MAX3746 - Limiting Amplifier

Description

The MAX3746 multirate limiting amplifier functions as a data quantizer for SONET, Fibre-Channel, and Gigabit Ethernet optical receivers.

The amplifier accepts a wide range of input voltages and provides selectable-level, current-mode logic (CML) output voltages with controlled edge speeds.

Features

  • include a programmable loss-of-signal (LOS) detect, an optional disable function (.

The amplifier accepts a wide range of input voltages and provides selectable-level, current-mode logic (CML) output voltages with controlled edge speeds. A received-signal-strength indicator (RSSI) is available when the MAX3746 is DC-coupled to the MAX3744/MAX3724 SFP transimpedance amplifier (TIA). A receiver consisting of the MAX3744/MAX3724 and the MAX3746 can provide up to 19dB RSSI dynamic range.
