19-3297; Rev 1; 10/07 KIT ATION EVALU E L B AVAILA 155Mbps to 3.2Gbps, Low-Power SFP Limiting Amplifiers Features The MAX3747/MAX3747A/MAX3747B multirate limiting amplifiers function as data quantizers for OC-3 through OC-48 synchronous optical network (SONET), FibreChannel, and Gigabit Ethernet optical receivers. They are pin-for-pin compatible with the SY88993V from Micrel Semiconductor, Inc. The amplifiers accept a wide range of input voltages and provide constant-level, current-mode logic (CML) output voltages with controlled edge speeds. The MAX3747 output voltage level is 500mVP-P and the MAX3747A/MAX3747B output voltages are 800mVP-P. The MAX3747B has enhanced LOS operation under overload conditions. The MAX3747/MAX3747A/MAX3747B limiting amplifiers feature a programmable loss-of-signal detect (LOS) and an optional disable function (DISABLE) that can be combined to implement squelch.

The data outputs are held static when this pin is asserted high, transistor-to-transistor logic (TTL). The data outputs are enabled when this pin is held low. LOS functions remain active when outputs are disabled. For normal operation connect to GND. 2 IN+ DIN Noninverted Input Signal 3 IN- DIN Inverted Input Signal 4 VREF VREF Reference Voltage for LOS Threshold Setting Loss-of-Signal Level Set. A voltage on this pin created by a two-resistor divider sets the threshold level. Connect one resistor from this pin to VCC and another from this pin to VREF (see Figure 5). 5 TH LOSLVL 6 GND GND Ground Loss of Signal. Open collector for the MAX3747 and MAX3747A; internal 100k pullup to VCC for the MAX3747B. LOS is high when the level of the input signal drops below the preset threshold set by the TH input. LOS is deasserted low when the signal level is above the threshold. 7 LOS LOS 8 OUT- DOUT 9 OUT+ DOUT 10 VCC VCC Inverted Data Output, CML Noninverted Data Output, CML Positive Power Supply Detailed Description The limiting amplifiers consist of a multistage amplifier, offset-correction circuitry, an output buffer, and loss-ofsignal detect circuitry (see the Functional Diagram). VCC MAX3747 MAX3747A MAX3747B Input Stage The input stage is shown in Figure 3. It provides 50 termination to VREF for each input signal, IN+ and IN-. The MAX3747/MAX3747A/MAX3747B should be AC-coupled. Multistage Amplifier ESD STRUCTURES The high-bandwidth multistage amplifier provides approximately 57dB of gain for the MAX3747 and 61dB of gain for the MAX3747A/MAX3747B. Offset Correction Loop The MAX3747/MAX3747A/MAX3747B are susceptible to DC offsets in the signal path because they have high gain. In communication systems using NRZ data with a 50% duty cycle, pulse-width distortion present in the signal or generated in the transimpedance amplifier appears as an input offset and is reduced by the offset correction loop. The offset correction loop sets a low-frequency cutoff of 3.2kHz. 50 50 VREF Figure 3.

The output current is approximately 10mA for the MAX3747 and 16mA for the MAX3747A/MAX3747B. Connecting the DISABLE pin to VCC disables the output. If the LOS pin is connected to the DISABLE pin, the outputs OUT+ and OUT- are at a static voltage (squelch) whenever the input signal level drops below the LOS threshold. The output buffer can be AC- or DC-coupled to the load (Figure 4). The MAX3747 output is 500mVP-P and the MAX3747A/ MAX3747B output is 800mVP-P.

The combination of R TH1 and R TH2 should be greater than or equal to 5k, see the Assert/Deassert vs. VTH graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics. Select the Coupling Capacitor When AC-coupling is desired, coupling capacitors CIN and COUT should be selected to minimize the receiver's deterministic jitter. Jitter is decreased as the input low-frequency cutoff (fIN) is decreased: fIN = 1 / [2(50)(CIN)] For all applications, the recommended value for CIN and COUT is 0.1F, which provides fIN equal to 32kHz.

The voltage on the TH pin is set by two resistors, one connecting from the TH pin to VCC and the other connecting from TH to VREF (Figure 5). An RMS power detector compares the input signal amplitude with this threshold and feeds the signal-detect information to the LOS output, which is open collector. To prevent LOS chatter in the region of the programmed threshold, approximately 2dB of hysteresis is built into the LOS assert/deassert function. Once asserted, LOS is not deasserted until the input amplitude rises to the required level. Figure 6 shows the LOS output circuit.
