable of
e ciently launching optical power into 1000 mm plastic
optical  ber. The optical output is speci ed at the end of
0.5 m of plastic optical  ber.
The HFBR-1604Z is a selected version of the HFBR-1602,
with power speci ed to meet the SERCOS high attenua-
tion speci cations.
The HFBR-2602Z receiver incorporates an integrated
photo IC containing a photodetector and DC ampli er
driving an open-collector Schottky output transistor. The
HFBR-2602Z is designed for direct interfacing to popular
logic families. The absence of an internal pullup resistor
allows the open-collector output to be used with logic
families such as CMOS requiring voltage excursions higher
than VCC. The HFBR-2602Z has a dynamic range of 15 dB.
Features
 Fully compliant to SERCOS optical speci cations

* Pins 1, 4, 5, and 8 are isolated from the internal circuitry, but
electrically connected to one another.
** Transmitter Pin 7 may be left unconnected if necessary.
In the receiver, both the opencollector “Data” output Pin 6
and VCC Pin 2 are referenced to “Common Pin 3 and 7.
It is essential that a bypass capacitor (0.1 F ceramic) be
connected from Pin 2 (VCC) to Pin 3 (circuit common) of
the receiver.
SMA is an industry standard  ber optic connector,
available from many  ber optic connector suppliers.
HFBR-4401Z is a kit consisting of 100 nuts and 100 washers
for panel mounting the HFBR-0600Z components.

Notes:
1. 2.0 mm from where leads enter case.
2. Typical data at TA = +25° C.
3. Thermal resistance is measured with the transmitter coupled to a connector assembly and  ber, and mounted on a printed circuit board.
4. Pins 2, 6, and 7 are welded to the cathode header connection to minimize the thermal resistance from junction to ambient. To further reduce the
thermal resistance, the cathode trace should be made as large as is consistent with good RF circuit design.
5. PT is measured with a large area detector at the end of 0.5 metre of plastic optical  ber with 1 mm diameter and numerical aperture of 0.5.
6. When changing W to dBm, the optical power is referenced to 1 mW (1000 W). Optical Power P(dBm) = 10 log [P (W)/1000 W].
7. Measured at the end of 1mm plastic  ber optic cable with a large area detector.
8. 8 mA load (5 x 1.6 mA), RL = 560 .
9. Propagation delay through the system is the result of several sequentially occurring phenomena. Consequently it is a combination of data-rate-
limiting e ects and of transmission-time e ects. Because of this, the data-rate limit of the system must be described in terms of time di erentials
between delays imposed on falling and rising edges. As the cable length is increased, the propagation delays increase. Data-rate, as limited by
pulse width distortion, is not a ected by increasing cable length if the optical power level at the receiver is maintained.
10. Pulse width distortion is the di erence between the delay of the rising and falling edges.
11. Both HFBR-1602Z and HFBR-1604Z meet the SERCOS "low attenuation" speci cations when operated at 35 mA; only HFBR-1604Z meets the
SERCOS "high attenuation" limits when operated at 60 mA.
