Transceivers
Description
The HFBR-511X family of trans-
ceivers from Hewlett-Packard
consists of high performance,
cost effective modules for optical
data communication applications
at the 100 Mbps/125 MBd rate.
The transceivers feature full
compliance with the Fiber
Distributed Data Interface (FDDI)
Physical Media Dependent (PMD)
standard. This standard has been
approved as an International
Standard, ISO/IEC 9314-3, and
an American National Standard,
ANSI X3.166 - 1990. The HFBR-
5111 represents the 2x11
package style. The “2x11”
denotes two rows of eleven pins.
The HFBR-5112 and HFBR-5113
represent the Narrow and
Standard 1x13 package styles,
respectively. The “1x13” denotes
one row of thirteen pins.
The modules are designed for 50
or 62.5 µm core multimode
optical fiber and operate at a
nominal wavelength of 1300 nm.
Each transceiver incorporates
our high-performance, reliable,
long-wavelength optical devices
and proven circuit technology to
give long life and consistent
performance.
The transceivers are optimized
for 125 MBd operation but can be
used over a wide range of signal
rates. The transceivers are
guaranteed to meet FDDI PMD
specifications when used within
the operating conditions specified
in this document.
These HFBR-511X Series trans-
ceivers are also useful for both
ATM 100 Mbps interfaces and
Fast Ethernet 100 Base-FX
interfaces. The ATM Forum User-
Network Interface (UNI)
Standard, Version 3.0, defines the
Physical Layer for 100 Mbps
Multimode Fiber Interface for
ATM in Section 2.3 to be the
5964-9019E (2/96)
93
FDDI PMD standard. Likewise,
the Fast Ethernet Alliance defines
the Physical Layer for the 100
Base-FX Version of IEEE 802.3u
to be the FDDI PMD standard.
Hewlett-Packard also provides
several other FDDI products
compliant with the FDDI Low
Cost Fiber (LCF) -PMD and
Single Mode (SM) -PMD
standards. These products are
available with ST, SC, and FC
connector styles. They are
available in the 1x9 transceiver
and 14- and 16-pin transmitter/
receiver package styles for those
designs that require these
alternate configurations. Contact
your Hewlett-Packard sales
representative for information on
these alternative FDDI products.
Transmitter Section
The transmitter section of the
HFBR-511X Series utilizes a 1300
nm surface emitting InGaAsP
LED. The LED is packaged in the
optical subassembly portion of
the transmitter section. It is dc-
coupled to a custom IC which
converts differential-input, PECL
logic signals, ECL referenced
(shifted) to a +5 V power supply,
into an analog LED drive current.
Receiver Section
The receiver section of the
HFBR-511X Series utilizes an
InGaAs PIN photodiode coupled
to a custom silicon transimped-
ance preamplifier IC. They are
packaged in the optical sub-
assembly portion of the receiver.
The PIN/preamplifier combina-
tion is ac-coupled to a custom
quantizer IC which provides the
final pulse shaping for the logic
output and the Signal Detect
function. Both the Data and
Signal Detect outputs are
differential. Also, both Data and
Signal Detect outputs are PECL
compatible, ECL referenced
(shifted) to a +5 V power supply.
Package
The overall package concept for
the HP transceiver consists of the
following basic elements: two
optical subassemblies, an
electrical subassembly, and the
housing with full compliance to
the FDDI PMD standard. A block
diagram is illustrated in Figure 1.
The package outline drawings
and pin-outs are shown in Figures
2 and 3. These are compliant with
the industry standard 2x11 and
1x13 pin configurations.
The optical subassemblies utilize
a high-volume assembly process
together with low-cost lens
elements which result in a cost-
effective building block.
The electrical subassemblies
consist of a high-volume, multi-
layer printed circuit board on
which the IC chips and various
surface-mounted passive circuit
elements are attached.
Each transceiver package
includes internal shields for the
electrical and optical subassem-
blies to ensure low EMI emissions
and high immunity to external
EMI fields.
The outer housings including the
MIC receptacles are molded of
filled non-conductive plastic to
provide mechanical strength and
electrical isolation. The solder
posts of each package design are
isolated from the circuit design of
the transceiver and do not require
connection to a ground plane on
the circuit board.
Each transceiver is attached to its
printed circuit boards with the
2x11 or 1x13 signal pins and the
solder posts which exit the
bottom of the housing. The solder
posts provide the primary
mechanical strength to withstand
the loads imposed on the
transceiver when mating with
MIC-connectored fiber cables.

Hewlett-Packard LED technology
has produced 1300 nm LED
devices with lower aging charac-
teristics than normally associated
with these technologies in the
industry. The industry convention
is 1.5 dB aging for 1300 nm
LEDs, however HP 1300 nm
LEDs will experience less than 1
dB of aging over normal commer-
cial equipment mission life
periods. Contact your Hewlett-
Packard sales representative for
additional details.
Figure 4 was generated with a
Hewlett-Packard fiber-optic link
model containing the current
industry conventions for fiber
cable specifications and the FDDI
PMD optical parameters. These
parameters are reflected in the
guaranteed performance of the
transceiver specifications in this
data sheet. This same model has
been used extensively in the ANSI
and IEEE committees, including
the ANSI X3T9.5 committee, to
establish the optical performance
requirements for various fiber-
optic interface standards. The
cable parameters used come from
the ISO/IEC JTC1/SC 25/WG3
Generic Cabling for Customer
Premises per DIS 11801
document and the EIA/TIA-568-A
Commercial Building Telecom-
munications Cabling Standard per
SP-2840.
Transceiver Signaling
Operating Rate Range and
BER Performance
For purposes of definition, the
symbol rate (Baud), also called
signaling rate, is the reciprocal of
the symbol time. Data rate (bits/
sec) is the symbol rate divided by
the encoding factor used to
encode the data (symbols/bit).
When used in FDDI 100 Mbps
applications, the performance of
the 1300 nm transceivers is
guaranteed over the signaling
rate of 10 MBd to 125 MBd to the
full conditions listed in the
individual product specification
tables.
The transceivers may be used for
other applications at signaling
rates outside of the 10 MBd to
125 MBd range with some
penalty in the link optical power
budget primarily caused by a
reduction of receiver sensitivity.
Figure 5 gives an indication of
the typical performance of these
1300 nm products at different
rates.
These transceivers can also be
used for applications which
require different bit error rate
(BER) performance. Figure 6
illustrates the typical trade-off
between link BER and the
receivers input optical power
level.

You can contact them through
your Hewlett-Packard sales
representative.
The following information is
provided to answer some of the
most common questions about
the use of these parts.
Transceiver Optical Power
Budget versus Link Length
The Optical Power Budget (OPB)
is the available optical power for
a fiber-optic link to accommodate
fiber cable losses plus losses due
to in-line connectors, splices,
optical switches, and to provide
margin for link aging and
unplanned losses due to cable
plant reconfiguration or repair.
Figure 4 illustrates the predicted
OPB associated with the trans-
ceivers specified in this data
sheet at the Beginning of Life
(BOL). This curve represents the
attenuation and chromatic plus
modal dispersion losses
associated with the 62.5/125 µm
and 50/125 µm fiber cables only.
The area under the curve
represents the remaining OPB at
any link length, which is available
for overcoming non-fiber cable
related losses.

E1 of Annex E. They represent
the worst-case jitter contribution
that the transceivers are allowed
to make to the overall system
jitter without violating the Annex
E allocation example. In practice,
the typical contribution of the HP
transceiver is well below the
maximum amount.
Recommended Handling
Precautions
It is advised that normal static
precautions be taken in the
handling and assembly of these
transceivers to prevent damage
which may be induced by
electrostatic discharge (ESD).
The HFBR-511X Series meets
MIL-STD-883C Method 3015.4
Class 2.
Care should be taken to avoid
shorting the receiver Data or
Signal Detect outputs directly to
ground without proper current-
limiting impedance.
Solder and Wash Process
Compatibility
Each transceiver is delivered with
a protective port plug inserted
into the MIC receptacle. This port
process plug protects the optical
subassembly during wave solder
and aqueous wash processing and
acts as a dust cover during
shipping. The port process plugs
have been tested up to and found
to withstand 110 psi and 190°F.
These transceivers are
compatible with either industry
standard wave- or hand-solder
processes.
Shipping Container
Each transceiver is packaged in a
shipping container designed to
protect it from mechanical and
ESD damage during shipment or
storage.
Board Layout–Decoupling
Circuit and Ground Planes
It is important to take care in the
layout of your circuit board to
achieve optimum performance
from these transceivers. Figure 7
provides a good example of
schematics for decoupling
circuits that work well with this
product. It is further recom-
mended that a contiguous ground
plane be provided in the circuit
board directly under the
transceiver to provide a low
inductance ground for signal
return current. This recommenda-
tion is in keeping with good high
frequency board layout practices.
Board Layout–Hole Pattern
The hole pattern shown in Figure
8 for the 2x11 package style
complies with the pin sizes
specified by the multisource
agreement. Hole patterns are also
provided for the Standard and
Narrow 1x13 package styles.
These drawings can be used as a
guide in the mechanical layout of
your circuit board.
Board Layout–Art Work
The Applications Engineering
group has developed Gerber file
artwork for various fiber optic
transceiver layouts. Contact your
local Hewlett-Packard sales
representative for details.
Regulatory Compliance
These transceiver products are
intended to enable commercial
system designers to develop
equipment that complies with the
various international regulations
governing certification of Infor-
mation Technology Equipment.
See Table 1 for details. Additional
information is available from your
Hewlett-Packard sales
representative.

Transceiver Jitter
Performance
The Hewlett-Packard 1300 nm
transceivers are designed to
operate per the system jitter
allocations stated in Table E1 of
Annex E of the FDDI PMD
standard.
The HP 1300 nm transmitters will
tolerate the worst-case input
electrical jitter allowed in the
table without violating the worst-
case output optical jitter
requirement of Sections 8.1
Active Output Interface of the
FDDI PMD standard.
The HP 1300 nm receivers will
tolerate the worst-case input
optical jitter allowed in Section
8.2 Active Input Interface of the
FDDI PMD standard without
violating the worst-case output
electrical jitter allowed in the

Electrostatic Discharge
There are two design cases in
which immunity to ESD damage
is important.
The first is during handling of the
transceiver prior to mounting it
on the circuit board. It is
important to use normal ESD
handling precautions for ESD-
sensitive devices. These precau-
tions include using grounded
wrist straps, work benches, and
floor mats in ESD-controlled
areas.
The second case to consider is
static discharges to the exterior
of the equipment chassis con-
taining the transceiver parts. To
the extent that the MIC connector
is exposed to the outside of the
equipment chassis, it may be
subject to whatever ESD system
level test criteria that the
equipment is intended to meet.
Electromagnetic Interference
(EMI)
Most equipment designs utilizing
these high speed transceivers
from Hewlett-Packard will be
required to meet the require-
ments of FCC in the United
States, CENELEC EN55022
(CISPR 22) in Europe and VCCI
in Japan. Hence, the HFBR-511X
Series of fiber optic transceivers
meet the regulatory requirements
listed in Table 1.
Immunity
Equipment utilizing these
transceivers will be subject to
radio-frequency electromagnetic
fields in some environments.

Notes:
1. This is the maximum voltage that can
be applied across the Differential
Transmitter Data Inputs to prevent
damage to the input ESD protection
circuit.
2. The outputs are terminated with 50
connected to VCC -2V.
3. The specified signaling rate of
10 MBd to 125 MBd guarantees
operation of the transmitter and
receiver link to the full conditions
listed in the FDDI Physical Layer
Medium Dependent standard.
Specifically, the link bit error ratio
will be equal to or better than
2.5 x 10-10 for any valid FDDI
pattern. The transmitter section of
the link is capable of dc to 125 MBd.
The receiver is internally ac-coupled
which limits the lower signaling rate
to 10 MBd. For purposes of
definition, the symbol rate (Baud),
also called signaling rate, fs, is the
reciprocal of the shortest symbol
time. Data rate (bits/sec) is the
symbol rate divided by the encoding
factor used to encode the data
(symbols/bit).
4. The power supply current needed to
operate the transmitter is provided to
differential ECL circuitry. This
circuitry maintains a nearly constant
current flow from the power supply.
Constant current operation helps to
prevent unwanted electrical noise
from being generated and conducted
or emitted to neighboring circuitry.
5. This value is measured with an output
load RL = 10 k.
6. This value is measured with the out-
puts terminated into 50 connected
to VCC - 2 V and an Input Optical
Power level of -14 dBm average.
7. The power dissipation value is the
power dissipated in the receiver
itself. Power dissipation is calculated
as the sum of the products of supply
voltage and currents, minus the sum
of the products of the output voltages
and currents.
8. This value is measured with respect to
VCC with the output terminated into
50 connected to V
CC -2V.
9. The output rise and fall times are
measured between 20% and 80%
levels with the output connected to
VCC - 2 V through 50 .
10. Duty Cycle Distortion contributed by
the receiver is measured at the 50%
threshold using an IDLE Line State,
125 MBd (62.5 MHz square-wave),
input signal. The input optical power
level is -20 dBm average. See
Application Information - Transmitter
Jitter Section for further information.
11. Data Dependent Jitter contributed by
the receiver is specified with the
FDDI DDJ test pattern described in
the FDDI PMD Annex A.5. The input
optical power level is -20 dBm
average. See Application Information
- Transmitter Jitter Section for
further information.
12. Random Jitter contributed by the
receiver is specified with an IDLE
Line State, 125 Mbd (62.5 MHz
square-wave), input signal. The input
optical power level is at maximum
“PIN Min. (W).” See Application
Information - Transmitter Jitter
Section for further information.
13. These optical power values are
measured with the following
conditions:
The Beginning of Life (BOL) to the
End of Life (EOL) optical power
degradation is typically 1.5 dB per
the industry convention for long
wavelength LEDs. The actual
degradation observed in Hewlett-
Packard’s 1300 nm LED products
is < 1 dB, as specified in this data
sheet.
Over the specified operation voltage
and temperature ranges.
With HALT Line State, (12.5 MHz
square-wave), input signal.
At the end of one meter of noted
optical fiber with cladding modes
removed.
The average power value can be
converted to a peak power value by
adding 3 dB. Higher output optical
power transmitters are available on
special request.
14. The Extinction Ratio is a measure of
the modulation depth of the optical
signal. The data “0” output optical
power is compared to the data “1”
peak output optical power and
expressed as a percentage. With the
transmitter driven by a HALT Line
State (12.5 MHz square-wave) signal,
the average optical power is
measured. The data “1” peak power is
then calculated by adding 3 dB to the
measured average optical power. The
data “0” output optical power is
found by measuring the optical power
when the transmitter is driven by a
logic “0” input. The extinction ratio is
the ratio of the optical power at the
“0” level compared to the optical
power at the “1” level expressed as a
percentage or in decibels.
15. The transmitter provides compliance
with the need for Transmit_Disable
commands from the FDDI SMT layer
by providing an Output Optical
Power level of < -45 dBm average in
response to a logic “0” input. This
specification applies to either
62.5/125 µm or 50/125 µm fiber
cables.
16. This parameter complies with the
FDDI PMD requirements for the
tradeoffs between center wavelength,
spectral width, and rise/fall times
shown in Figure 9.
17. This parameter complies with the
optical pulse envelope from the FDDI
PMD shown in Figure 10. The optical
rise and fall times are measured from
10% to 90% when the transmitter is
driven by the FDDI HALT Line State
(12.5 MHz square-wave) input signal.
18. Duty Cycle Distortion contributed by
the transmitter is measured at a 50%
threshold using an IDLE Line State,
125 MBd (62.5 MHz square-wave),
input signal. See Application Informa-
tion – Transceiver Jitter Performance
Section of this data sheet for further
details.
19. Data Dependent Jitter contributed by
the transmitter is specified with the
FDDI test pattern described in FDDI
PMD Annex A.5. See Application
Information – Transceiver Jitter
Performance Section of this data
sheet for further details.
20. Random Jitter contributed by the
transmitter is specified with an IDLE
Line State, 1256 MBd (62.5 MHz
square-wave), input signal. See
Application Information – Trans-
ceiver Jitter Performance Section of
this data sheet for further details.
21. This specification is intended to indi-
cate the performance of the receiver
section of the transceiver when Input
Optical Power signal characteristics
are present per the following
definitions. The Input Optical Power
dynamic range from the minimum
level (with a window time-width) to
the maximum level is the range over
which the receiver is guaranteed to
provide output data with a Bit Error
Ratio (BER) better than or equal to
2.5 x 10-10.
• At the Beginning of Life (BOL).
• Over the specified operation
temperature and voltage ranges.
106
• Input symbol pattern is the FDDI
test pattern defined in FDDI PMD
Annex A.5 with 4B/5B NRZI
encoded data that contains a duty
cycle base-line wander effect of
50 kHz. This sequence causes a
near worst case condition for inter-
symbol interference.
• Receiver data window time-width is
2.13 ns or greater and centered at
mid-symbol. This worst case
window time-width is the minimum
allowed eye-opening presented to
the FDDI PHY PM_Data indication
input (PHY input) per the example
in FDDI PMD Annex E. This
minimum window time-width of
2.13 ns is based upon the worst
case FDDI PMD Active Input
Interface optical conditions for
peak-to-peak DCD (1.0 ns), DDJ
(1.2 ns) and RJ (0.76 ns)
presented to the receiver.
To test a receiver with the worst case
FDDI PMD Active Input jitter condi-
tion requires exacting control over
DCD, DDJ and RJ jitter components
that is difficult to implement with
production test equipment. The
receiver can be equivalently tested to
the worst case FDDI PMD input jitter
conditions and meet the minimum
output data window time-width of
2.13 ns. This is accomplished by
using a nearly ideal input optical
signal (no DCD, insignificant DDJ
and RJ) and measuring for a wider
window time-width of 4.6 ns. This is
possible due to the cumulative effect
of jitter components through their
superposition (DCD and DDJ are
directly additive and RJ components
are rms additive). Specifically, when
a nearly ideal input optical test signal
is used and the maximum receiver
peak-to-peak jitter contributions of
DCD (0.4 ns), DDJ (1.0 ns), and RJ
(2.14 ns) exist, the minimum window
time-width becomes 8.0 ns -0.4 ns -
1.0 ns - 2.14 ns = 4.46 ns, or
conservatively 4.6 ns. This wider
window time-width of 4.6 ns
guarantees the FDDI PMD Annex E
minimum window time-width of
2.13 ns under worst case input jitter
conditions to the Hewlett-Packard
receiver.
• Transmitter operating with an IDLE
Line State pattern, 125 MBd
(62.5 MHz square-wave), input
signal to simulate any cross-talk
present between the transmitter
and receiver sections of the
transmitter.
22. All conditions of Note 21 apply
except that the measurement is made
at the center of the symbol with no
window time-width.
23. This value is measured during the
transition from low to high levels of
input optical power.
24. The Signal Detect output shall be
asserted within 100 µs after a step
increase of the Input Optical Power.
The step will be from a low Input
Optical Power, -45 dBm, into the
range between greater than PA, and
-14 dBm. The BER of the receiver
output will be 10-2 or better during
the time, LS_Max (15 µs) after Signal
Detect has been asserted. See Figure
12 for more information.
25. This value is measured during the
transition from high to low levels of
input optical power. The maximum
value will occur when the input
optical power is either -45 dBm
average or when the input optical
power yields a BER of 10-2 or better,
whichever power is higher.
26. Signal detect output shall be deasserted
within 350 µs after a step decrease in
the Input Optical Power from a
level which is the lower of: -31 dBm
or PD + 4 dB (PD is the power level at
which signal detect was deasserted),
to a power level of -45 dBm or less.
This step decrease will have occurred
in less than 8 ns. The receiver output
will have a BER of 10-2 or better for a
period of 12 µs or until signal detect
is deasserted. The input data stream
is the Quiet Line State. Also, signal
detect will be deasserted within a
maximum of 350 µs after the BER of
the receiver output degrades above
10-2 for an input optical data stream
that decays with a negative ramp
function instead of a step function.
See Figure 12 for more information.
