AD8015 / AD807
155 Mbps Fiber Optic Receiver ICs
HIGH-PERFORMANCE, LOW
POWER SOLUTION FOR FIBER
OPTIC RECEIVERS
As the demand for bandwidth continues to
grow, power and board space constraints
placed on the developers of electro-optical
interfaces intensify as well. Analog Devices
is focused on providing high-performance
yet cost-effective interface IC solutions to
address the needs of today’s optical
networking systems.
The AD8015 and AD807 set the standard for
155 Mbps receiver ICs by providing optimal
system performance at minimal power
consumption and board space.
The AD807 is a 155 Mbps clock and data
recovery IC with a fully integrated limiting
amplifier and no requirement for external
reference clocks. All SONET/SDH jitter
specifications are exceeded, including jitter
tolerance, jitter transfer, and jitter generation.
The AD8015 is a low power, transimpedance
amplifier with wide dynamic range and
superior noise performance.
Together, these products provide a highperformance, highly integrated, low power
solution specifically designed for fiber
optic receivers.
Analog has over 10 years of experience in
designing fiber optic components; put our
expertise to work for you.
Together, the AD8015 and
AD807 are the industry-
provenanswerfor155Mbps
fiber optic receivers needs.
