MALD-37030 is a transceiver IC with dual CDRs targeted for long reach direct modulated Laser (DML) applications. The MALD-
37030 is intended for CPRI and 25G Ethernet telecom applications. The CDRs in the TX and RX channels are reference-free
and can be programmed to support half rate as well as bypassed to support legacy or non-standard data rates. The TX channel
includes a CTLE with adaptive/programmable equalization and a flexible output driver to directly drive DML lasers in TO-Cans
or in hybrid packages. A buck-boost converter tracks the laser forward voltage and automatically generates laser anode
voltages from 2.5V to 4.5V to optimize power dissipation and maintain eye quality. The RX channel includes a high-sensitivity
limiting amplifier with programmable peaking, slice level, LOS circuit with programmable threshold and hysteresis, a high
performance CDR with programmable loop bandwidth, and an output driver with programmable output swing and 2-tap de-
emphasis. The MALD-37030 is assembled in a 5 mm x 6 mm LGA (Land Grid Array) package and supports on-chip diagnostic
features like PRBS (31/9) generation, PRBS31 error detector and bi-directional loop-back. The device is controlled through an
I2C interface. The device is powered from a single 3.3V supply but an internal 1.8V buck converter supplies most of the chip
current.
