1Gbps to 14Gbps, SFP+ Multirate Limiting Amplifier and VCSEL Driver
General Description
The MAX3799 is a highly integrated limiting amplifier and VCSEL driver that operates up to 14Gbps, making it suitable for Ethernet and Fibre Channel applications. By providing a selectable data path with a noise-shaping filter, the MAX3799 enables a module with 10G optics to be fully compliant with both 1000BASE-SR and 10GBASE-SR specifications. Operating from a single +3.3V supply, this low-power integrated limiting amplifier and VCSEL driver IC enables a platform design for SFP MSA as well as for SFP+ MSA-based optical transceivers.
