Modulator (Figure 3-4)
The output stages OUT+ and OUT- are designed to drive 25Ω output loads over a wide range of currents and cir-
cuit architectures. The VCSEL may be a common anode or common cathode device. The output can be AC, DC, or
Differentially coupled depending on the supply voltage and laser configuration.
In a common anode configuration with a VCSEL (Figure 4-1), OUT+ should be connected through a capacitor to
the VCSEL. A pull-up resistor should be added in parallel to the VCSEL from SVCC to the OUT+ output. The
dynamic impedance of the parallel combination of the VCSEL and pull-up resistor should be roughly 25 ohms. A 24
ohm pull-up resistor should also be added from SVCC to OUT- so the currents and voltage swings in the two out-
puts are balanced.
In a common anode configuration with a Fabry-Perot laser (Figure 4-4), OUT+ may be AC, DC, or Differentially
coupled to the laser cathode. A resistor should be added in series with the laser such that the dynamic impedance
of the series combination of the laser and resistor should be roughly 25 ohms. A 24 ohm pull-up resistor to SV_CC is
needed on the OUT- output.
For common cathode operation with a VCSEL (Figure 4-3), internal 50 ohm terminations are switched in between
the OUT+ and OUT- outputs and V_CC3. VCSELs with impedances from 25-75Ω can be simply AC coupled to the
OUT- output with no additional load matching resistors. In this case OUT+ should be AC coupled to ground through
50Ω.
