DESCRIPTION
The SY88843V low-power limiting post amplifier is
designed for use in fiber-optic receivers. The device connects
to typical transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs). The linear signal
output from TIAs can contain significant amounts of noise
and may vary in amplitude over time. The SY88843V
quantizes these signals and outputs typically 800mV
PP
voltage-limited waveforms.
The SY88843V operates from a single +3.3V
±10%
or
+5V
±10%
power supply, over an industrial temperature
range of –40°C to +85°C. With its wide bandwidth and high
gain, signals with data rates up to 3.2Gbps and as small as
10mVp-p can be amplified to drive devices with CML inputs
or AC-coupled PECL inputs.
The SY88843V incorporates a signal detect (SD), open-
collector TTL output with internal 4.75kΩ pull-up resistor. A
programmable, loss-of-signal level set pin (SDLVL) sets the
sensitivity of the input amplitude detection. SD asserts high
if the input amplitude rises above the threshold set by SDLVL
and de-asserts low otherwise. SD can be fed back to the
enable (EN) input to maintain output stability under a loss
of signal condition. EN asserts the true output signal without
removing the input signal. Typically 4.6dB SD hysteresis is
provided to prevent chattering.

Notes:
1. Permanent device damage may occur if Absolute Maximum Ratings are exceeded. This is a stress rating only and functional operation is not implied
at conditions other than those detailed in the operational sections of this data sheet. Exposure to Absolute Maximum Rating conditions for extended
periods may affect device reliability.
2. The data sheet limits are not guaranteed if the device is operated beyond the operating ratings.
3. Thermal performance assumes the use of 4-layer PCB. Exposed pad must be soldered (or equivalent) to the device’s most negative potential on the
PCB.
4. Excludes current of CML output stage. See “Detailed Description.”
5. Total device current with no output load.
6. Output levels are based on a 50Ω to V
CC
load impedance. If the load impedance is different, the output level will be changed. Amplifier is in limiting
mode.
