Description

The LG1625AXF is a gallium-arsenide (GaAs) laser diode driver to be used with direct modulated laser diodes in high-speed nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ) trans­mission systems. The device is made in a high-per­formance 0.9 µm gate GaAs heterojunction FET technology that utilizes high-density MIM capacitors, airbridge interconnect, and NiCr film precision resis­tors.
The device contains three cascaded stages, oper­ates with a single –5.2 V power supply and accepts ECL level inputs. Voltages control the modulated out­put current and laser prebias current. The LG1625AXF is available in a 24-lead hermetic, gull­wing package.
A test fixture (TF1006A) with SMA connectors is available to allow quick evaluation of the LG1625AXF.

Absolute Maximum Ratings

Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent or latent damage to the device. These are absolute stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess of those given in the operational sections of this device specification. Exposure to absolute maximum rat­ings for extended periods can adversely affect device reliability.

Handling Precautions

Although protection circuitry has been designed into this device, proper precautions should be taken to avoid expo­sure to electrostatic discharge (ESD) during handling and mounting. Lucent employs a human-body model (HBM) and charged-device model (CDM) for ESD-susceptibility testing and protection design evaluation. ESD voltage thresholds are dependent on the circuit parameters used in the defined model. No industry-wide standard has been adopted for the CDM. However, a standard HBM (resistance = 1500 Ω, capacitance = 10 0 pF) is w i de ly us ed and, therefore, can be used for comparison purposes. The HBM ESD threshold presented here was obtained by using these circuit parameters.

Mounting and Connections

Certain precautions must be taken when using solder. For installation using a constant temperature solder, temper­atures of under 300 °C may be employed for periods of time up to 5 seconds, maximum. For installation with a sol­dering iron (battery operated or nonswitching only), the soldering tip temperature should not be greater than 300 °C and the soldering time for each lead must not exceed 5 seconds.
