DESCRIPTION
The Infineon Fibre Channel multimode transceiver – part of
Infineon Small Form Factor transceiver family – i s based on the
Physical Medium Depend (PMD) sublayer and baseband
medium, type 1000 Base-SX (short wavelength)
and Fibre Channel
FC-PI 100-M5-SN-I, 100-M6-SN-I
FC-PH2 100-M5-SN-I, FC-PH2 100-M6-SN-I.
The appropriate fiber optic cable is 62.5 µm or 50 µm multi-
mode fiber with LC™ connector.
Operating range over each optical fiber type
The Infine on Fibre Channel / Gigabit Ethernet multimode trans-
ceiver is a single unit comprised of a transmitter, a receiver, and
an LC™ receptacle.
This transceiver supports the LC™ connectorization concept.
It is compatible with RJ-45 style backpanels for high end
Data Com and Telecom applications while providing the advan-
tages of fiber optic technology.
The module is designed for low cost SAN, LAN, WAN, Fibre
Channel and Gigabit Ethernet applications. It can be used as the
network end device interface i n mainframes, workstations,
servers, and storage devices, and in a broad range of network
devices such as bridges, routers, hubs, and local and wide area
switches.
This transc eiver operates at 1.0 625 GBd / 1.25 GBd from a
single power supply (+3.3 V). The fu ll differential data inputs
and outputs are PECL and LVPECL compatible.
Functional Description of SFP Transceiver
This transceiver is designed to transmit serial data via
multimode cable.
Functional Diagram
The receiver component converts the optical serial data into
PECL compatible electrical data (RD+ and RD–). The LOS of
Signal ( LOS, active low) shows whether an optical signal is
present.
The tran sm itter converts PECL compatible electri cal serial data
(TD+ and TD–) into optical serial dat a. Data lines are differen-
tially 100 terminated.
The transm itter contains a laser driver circuit that drives the
modulation and bias current of the laser diode. The currents are
controlled by a power control circuit to guarantee constant out-
put power of the laser over temperature and aging. The power
control uses the output of the monitor PIN diode (mechanically
built into the l a ser coupling unit) as a controlling signal, to pre-
vent the laser power from exceeding the operating limits.
Single fault condition is ensured by means of an integrated
automatic shutdown circuit that disables the laser when it
detects laser fau lt to guarantee the laser Eye Safety.
The transceiver contains a supervisory circuit to control the
power supply. This circuit makes an internal reset signal when-
ever the supply voltage drop s below the reset threshold. It
keeps the re set signal active for at least 140 milliseconds after
the voltage has ri sen above the reset threshold. During this
time the laser is inactive.
A low signal on TxDis enables transmit ter . If TxDis is high or not
connected the transmitter is d isabled.
The information which kind of S FP module has been plugged
into an SFP port can be read through the MOD-DEF interface.
The information i s stored in an I2C-Eprom inside the SFP Trans-
ceiver.

APPLICATION NOTES
EMI-Recommendation
To av oid elec trom agn etic r adi ation ex ce eding the requ ire d lim its
please take note of the following recommendations.
When Gigabit switching components are found on a PCB (multi-
plexers, clock recoveries etc.) any opening of th e chas sis may
produce radiation also at chassis slots other than that of the
device itself . T hus ev ery mechanical opening or aperture should
be as small as pos sible.
On the board itself every data connection should be an imped-
ance matched line (e.g. strip line, coplanar strip line). Data,
Datanot should be routed symmetrically, vi as should be
avoided. A terminating resistor of 100 shou ld be plac ed at the
end of each matched line. An alternative termination can be
provided with a 50 resistor at each (D, Dn). In DC coupled
system s a t he v en in equi v a lent 5 0 resistance can be achiev ed
as follows: For 3.3 V: 125 to VCC and 82 to VEE, for 5 V:
82 to VCC an d 125 to VEE at Data and Datanot. Please con-
sider whether there is an intern al termination inside an IC or a
transceiver.
In certain cases signal GND is the most harmful source of radia-
tion. Connecting chassis GND and signal GND at the plate/
bezel/ chassis rear e.g. by means of a fiber optic transceiver
may result in a large amount of radiation. Even a capacitive cou-
pling between signal GND and chassis may be harmful if it is
too close to an opening or an aperture.
If a separation of signal GND and chassis GND is not possible,
it is strongly recommended to provide a proper contact
between signal GND and chassis GND at every loc ation where
possible. This concept is designed to avoid hotspots. Hotspots
are places of highest radiation which could be generated if only
a few connec tions between signal and chassis GND exist.
Compensation currents would concentrate at these connec-
tions, causing radiat ion.
By us e of Gi ga b it switc h in g component s in a d es ig n, the return
path of the RF curren t must also be considered. Thus a split
GND plane of Tx and Rx portion may result in severe EMI prob-
lems.
The cutout should be sized so that all contact springs make
good contact with the face plate.
For the SFP transceiver a connection of the SFP cage pins to
chassis GND is recomme nded. If no separate chassis GND is
available on the users PCB the pins should be connected to sig-
nal GND. In this case take care of the notes ab ove.
Please consider that the PCB may behave like a waveguide.
With an εr of 4, the wavelength of the harmonics inside the
PCB will be half of that in free space. In this scenario even the
smallest PCBs may have unexpected resonanc es.
The SFP transceiver can be assembled onto the host board
together with all cages and host bo ard connect ors complying
with the SFP multi source agreement.
