MAX3948ETE+ Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MAX3948ETE+ is a multirate, low-power laser diode driver designed for Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and SONET transmission systems at data rates up to 11.3Gbps. This device operates at 3.3V and is optimized to drive a differential transmitter optical subassembly (TOSA). It can deliver laser modulation currents of up to 85mA into a 5Ω external differential load, with programmable DC currents up to 61mA.

 

The device features on-chip termination for differential AC-coupled signals and integrated back termination resistors. An input equalization block can be activated to compensate for host connector losses. The MAX3948 supports up to four channel addresses over a single 3-wire digital interface, allowing adjustment of input equalization, polarity, output deemphasis, and modulation and DC currents without external components.

 

Packaged in a compact 16-TQFN (3x3mm) with surface mount mounting, the MAX3948ETE+ is specified for an extended temperature range of -40°C to +95°C. Its low power consumption makes it suitable for enabling <1W maximum total SFP+ module power dissipation and <2.5W maximum total QSFP+ module power dissipation.

 

Applications include 40GBASE-LR4 QSFP+ Optical Transceivers, 10GBASE-LR SFP+ Optical Transceivers, 10GBASE-LRM SFP+ Optical Transceivers, and OC192-SR SFP+ SDH/SONET Transceivers.
