Functional Description
Receiver Section
Design
The receiver section for the AFCT-5944xxZ contains an
InGaAs/InP photo detector and a preamplifier mounted
in an optical subassembly. This optical subassembly is
coupled to a postamp/decision circuit on a circuit board.
The design of the optical assembly is such that it provides better than 27 dB Optical Return Loss (ORL).
The postamplifier is ac coupled to the preamplifier as illustrated in Figure 1. The coupling capacitors are large
enough to pass the SONET/SDH test pattern at 155 Mb/s,
622 Mb/s and 2488 Mb/s without significant distortion or
performance penalty. For multirate applications the sensitivity will meet the maximum SONET specification for
OC48 across all datarates (-19 dBm), also for DC balanced
codes, e.g. 8B/10B. For codes which have a significantly
lower frequency content, jitter and pulse distortion
could be degraded.
The receiver outputs are squelched at Signal Detect
deasserts. That is, when the light input decreases to typical -27 dBm or less, the Signal Detect deasserts i.e. the
SD Output goes to a PECL low state. This forces the DATA
OUT and DATA OUT Bar to go PECL levels high and low
respectively.
designed to bandlimit the preamp output noise and thus
improve the receiver sensitivity.
These components will reduce the sensitivity of the receiver as the signal bit rate is increased above 2.7 Gb/s.
As an optional feature the device also incorporates a
photodetector bias circuit. The circuit works by providing
a mirrored output of the bias current within the photodiode. This output must be connected to VCC and can be
monitored by connecting through a series resistor (see
Application Section).
Noise Immunity
The receiver includes internal circuit components to filter
power supply noise. However under some conditions of
EMI and power supply noise, external power supply filtering may be necessary (see Application Section).
The Signal Detect Circuit
The signal detect circuit works by sensing the peak level
of the received signal and comparing this level to a reference. The SD output is low voltage TTL.
Figure 1 also shows a filter function which limits the
bandwidth of the preamp output signal. The filter is

and has been designed to be compliant with IEC 825 eye
safety requirements under any single fault condition and
CDRH under normal operating conditions. The optical
output is controlled by a custom IC that detects the laser output via the monitor photodiode. This IC provides
both dc and ac current drive to the laser to ensure correct
modulation, eye diagram and extinction ratio over temperature, supply voltage and operating life.
The transmitters also include monitor circuitry for both

Package
The overall package concept for the device consists of
the following basic elements; two optical subassemblies,
a electrical subassembly and the housing as illustrated in
the block diagram in Figure 3.
The package outline drawing and pin out are shown in
Figures 4 and 5. The details of this package outline and
pin out are compliant with the multisource definition of
the 2 x 10 DIP.
In combination with the metalized nose segment of the
package a metallic nose clip provides connection to
chassis ground for both EMI and thermal dissipation.
The electrical subassembly consists of high volume multilayer printed circuit boards on which the IC and various
surface-mounted passive circuit elements are attached.
RX SUPPLY
The receiver electrical subassembly includes an internal
shield for the electrical and optical subassembly to ensure high immunity to external EMI fields.
The optical subassemblies are attached to the electrical
subassembly. These two units are then fitted within the
outer housing of the transceiver. The housing is then encased with a metal EMI protective shield.
The electrical subassembly carries the signal pins that
exit from the bottom of the transceiver. The solder
posts are designed to provide the mechanical strength
required to withstand the loads imposed on the transceiver by mating with the LC connectored fiber cables.
Although they are not connected electrically to the
transceiver, it is recommended to connect them to chassis ground.

Application Information
Optical Power Budget and Link Penalties
The Applications Engineering Group at Avago Technologies is available to assist you with technical understanding and design trade-offs associated with these
transceivers. You can contact them through your Avago
Technologies sales representative.
The worst-case Optical Power Budget (OPB) in dB for a
fiber-optic link is determined by the difference between
the minimum transmitter output optical power (dBm avg)
and the lowest receiver sensitivity (dBm avg). This OPB
provides the necessary optical signal range to establish a
working fiber-optic link. The OPB is allocated for the fiberoptic cable length and the corresponding link penalties.
For proper link performance, all penalties that affect the
link performance must be accounted for within the link
optical power budget.
The following information is provided to answer some of
the most common questions about the use of the parts.

Data Line Interconnections
Avago Technologies’ AFCT-5944xxZ fiber-optic transceivers are designed to couple to +3.3 V PECL signals. The
transmitter driver circuit regulates the output optical
power. The regulated light output will maintain a constant output optical power provided the data pattern is
balanced in duty cycle. If the data duty cycle has long,
continuous state times (low or high data duty cycle),
then the output optical power will gradually change its
average output optical power level to its preset value.
The AFCT-5944xxZ has a transmit disable function which
is a single-ended +3.3 V TTL input which is dc-coupled
to pin 13. In addition the devices offer the designer the
option of monitoring the laser diode bias current and the
laser diode optical power.
The receiver section is internally ac-coupled between
the preamplifier and the post-amplifier stages. The Data
and Data-bar outputs of the post-amplifier are internally
biased and ac-coupled to their respective output pins
(pins 9, 10).

Signal Detect is a single-ended, +3.3 V TTL compatible
output signal that is dc-coupled to pin 8 of the module.
Signal Detect should not be ac-coupled externally to the
follow-on circuits because of its infrequent state changes.
The designer also has the option of monitoring the PIN
photo detector bias current. Figure 6 shows a resistor
network, which could be used to do this. Note that the
photo detector bias current pin must be connected to VCC.
Avago Technologies also recommends that a decoupling
capacitor is used on this pin.
Caution should be taken to account for the proper intercon-nection between the supporting Physical Layer integrated circuits and these transceivers. Figure 6 illustrates
a recommended interface circuit for interconnecting to a
+3.3 V dc PECL fiber-optic transceiver.

Eye Safety Circuit
It is important to exercise care in circuit board layout to
achieve optimum performance from these transceivers.
Figure 6 shows the power supply circuit which complies
with the small form factor multisource agreement. It is
further recommended that a continuous ground plane
be provided in the circuit board directly under the transceiver to provide a low inductance ground for signal
return current. This recommendation is in keeping with
good high frequency board layout practices.
For an optical transmitter device to be eye-safe in the
event of a single fault failure, the transmit-ter must either
maintain eye-safe operation or be disabled.
Package footprint and front panel considerations
The Avago Technologies transceivers comply with the
circuit board “Common Transceiver Footprint” hole
pattern defined in the current multisource agreement
which defined the 2 x 10 package style. This drawing is
reproduced in Figure 7 with the addition of ANSI Y14.5M
compliant dimensioning to be used as a guide in the mechanical layout of your circuit board. Figure 8 shows the
front panel dimensions associated with such a layout.

The AFCT-5944xxZ is intrinsically eye safe and does not
require shut down circuitry.
Signal Detect
The Signal Detect circuit provides a deasserted output
signal when the optical link is broken (or when the
remote transmitter is OFF). The Signal Detect threshold is set to transition from a high to low state between the minimum receiver input optical power and
-35 dBm avg. input optical power indicating a definite
optical fault (e.g. unplugged connector for the receiver or
transmitter, broken fiber, or failed far-end transmitter or
data source). The Signal Detect does not detect receiver
data error or error-rate. Data errors can be determined by
signal processing offered by upstream PHY ICs.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Recommended Solder fluxes
One of a circuit board designer’s foremost concerns is
the control of electromagnetic emissions from electronic
equipment. Success in controlling generated Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) enables the designer to pass
a governmental agency’s EMI regulatory standard and
more importantly, it reduces the possibility of interference to neighboring equipment. Avago Technologies has
designed the AFCT-5944xxZ to provide good EMI performance. The EMI performance of a chassis is dependent
on physical design and features which help improve
EMI suppression. Avago Technologies encourages using
standard RF suppression practices and avoiding poorly
EMI-sealed enclosures.
Solder fluxes used with the AFCT-5944xxZ should be water-soluble, organic fluxes. Recommended solder fluxes
include Lonco 3355-11 from London Chemical West, Inc.
of Burbank, CA, and 100 Flux from Alpha-Metals of Jersey
City, NJ.
Avago Technologies’ OC-48 LC transceivers (AFCT5944xxZ) have nose shields which provide a convenient
chassis connection to the nose of the transceiver. This
nose shield and the underlying metalization (except ‘G’
options) improve system EMI performance by effectively
closing off the LC aperture. The recommended transceiver position, PCB layout and panel opening for both
devices are the same, making them mechanically drop-in
compatible. Figure 8 shows the recommended positioning of the transceivers with respect to the PCB and faceplate.
Recommended Solder and Wash Process
The AFCT-5944xxZ are compatible with industry-standard wave solder processes.
Process plug
This transceiver is supplied with a process plug for protection of the optical port within the LC connector receptacle. This process plug prevents contamination during
wave solder and aqueous rinse as well as during handling, shipping and storage. It is made of a high-temperature, molded sealing material that can withstand +85°C
and a rinse pressure of 110 lbs per square inch.
10
Recommended Cleaning/Degreasing Chemicals
Alcohols: methyl, isopropyl, isobutyl.
Aliphatics: hexane, heptane
Other: naphtha.
D o not use p a r t i a l l y h a l o g e n a t e d hyd ro c a r bons such as 1,1.1 trichloroethane, ketones such
as MEK, acetone, chloroform, ethyl acetate, methylene dichloride, phenol, methylene chloride, or
N-methylpyrolldone. Also, Avago Technologies does not
recommend the use of cleaners that use halogenated
hydrocarbons because of their potential environmental
harm.
LC SFF Cleaning Recommendations
In the event of contamination of the optical ports, the
recommended cleaning process is the use of forced nitrogen. If contamination is thought to have remained, the
optical ports can be cleaned using a NTT international
Cletop stick type (diam. 1.25mm) and HFE7100 cleaning
fluid.
Regulatory Compliance
Immunity
The Regulatory Compliance for transceiver performance
is shown in Table 1. The overall equipment design will
determine the certification level. The transceiver performance is offered as a figure of merit to assist the designer
in considering their use in equipment designs.
Transceivers will be subject to radio-frequency electromagnetic fields following the IEC 61000-4-3 test method.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
The device has been tested to comply with MIL-STD883E (Method 3015). It is important to use normal ESD
handling precautions for ESD sensitive devices. These
precautions include using grounded wrist straps, work
benches, and floor mats in ESD controlled areas.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Most equipment designs utilizing these high-speed
transceivers from Avago Technologies will be required
to meet FCC regulations in the United States, CENELEC
EN55022 (CISPR 22) in Europe and VCCI in Japan. Refer to
EMI section (page 9) for more details.
Eye Safety
These laser-based transceivers are classified as AEL Class
I (U.S. 21 CFR(J) and AEL Class 1 per EN 60825-1 (+A11).
They are eye safe when used within the data sheet limits
per CDRH. They are also eye safe under normal operating
conditions and under all reasonably foreseeable single
fault conditions per EN60825-1. Avago Technologies
has tested the transceiver design for compliance with
the requirements listed below under normal operating
conditions and under single fault conditions where applicable. TUV Rheinland has granted certification to these
transceivers for laser eye safety and use in EN 60950 and
EN 60825-2 applications. Their performance enables the
transceivers to be used without concern for eye safety up
to 3.6 V transmitter VCC.

Design Support Materials
There are no user serviceable parts nor any maintenance
required for the AFCT-5944xxZ. All adjustments are made
at the factory before shipment to our customers. Tampering with or modifying the performance of the parts will
result in voided product warranty. It may also result in improper operation of the circuitry, and possible overstress
of the laser source. Device degradation or product failure
may result.
Avago Technologies has created a number of reference
designs with major PHY IC vendors in order to demonstate full functionality and interoperability. Such design
information and results can be made available to the
designer as a technical aid. Please contact your Avago
Technologies representative for further information if
required.
Connection of the devices to a non-approved optical
source, operating above the recommended absolute
maximum conditions or operating the AFCT-5944xxZ
in a manner inconsistent with its design and function
may result in hazardous radiation exposure and may be
considered an act of modifying or manufacturing a laser
product. The person(s) performing such an act is required
by law to recertify and reidentify the laser product under
the provisions of U.S. 21 CFR (Subchapter J).
