GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The KGL4126FA is a high performance Mach Zehnder Modulator driver for SONET/SDH and
10GbE applications up to 10.7Gb/s. The device provides a single-ended output voltage > 6Vpp,
output amplitude control, and duty cycle (X-Point) control.
The KGL4126FA data input accepts single ended or differential AC-coupled signals. External
Capacitors for AC Termination and Blocking Capacitors are Required.
The device
provides a minimum of 6 Vpp output voltage AC coupled to a 50-ohm load. The output amplitude
can be tuned by varying VD, which is supplied at the output port using an external Bias-T.
The KGL4126FA is capable of adjusting the crossing point (X-point) from 45% to 55% of the
output eye diagram via the differential voltage between VB1 and VB2. The device specifications
are guaranteed for all crossing points from 45% to 55%.
The KGL4126FA is packaged in a high performance 20-pin 12mm QFP package.
