GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TZA3034 is a high gain limiting amplifier that is
designed to process signals from fibre optic preamplifiers
like the TZA3033. It is pin compatible with the NE/SA5224
and NE/SA5225 but with extended power supply range,
and needs less external components. Capable of
operating at 155 Mbits/s, the chip has input signal level
detection with a user-programmable threshold. The data
and level-detection status outputs are differential outputs
for optimum noise margin and ease of use.

threshold level is set by connecting an external resistor between RSET and V

or by forcing a current into RSET; default value for this resistor is 180 kΩ which
corresponds with approximately 4 mV (p-p) differential input signal
The TZA3034 accepts up to 155 Mbits/s SD/SONET data
streams, with amplitudes from 2 mV (p-p) up to 1 V (p-p)
single-ended. The input signal will be amplified and limited
to differential PECL output levels (see Fig.1).
The input buffer A1 presents an impedance of
approximately 4.5 kΩ to the data stream on the inputs DIN
and DINQ. The input can be used both single-ended and
differential, but differential operation is preferred for better
performance.
Because of the high gain of the postamplifier, a very small
offset voltage would shift the decision level in such a way
that the input sensitivity decreases drastically. Therefore a
DC offset compensation circuit is implemented in the
TZA3034, which keeps the input of buffer A3 at its toggle
point in the absence of any input signal.
An input signal level detection is implemented to check if
the input signal is above the user-programmed level.
The outcome of this test is available at the PECL
outputs ST and STQ. This flag can also be used to prevent
the PECL outputs DOUT and DOUTQ from reacting to
noise in the absence of a valid input signal, by connecting
the output STQ to the input JAM. This insures that data will
only be transmitted when the input signal-to-noise ratio is
sufficient for low bit error rate system operation.
PECL logic
The logic level symbol definitions for PECL are shown in
Fig.4.
Input biasing
The input pins DIN and DINQ are DC biased at
approximately 2.55 V by an internal reference generator
(see Fig.5). The TZA3034 can be DC coupled, but AC
coupling is preferred. In case of DC coupling, the driving
source must operate within the allowable input signal
range (2.0 V to V
more than a few millivolt should be avoided, since the
internal DC offset compensation circuit has a limited
correction range.
If AC coupling is used to remove any DC compatibility
requirement, the coupling capacitors must be large
enough to pass the lowest input frequency of interest.
For example, 1 nF coupling capacitors react with the
internal 4.5 kΩ input bias resistors to yield a lower −3dB
frequency of 35 kHz. This then sets a limit on the
maximum number of consecutive pulses that can be
sensed accurately at the system data rate. Capacitor
tolerance and resistor variation must be included for an
accurate calculation.
DC-offset compensation
A control loop connected between the inputs of buffer A3
and amplifier A1 (see Fig.1) will keep the input of buffer A3
at its toggle point in the absence of any input signal.
Because of the active offset compensation which is
integrated in the TZA3034, no external capacitor is
required. The loop time constant determines the lower
cut-off frequency of the amplifier chain, which is set at
approximately 850 Hz.
Input signal level-detection
The TZA3034 allows for user-programmable input signal
level-detection and can automatically disable the switching
of the PECL outputs if the input signal is below a set
threshold. This prevents the outputs from reacting to noise
in the absence of a valid input signal, and insures that data
will only be transmitted when the signal-to-noise ratio of
the input signal is sufficient for low bit-error-rate system
operation. Complementary PECL flags (ST and STQ)
indicate whether the input signal is above or below the
programmed threshold level.
The input signal is amplified and rectified before being
compared to a programmable threshold reference. A filter
is included to prevent noise spikes from triggering the
level-detector. This filter has a nominal 1 µs time constant
and additional filtering can be achieved by using an
external capacitor between pin CF and V
(the internal
CCA
driving impedance nominally is 25 kΩ). The resultant
signal is then compared to a threshold current through
pin RSET (see Fig.6). This current can be set by
connecting an external resistor R
pin RSET and V
, or by forcing a current into pin RSET.

Example: Detection should occur if the differential voltage
of the input signals drops below 4 mV (p-p). In this case, a
reference current of 0.002 × 0.004 = 8 µA should flow into
pin RSET. This can be set using a current source or simply
by connecting a resistor of the appropriate value.
The resistor must be connected between V

pin RSET. In this example the resistor would be:

The hysteresis is fixed internally at 3 dB electrical. In the
example of above, a differential level below 4 mV (p-p) of
the input signal will drive pin ST to LOW, and an input
signal level above 5.7 mV (p-p) will drive pin ST to HIGH.
Since a JAM function is provided which forces the data
outputs to a predetermined state (DOUT = LOW and
DOUTQ = HIGH), the pins STQ and JAM can be
connected to automatically disable the signal transmission
when the chip senses that the input signal is below the
programmed threshold.
Response time of the input signal level-detection circuit is
determined by the time constant of the input capacitors,
together with the filter time constant (1 µs internal plus the
additional capacitor at pin CF).

There is no soldering method that is ideal for all IC
packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when
through-hole and surface mounted components are mixed
on one printed-circuit board. However, wave soldering is
not always suitable for surface mounted ICs, or for
printed-circuits with high population densities. In these
situations reflow soldering is often used.
This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology.
A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in
our
“Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages”
(order code 9398 652 90011).
Reflow soldering
Reflow soldering techniques are suitable for all SO
packages.
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of
fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied
to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.
Several techniques exist for reflowing; for example,
thermal conduction by heated belt. Dwell times vary
between 50 and 300 seconds depending on heating
method. Typical reflow temperatures range from
215 to 250 °C.
Preheating is necessary to dry the paste and evaporate
the binding agent. Preheating duration: 45 minutes at
45 °C.
Wave soldering
Wave soldering techniques can be used for all SO
packages if the following conditions are observed:
• A double-wave (a turbulent wave with high upward
pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave) soldering
technique should be used.
• The longitudinal axis of the package footprint must be
parallel to the solder flow.
• The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves at
the downstream end.
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.
Maximum permissible solder temperature is 260 °C, and
maximum duration of package immersion in solder is
10 seconds, if cooled to less than 150 °C within
6 seconds. 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.
Repairing soldered joints
Fix the component by first soldering two diagonallyopposite end leads. Use only a low voltage soldering iron
(less than 24 V) 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.
