DESCRIPTION
■Up to 1.25Gb/s operation
■75mA peak drive current
■Separate modulation control
■Separate master reset for laser safety
■Differential inputs for data and clock
■75KΩ input pulldown resistor
■Single power supply
■Available in 16-pin SOIC package
The SY100EL1001 is a high speed current source for
driving a semiconductor laser diode in optical transmission
applications. The output current modulation is DC –
voltage controlled. The integrated circuit contains the
following functional blocks:
• Input Line Receiver
• D Flip-Flop
• Bias Control Circuitry
• Output Current Switch
A logic HIGH level at the data input results in the
modulation current flowing through the OUT pin on the
next rising edge of the clock. A logic HIGH level at the
master reset input will disable the modulation current.
The device incorporates complementary open collector
outputs with a capability of driving peak current of 75
mA.
The laser driver current is adjustable by selection of
RSET. The resistor REXT must be placed between /OUT
and VCC to dissipate the worst case power. RSER is
recommended to fix laser diode matching issues.
The SY100EL1001 utilizes the high performance
bipolar ASSET™ technology.

Pin Function
VCC, VCCO Most positive power supply pins separation helps
to isolate sensitive circuitry from noise
generating function. +5V for PECL operation
or ground for ECL operation.
VEE Most negative power supply input. Ground
for PECL operation or -5V for ECL operation.
VBB This pin provides a reference voltage for use
in single ended applications or when the
input signal is AC coupled into the device.
D,/D These differential ECL/PECL 100K
compatible inputs receive NRZ data.
CLK, /CLK These differential clock inputs
MR This ECL/PECL 100K compatible input resets
the Laser Driver Logic - modulation current
transitions to zero when asserted high.
OUT, /OUT Open collector outputs from the modulation
buffer drive these differential current outputs.
MC An external voltage sets the main value of
modulation current IO.
RSET An external resistor sets the source current
for modulation Imod.
NC These pins are not connected.
