SDH/SONET STM1/OC3 transimpedance amplifierTZA3033
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The TZA3033 is a transimpedance amplifier intended for
use in fibre optic links for signal recovery in STM1/OC3
applications. It amplifies the current generated by a photo
detector (PIN diode or avalanche photodiode) and
transforms it into a differential output voltage. The most
important characteristics of theTZA3033 are highreceiver
sensitivity and wide dynamic range.
Highreceiver sensitivity is achieved by minimizing noisein
the transimpedance amplifier. The signal current
generated by a PIN diode can vary between
0.25 µA to 1.6 mA (p-p). An AGC loop (see Fig.1) is
implemented to make it possible to handle such a wide
dynamic range. The AGC loop increases the dynamic
range of the receiver by reducing the feedback resistance
of the preamplifier.

CC
266 Ω266 Ω
The AGC loop hold capacitor is integrated on-chip, so an
external capacitor is not needed for AGC. The AGC
voltage can be monitored at pad 15 on the bare die
(TZA3033U).Pad 15isnotbondedin the packaged device
(TZA3033T). This pad can be left unconnected during
normal operation. It can also be used to force an external
AGC voltage. If pad 15 (AGC) is connected to VCC, the
internal AGC loop is disabled and the receiver gain is at a
maximum. The maximum input current is then
approximately 10 µA.
A differential amplifier converts the output of the
preamplifier to a differential voltage (see Fig.3).
The logic level symbol definitions are shown in Fig.4.

Rejection Ratio (PSSR), are especially influenced by how
the PIN diode is connected to the input and the layout
around the input pin. The total capacitance at the input pin
is critical to obtain the highest sensitivity. It should be kept
to a minimum by reducing the capacitor of the PIN diode
and the parasitics around the input pin. The PIN diode
should be placed very close to the IC to reduce the
parasitics. Because the capacitance of the PIN diode
depends on the reverse voltage across it, the reverse
voltage should be selected as high as possible.
The PIN diode can be connected to the input as shown in
Fig.5. In Fig.5 the PIN diode is connected between DREF
and IPhoto. Pin DREF provides an easy bias voltage for
thePIN diode. The voltage atDREFis derived from VCCby
a low-pass filter. The low-pass filter consisting of the
internal resistor R1, the internal capacitor C1 and the
externalcapacitor C2rejectsthesupplyvoltagenoise.The
external capacitor C2 should be equal to or larger than
1 nF for a high PSRR.

It is preferable to connect the cathode of the PIN diode to
a voltage higher than VCC when such a voltage source is
available on the board. In this case the DREF pin can be
left unconnected.
The reverse voltage across the PIN diode is 3.95 V
(5 − 1.05 V) for a 5 V supply and 2.25 V (3.3 − 1.05 V) for
a 3.3 V supply.

AGC
The TZA3033 transimpedance amplifier can handle input
currents from 0.25 µA to 1.6 mA. This means a dynamic
range of 79 dB. At low input currents, the transimpedance
mustbehigh to obtain an adequate output voltage,andthe
noise should be suitably low to guarantee minimum bit
error rate. At high input currents however, the
transimpedance should be low to avoid pulse width
distortion. This means that the gain of the amplifier has to
vary depending on the input signal level to handle such a
wide dynamic range. This is achieved in the TZA3033 by
implementing an Automatic Gain Control (AGC) loop.
TheAGCloop consists of a peak detector, aholdcapacitor
and a gain control circuit. The peak amplitude of the signal
is detected by the peak detector and stored on the hold
capacitor. The voltage across the hold capacitor is
compared to athreshold level. The threshold level is set at
an input current of 2.5 µA (p-p). AGC becomes active only
for input signals larger than the threshold level. It is
disabled for smaller signals. The transimpedance is then
at its maximum value (44 kΩ differential).
When the AGC is active, the feedback resistance of the
transimpedance amplifier is reduced to keep the output
voltage constant. The transimpedance is regulated from
44 kΩat low currents (I < 2.5 µA) to200 Ωat high currents
(I < 500 µA). Above 500 µA the transimpedance is at its
minimum and can not be reduced further but the front-end
remains linear until input currents of 1.6 mA (p-p).

current for a supply voltage of 3 V. In the lower graph the
difference between both output voltages, V
, is shown
o(dif)
for supply voltages of 3, 3.3 and 5 V. It can seen from the
graph that the output changes linearly up to an input
current of 2.5 µA where the AGC becomes active. From
this point on, the AGC tries to keep the differential output
voltage constant around 110 mV for medium range input
currents (input currents < 200 µA). The AGC can not
regulate for input currents above 500 µA, and the output
voltage rises again with the input current.

SOLDERING
Introduction to soldering surface mount packages
Thistextgives a very brief insight toacomplextechnology.
A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in
our
“Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages”
(document order number 9398 652 90011).
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all surface
mount IC packages. Wave soldering can still be used for
certainsurfacemountICs, but it is not suitable for finepitch
SMDs. In these situations reflow soldering is
recommended.
Reflow soldering
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of
fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied
tothe printed-circuit board by screenprinting, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.
Several methods exist for reflowing; for example,
convection or convection/infrared heating in a conveyor
type oven. Throughput times (preheating, soldering and
cooling) vary between 100 and 200 seconds depending
on heating method.
Typical reflow peak temperatures range from
215 to 250 °C. The top-surface temperature of the
packages should preferable be kept below 220 °C for
thick/large packages, and below 235 °C for small/thin
packages.
Wave soldering
Conventional single wave soldering is not recommended
forsurfacemountdevices (SMDs) or printed-circuit boards
with a high component density, as solder bridging and
non-wetting can present major problems.
To overcome these problems the double-wave soldering
method was specifically developed.
If wave soldering is used the following conditions must be
observed for optimal results:
• Use a double-wave soldering method comprising a
turbulent wave with high upward pressure followed by a
smooth laminar wave.
• For packages with leads on two sides and a pitch (e):
– larger than or equal to 1.27 mm, the footprint
longitudinal axis is preferred to be parallel to the
transport direction of the printed-circuit board;
– smaller than 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis
must be parallel to the transport direction of the
printed-circuit board.
The footprint must incorporate solder thieves at the
downstream end.
• Forpackageswithleads on four sides, the footprint must
be placed at a 45° angle to the transport direction of the
printed-circuit board. The footprint must incorporate
solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
During placement and before soldering, the package must
be fixed with a droplet of adhesive. The adhesive can be
applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe
dispensing. The package can be soldered after the
adhesive is cured.
Typical dwell time is 4 seconds at 250 °C.
A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal
of corrosive residues in most applications.
Manual soldering
Fix the component by first soldering two
diagonally-opposite end leads. Use a low voltage (24 V or
less) soldering iron applied to the flat part of the lead.
Contact time must be limited to 10 seconds at up to
300 °C.
When using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be
soldered in one operation within 2 to 5 seconds between
270 and 320 °C.

Suitability of surface mount IC packages for wave and reflow soldering methods
1. All surface mount (SMD) packages are moisture sensitive. Depending upon the moisture content, the maximum
temperature (with respect to time) and body size of the package, there is a risk that internal or external package
cracks may occur due to vaporization of the moisture in them (the so called popcorn effect). For details, refer to the
Drypack information in the
2. These packages are not suitable for wave soldering as a solder joint between the printed-circuit board and heatsink
(at bottom version) can not be achieved, and as solder may stick to the heatsink (on top version).
3. If wave soldering is considered, then the package must be placed at a 45° angle to the solder wave direction.
The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
4. Wave soldering is only suitable for LQFP, TQFP and QFP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger than 0.8 mm;
it is definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.65 mm.
5. Wave soldering is only suitable for SSOP and TSSOP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger than 0.65 mm; it is
definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.5 mm.
