19-3467; Rev 0; 10/04 1Gbps to 4.25Gbps Multirate Transimpedance Amplifier with Photocurrent Monitor General Description The MAX3793 transimpedance amplifier provides a compact low-power solution for applications from 1Gbps up to 4.25Gbps. The MAX3793 features 195nA input-referred noise, 3.5k transimpedance gain, 2.9GHz bandwidth (CIN = 0.3pF) and 2.8mAP-P input overload. Operating from a +3.3V supply, the MAX3793 consumes only 106mW. An integrated filter resistor provides positive bias for the photodiode. These features, combined with a small die size, allow easy assembly into a TO-46 header with a photodiode. The MAX3793 also includes an average photocurrent monitor. The MAX3793 has a typical optical sensitivity of -20dBm (0.55A/W) at 4.25Gbps. Typical optical overload is at 4dBm.

MAX3793 Limited Output Figure 2. DC-Cancellation Effect on Input Detailed Description The MAX3793 transimpedance amplifier is designed for 1Gbps to 4.25Gbps fiber optic applications. The MAX3793 is comprised of a transimpedance amplifier, a voltage amplifier, an output buffer, a DC-cancellation circuit, a photodiode biasing resistor, and a photocurrent monitor (see the Functional Diagram). The DC-cancellation circuit is internally compensated and does not require external capacitors. This circuit minimizes pulse-width distortion for data sequences that exhibit a 50% mark density. A mark density significantly different from 50% causes the MAX3793 to generate pulse-width distortion. Grounding the FILT pin disables the DC-cancellation circuit. For normal operation, the DC-cancellation circuit must be enabled. Transimpedance Amplifier The signal current at the input flows into the summing node of a high-gain amplifier. Shunt feedback through resistor RF converts this current into a voltage. Schottky diodes clamp the output signal for large input currents (Figure 1). Photocurrent Monitor The MAX3793 includes an average photocurrent monitor. The current sourced from MON to ground is proportionally equal to the average R FILT current (see the Typical Operating Characteristics). This RFILT is used to bias the photodiode, see Figure 7. RFILT is an internal 750 resistor between V CC and FILT. This resistor is to be used in conjunction with an external C FILT to bias the photodiode. The current through this resistor is monitored and creates the photocurrent monitor output. For test purposes, driving FILT below 0.5V disables the DC-cancellation circuit. Voltage Amplifier The voltage amplifier provides additional gain and converts the transimpedance amplifier single-ended output signal into a differential signal. Output Buffer The output buffer is designed to drive a 100 differential load between OUT+ and OUT-. For optimum supply noise rejection, the MAX3793 should be terminated with a matched load. The MAX3793 outputs do not drive a DC-coupled grounded load. The outputs should always be AC-coupled. Refer to Application Note HFAN-1.1: Choosing AC-Coupling Capacitors for a more detailed discussion on selecting capacitors. If a single-ended output is required, both the used and the unused outputs should be terminated in a similar manner. See Figure 6. Design Procedure Select Photodiode Noise performance and bandwidth are adversely affected by capacitance on the TIA input node. Select a low-capacitance photodiode to minimize the total input capacitance on this pin. The MAX3793 is optimized for 0.6pF of capacitance on the input. Select CFILT The filter resistor of the MAX3793, combined with an external capacitor, can be used to reduce noise (see the Typical Application Circuit). Current generated by supply noise voltage is divided between CFILT and CIN. Assuming the filter capacitor is much larger than the photodiode capacitance, the input noise current due to supply noise is: INOISE = (VNOISE x CIN) / (RFILT x CFILT) 7 DC-Cancellation Circuit The DC-cancellation circuit uses low-frequency feedback to remove the DC component of the input signal (Figure 2). This feature centers the input signal within the transimpedance amplifier's linear range, thereby reducing pulse-width distortion. _______________________________________________________________________________________ 1Gbps to 4.25Gbps Multirate Transimpedance Amplifier with Photocurrent Monitor MAX3793 If the amount of tolerable noise is known, the filter capacitor can be easily selected: CFILT = (VNOISE x CIN) / (RFILT x INOISE) For example, with maximum noise voltage = 100mVP-P, CIN = 0.6pF, RFILT = 750, and INOISE at 350nA, the filter capacitor is: CFILT = (100mV x 0.6pF) / (750 x 350nA) = 229pF RMON = 2.0V IMONMAX where, IMONMAX is the largest average input current observed. An ammeter can also be used to monitor the current out of the MON pin. Select RMON If photocurrent monitoring is desired, connect a resistor between MON and ground to monitor the average photocurrent. Select the largest RMON possible: Layout Considerations Figure 3 shows suggested layouts for 4-pin and 5-pin TO headers. Wire Bonding For high-current density and reliable operation, the MAX3793 uses gold metalization. For best results, use gold-wire ball-bonding techniques. Exercise caution if attempting wedge bonding. The die size is 30 mils x 50 mils (0.762mm x 1.27mm), and the die thickness is 15 mils (380m). Bond-pad size for the VCC, GND, OUT+, and OUT- pads is 94m x 94m. Bond-pad size for the FILT, IN, and MON pads is 79m x 79m; all bond-pad metal thickness is 1.2m. Refer to Maxim Application Note HFAN-08.0.1: Understanding Bonding Coordinates and Physical Die Size for additional information on bondpad coordinates.

Recommended MAX3793 Bonding Scheme 1Gbps to 4.25Gbps Multirate Transimpedance Amplifier with Photocurrent Monitor Applications Information Optical Power Relations Many of the MAX3793 specifications relate to the input signal amplitude. When working with optical receivers, the input is sometimes expressed in terms of average optical power and extinction ratio. Figure 5 and Table 1 show relations that are helpful for converting optical power to input signal when designing with the MAX3793. To obtain a system bit-error rate (BER) of 1E-12, the signal-to-noise ratio must always exceed 14:1. The input sensitivity, expressed in average power, can be estimated as: 14.1 x IN (re + 1) Sensitivity = 10 log x 1000 dBm 2 x x (re - 1)) MAX3793 where, is the photodiode responsivity in A/W, and IN is the RMS noise current in amps. Optical Sensitivity Calculation The input-referred RMS noise current (I N ) of the MAX3793 generally determines the receiver sensitivity. Input Optical Overload Overload is the largest input that the MAX3793 accepts while meeting DJ specifications. Optical overload can be estimated in terms of average power with the following equation: I Overload = 10log OL x 1000 dBm 2 x PI OPTICAL POWER PAVG Optical Linear Range The MAX3793 has high gain, which limits the output when the input signal exceeds 50AP-P. The MAX3793 operates in a linear range for inputs not exceeding: 50A x (re + 1) Linear Range = 10 log x 1000 dBm 2 x x (re - 1) PO TIME Figure 5. Optical Power Relations Table 1.
