General Description

The VSC7924 is a single 5V supply, 2.5Gb/s laser diode driver with direct access to the laser modulation and bias FETs. Laser bias and modulation currents are set by external components allowing precision monitoring and setting of the current levels. Data inputs accept ECL levels. Data density outputs are provided to allow the user to adjust the laser bias in high unbalanced data applications.

Calculation of the Maximum Case Temperature

The VSC7924 is designed to operate with a maximum junction temperature of 125°C. The rise from the case to junction is determined by the power dissip ation of the device. The power dissipation is d etermined by the V

current plus the operating I

MOD

and I

currents.

The power of the chip is determined by the following formula:

P

= (-VSS * ISS) + ((V

The thermal rise from junction to case is

* PD. For the ceramic package, θJC = 25°C/W. Thus the ther-

JC

mal rise is:

25°C/W * 1.336W = 33.4°C

The maximum case temperature is:

125°C – 33.4°C = 91.6°C

D

This will net a maximum junction to case thermal rise of: 1.815W * 25°C/W = 45.4°C

This situation will allow maximum case temperature of: 125°C – 45.4°C = 79.6°C
