LC25TCAJ34

Data Sheet 2.5 Gb/s Buried Het 4x100GHz Tunable Laser with extended reach option LC25T This laser module employs the Bookham gain coupled SLMQW buried heterostructure DFB laser chip, and has been designed specifically for use in Wavelength Division Multiplexed (WDM) 2.5 Gb/s long distance optical fibre trunk systems. The device is packaged in a hermetically sealed 14-pin butterfly package incorporating an isolator and monitor photodiode for control of the power of the laser over life and all operating conditions. The module is tunable by means of the internal thermo-electric cooler over four adjacent 100 GHz ITU WDM channels with a case temperature of 70°C, or over two adjacent 100 GHZ channels with a case temperature of 85°C The device is available with a number of power options and wavelength schemes, which are customizable to individual customer specification. Features: • 2.5 Gb/s Operation • Tunable over four separate channels at 100 GHz channel spacing • +/-95pm wavelength stability over life • Entire C band ITU wavelengths available (1528 to 1563 nm) • Narrow spectral line-width • Hermetically sealed 14-pin butterfly package with optical isolator • Internal TEC with precision NTC thermistor • Extended reach performance up to 360 km with low dispersion penalty • RoHS compliant Applications: • Cost effective metropolitan or long haul networks • Stock inventory / Spares reduction • Network protection • Low-speed routing / Networks reconfiguration 1 Data Sheet Parameters Parameter Threshold current (Ith) Slope efficiency 2 mW 3 mW 4 mW High Power [1] [2] 1.3 [3] [4] -20 dB 34 [5] 50 250 0.4 40 125 1200 100 ∆T = 64°C 8 to 50°C [6] -45 4.07 20.7 1000 2.4 0.09 +145 1527 0.04 0.06 0.08 0.143 Conditions Min Typ 10 Max 22 0.09 0.13 0.17 0.43 -10 1.8 1563 2 0.6 Unit mA mW/mA mW/mA mW/mA mW/mA dB V nm dB nm dB ps µA nA k mA V nm/°C pm RF input reflection coef (S11) Forward voltage Peak wavelength (λp) Dispersion penalty Time averaged spectral linewidth Side-mode suppression Optical rise/fall time Monitor photo current Monitor dark current Thermistor resistance Heatpump current Heatpump voltage Change of λ with laser temp. ∆T = 64°C Change of λ over life and operating conditions [1] The high power version provides 10 mW peak output power for 175 km applications and 7 mW peak ouput power for 360 km applications.

[4] Dispersion penalty is compliant to a link length of 175 km or 360 km using an extinction ratio of 10dB. Fibre dispersion characteristics are derived from the following equation: 4 0 3 D(λ ) = where So =0.092 ps/(nm2 km) and λ0 = 1302 nm.
