|
 |
Up to 8 mA modulation current |
|
The NT24030 is a full-custom CMOS IC designed for high-speed VCSEL drive for applications such as IEEE-1394b S400, S800 and GbE over POF or PCS. In order to make the NT24030 as flexible as possible there are multiple features that can be programmed using metal mask options:
| • Temperature compensation – to minimise the effects of temperature on the optical output power of a specific device. |
| • Pulse width adjust – to compensate for emitters with unmatched rise and fall times. |
| • Peaking – for VCSELs peaking can be useful for improving the 'n' time. The amount of peaking can be varied. |
The drive current is set by an external resistor using the IMODSET pad or using an on-chip resistor by connecting IMODSET to GND. 3 dB optical power reduction functionality is also supported by connecting this pad to VDD.
The NT24030 driver IC will be supplied in die form, with a clearly visible orientation. |
