The TZA3041AHL, TZA3041BHL and TZA3041U are fully
integrated laser drivers for Gigabit Ethernet/Fibre Channel
(1.2 Gbits/s) systems, incorporating the RF path between
the data multiplexer and the laser diode. Since the dual
loop bias and modulation control circuits are integrated on
the IC, the external component count is low. Only
decoupling capacitors and adjustment resistors are
required.
TheTZA3041AHL features an alarm function for signalling
extreme bias current conditions. The alarm low and high
threshold levels can be adjusted to suit the application
using only a resistor or a current Digital-to-Analog
Converter (DAC).
TZA3041AHL
• Laser alarm output for signalling extremely low and high
bias current conditions.
TZA3041BHL
• Extra 1.2 Gbits/s loop mode input; both CML and PECL
compatible.
TZA3041U
• Bare die version with combined bias alarm and loop
mode functionality.
The TZA3041BHL is provided with an additional RF data
input to facilitate remote (loop mode) system testing.
The TZA3041U is a bare die version for use in compact
laser module designs. The die contains 40 pads and
features the combined functionality of the TZA3041AHL
and the TZA3041BHL.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The TZA3041AHL, TZA3041BHL and TZA3041U laser
drivers accept a 1.2 Gbits/s Non-Return to Zero (NRZ)
input data stream and generate an output signal with
sufficient current to drive a solid state Fabry Perot (FP) or
Distributed FeedBack (DFB) laser. They also contain dual
loop control circuitry for stabilizing the true laser optical
power levels representing logic 1 and logic 0.
The input buffers present a high impedance to the data
stream on the differential inputs (pins DIN and DINQ).
The input signal can be at CML level of approximately
200 mV (p-p) below the supply voltage, or at PECL level
upto 800 mV (p-p). The inputs can beconfiguredtoaccept
CML signals by connecting external 50 Ω pull-up resistors
between pins DIN and DINQ to V
CC(R)
. If PECL
compatibility is required, the usual Thevenin termination
can be applied.
For ECL signals (negative and referenced to ground) the
inputs should be AC-coupled to the signal source.
If AC-coupling is applied, a constant input signal (either
low of high) will bring the device in an undefined state.
To avoid this, it is recommended to apply a slight offset to
the input stage. The applied offset must be higher than the
specified value in Chapter “Characteristics”, but much
lower than the applied input voltage swing.
The RF path is fully differential and contains a differential
preamplifier and a main amplifier. The main amplifier is
designed to handle large peak currents required at the
output laser driving stage and is insensitive to supply
voltage variations. The output signal from the main
amplifier drives a current switch which supplies a
guaranteed maximum modulation current of 60 mA at
pins LA and LAQ. Pin BIAS delivers a guaranteed
maximum DC bias current of up to 90 mA for adjusting the
optical laser output to a level above its light emitting
threshold.
Automatic laser control
A laser with a Monitor PhotoDiode (MPD) is required for
the laser control circuit (see Figs 6 and 7).
The MPD current is proportional to the laser emission and
is applied to pin MONIN. The MPD current range is from
100 to 1000 µA (p-p). The inputbufferisoptimized to cope
with MPD capacitances up to 50 pF. To prevent the input
buffer breaking into oscillation with a low MPD
capacitance, it is required to increase the capacitance to
the minimum value specified in Chapter “Characteristics”
by connecting an extra capacitor between pin MONIN and
V
.

DC reference currents are applied to pins ZERO and ONE
to set the MPD reference levels for laser LOW and laser
HIGH.A resistor connected between pin ZERO and V
and a resistor connected between pin ONE and V
sufficient, but current DACs can also be used.
The voltages on pins ZERO and ONE are held constant at
a level of 1.5 V below V
. The reference current
CC(R)
applied to pin ZERO is multiplied by 4 and the reference
current flowing into pin ONE is multiplied internally by 16.

Itshouldbenoted that the MPD current is stabilized, rather
than the actual laser optical output power. Deviations
between optical output power and MPD current, known as
‘tracking errors’, cannot be corrected.
Designing the modulation and bias loop
TheopticalONE and ZERO regulation loop time constants
are determined by on-chip capacitances. If the resulting
time constants are found to be too small in a specific
application, they can be increased by connecting external
capacitors to pins TZERO and TONE, respectively.
The optical ONE loop time constant and bandwidth can be
estimated using the following formulae:
represent the
monitor photodiode current during an optical ONE and an
optical ZERO, respectively.
Example: A laser is operating at optical output power
levels of 0.3 mW for laser HIGH and 0.03 mW for laser
LOW (extinction ratio of 10 dB). Suppose the
corresponding MPD currents for this type of laser are
260 and 30 µA, respectively.
In this example the reference current is

The optical ZERO loop time constant and bandwidth can

the steepness of the laser slope. It is the amount of the
extra optical output power in W/A of modulation current
optical output power.
• R is the monitor photodiode responsivity. It is the
amount of the extra monitor photodiode current in A/W
optical output power.

above the threshold level, it may be assumed that η

optical ONE level, due to the decreasing slope near the
threshold level.
Inthisexampletheresultingbandwidthfor the optical ONE
regulation loop, without external capacitance, would be:
It is not necessary to add additional capacitance with this
type of laser.
Data pattern and bit rate dependency of the control
loop
The constants in Equations (1) and (3) are valid, provided
a frequent presence of sufficiently long runs of ‘constant
zero’ and ‘constant one’. The longest run of zeros and
ones, occurring typically within a single loop time period
(τ
ONE
and τ
), must be at least approximately 6 ns.
ZERO
If the longest run of zeros and ones has a lower, but
constant value, there will be a measurable, but fixed
deviation in the scaling factors in Equations (1) and (3).
In practice, it can be witnessed that the optical extinction
ratio will increase if the bit rate is increased. Therefore it is
important to use the actual data patterns and bit rate of the
final application circuit for adjusting the optical levels.
Monitoring the bias and modulation current
Although not recommended, the bias and modulation
currentsgenerated by the laser driver can be monitored by
measuring the voltages on pins TZERO and TONE,
respectively. The relations between these voltages and
thecorrespondingcurrentsaregivenastransconductance
values and are specified in Chapter “Characteristics”.
The voltages on pins TZERO and TONE range from
1.4 to 3.4 V. The impedance connected at these pins
should have an extremely high value. It is mandatory to
use a CMOS buffer or an amplifier with an input
impedance higher than 100 GΩ and an extremely low
input leakage current (pA range).

Manual laser override
The automatic laser control function can be overridden by
connecting voltage sources to pins TZERO and TONE to
take direct control of, respectively, the bias current source
and the modulation current source. The control voltages
should be in the range from 1.4 to 3.4 V to sweep the
modulationcurrent through the range from 1 to 60 mA and
the bias current through therange from 1 to 90 mA. These
current ranges are guaranteed. Depending on the
temperature and manufacturing process spread, current
values higher than the specified ranges can be achieved.
However, bias and modulation currents in excess of the
specified range are not supported and should be avoided.
Currents into or out pins TZERO and TONE in excess of
10 µA must be avoided to prevent damage of the circuit.
Automatic laser shut-down and laser slow start
The laser modulation and bias currents can be rapidly
switched off when a HIGH-level (CMOS) is applied to
pin ALS. This function allows the circuit to be shut-down in
the event of an optical system malfunction. A 25 kΩ
pull-down resistor defaults the input of pin ALS to the
non active state.
When a LOW-level is applied to pin ALS, the modulation
and bias current slowly increase to the desired values with
the typical time constants of τ
ONE
and τ
This can be used as a laser slow start.
Bias alarm for TZA3041AHL
The bias current alarm circuit detects and flags whenever
thebias current is outside a predefinedrange. This feature
can detect excessive bias current due to laser aging and
lasermalfunctioning. The maximum permitted bias current
should be applied to pin ALARMHI with an attenuation
ratio of 1500; the minimum to pin ALARMLO with an
attenuation ratio of 300.
Like the reference currents for the laser current control
loop, the alarm reference currents can be set using
external resistors connected between pins ALARMHI
or ALARMLO and V
. The resistor values can be

If the alarm condition is true, the voltage on pin ALARM
goesto HIGH-level (CMOS). This signal could be used, for
example, to disable the laser driver by driving pin ALS
(a latch is needed in between to prevent oscillation).
Loop mode for TZA3041BHL
In the loop mode the total system application can be
tested. It allows for uninhibited optical transmission
through the fibre front-end (from the photodiode through
thetransimpedancestageandthedataandclock recovery
unit, to the laser driver and via the laser back to the fibre).
It should be noted that the optical receiver used in
conjunction with the TZA3041BHL musthave a loop mode
output in order to complete the test loop.
AHIGH-level on pin ENL selects the loop mode. By default
pin ENL is pulled at LOW-level by a 25 kΩ pull-down
resistor.
Power supply connections
Three separate supply domains [labelled V
and V
high-current outputs, the PECL or CML inputs, and the
monitor photodiode current input. The three domains
should be individually filtered before being connected to a
central VCC (see Figs 6 and 7). All supply pins need tobe connected. The supply levels should be equal and in
accordance with the values specified in
Chapter “Characteristics”.

To maximize power supply isolation, the MPD cathode on
the laser should be connected to V
diode anode to V
. It is recommended to provide the
CC(B)
laser anode with a separate decoupling capacitor C11.
The inverted laser driver modulation pin LAQ is generally
not used. To properly balance the output stage, an
equalizationnetwork Z1withanimpedancecomparableto
the laser is connected between pin LAQ and V
All external components should be SMD, preferably of
size 0603 or smaller. The components must be mounted
as close to the IC as possible. It is specially recommended
to mount the following components very close to the IC:
• Power supply decoupling capacitors C2, C4 and C6
• Input matching network on pins DIN and DINQ
• Capacitor C7 on pin MONIN
• Output matching network Z1 at the unused output.
Grounding bare die
In addition to the separate VCC domains, the bare die
contains three corresponding ground domains. Isolation
between the GND domains is limited due to the finite
substrate conductance.
Mountthe die on a, preferably large and highly conductive,
grounded die pad. All pads GND have to be bonded tothe die pad. The external ground is thus optimally
combined with the die ground, avoiding ground bouncing
problems.
Layout recommendations
Layout recommendations for the TZA3041AHL and
TZA3041BHL can be found in application note

6. The specified transconductance is the ratio between the biasing current at pin BIAS and the voltage at pin TZERO,
under small signal conditions.
7. The values indicate the guaranteed interval, i.e. the lowest attainable output current is always lower than 3 mA and
the highest output current always higher than 60 mA.
8. The voltage rise and fall times can be larger, due to capacitive effects. Specifications are guaranteed by design and
characterization. Each device is tested at full operating speed to guarantee the RF functionality.
9. Measured in a frequency band from 250 kHz to 5 MHz, according to
“ITU-T Recommendation G.813”
.
The electrically generated (current) jitter is assumed to be less than 50% of the optical output jitter. The specification
is guaranteed by design.
10. The values indicate the guaranteed interval, i.e. the lowest output current always is less than 2.5 mA and the highest
output current is always more than 90 mA.
11. The response time is defined as the delay between the onset of the ramp on pin ALS (at 10% of the HIGH-level) and
the extinction of the bias current (at 10% of the original value).
12. The reference currents can be set by using a resistor between V
and pins ALARMLO or ALARMHI;

SOLDERING
Introduction to soldering surface mount packages
Thistextgivesavery 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”
(document order number 9398 652 90011).
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all surface
mount IC packages. Wave solderingis not always suitable
for surface mount ICs, or for printed-circuit boards with
high population densities. In these situations reflow
soldering is often used.
Reflow soldering
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of
fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied
totheprinted-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.
Several methods exist for reflowing; for example,
infrared/convection 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 230 °C.
Wave soldering
Conventional single wave soldering is not recommended
for surface mount devices () 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.
TZA3041AHL; TZA3041BHL;
TZA3041U
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.
• Forpackageswith leads 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.
