Description
The transmitter module is intended for use at SDH and SONET bit rates. The
device meets the intention of the ITU-T (G.691) recommendations.
The single silicon IC is used as a laser driver, modulator and automatic power
control. To ensure a proper laser operation over the wide temperature range
and life of operation, the average optical output power is controlled. The
laser bias is externally accessible for monitoring of the performance. A power
alarm is activated when the average optical power cannot be maintained
within specification. A laser shut-down is also provided according to SDH/
SONET requirements.
