Enables 1W SFP+ Sonet OC-192 Applications
The MAX3955 is an 11.3Gbps, highly-integrated, low-power transceiver with dual CDRs, and digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM) designed for next-generation SONET transmission systems. The receiver incorporates a limiting amplifier with loss-of-signal (LOS) circuit. The limiting amplifier features an independent 9.95Gbps to 11.32Gbps CDR. The transmitter incorporates Maxim’s proprietary DC-coupled laser driver interface, an independent 9.95Gbps to 11.32Gbps CDR, and closed-loop control of average laser power. The MAX3955 supports differential AC-coupled signaling with integrated 50Ω terminations at Rx input, Rx output, and Tx input. The Tx output is a DC-coupled 25Ω laser diode interface with dedicated pins for the laser anode (TOUTA) and the laser cathode (TOUTC). An integrated 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is utilized to provide digital monitors of internal/external temperature, VCC, and received signal strength indication (RSSI). The MAX3955’s analog monitors and the use of a 2-wire or 3-wire slave interface enables configuration through either a digital-only microcontroller (µC) or through the DS1978 SFP+ controller (future product). The MAX3955 operates from single +3.3V supply and over a -40°C to +95°C temperature range and is available in a standard 5mm x 5mm, 32-pin TQFN-EP package.
