Description
The D2525P family of DFB laser modules is designed
to be used with a lithium niobate external modulator
(see Table 5). The laser module features a polariza-
tion-maintaining fiber (PMF) pigtail, enabling it to be
directly connected to a modulator without the need of a
polarization controller. The PMF maintains the polar-
ization of the output light to a consistent orientation.
This allows the D2525P to be used as a CW light
source for systems requiring extremely low chirp such
as undersea or 10 Gb/s systems. The module contains
a multiquantum-well (MQW), distributed-feedback
(DFB) laser. This device nominally has an output
power of 10 mW. The wavelength of the laser can be
temperature-tuned for more precise wavelength selec-
tion by adjusting the temperature of the internal
thermoelectric cooler.
The 1.5 µm D2525P Laser Module is available in a 14-pin, hermet
ic, butterfly package.

Description

Controlled Feedback
The module contains an internal optical isolator that sup-
presses optical feedback in laser-based, fiber-optic sys-
tems. Light reflected back to the laser is attenuated a
minimum of 30 dB.

Controlled Temperature
An integral thermoelectric cooler (TEC) provides stable
thermal characteristics. The TEC allows for heating and
cooling of the laser chip to maintain a temperature of 25 °C
for case temperatures from –40 °C to +70 °C. The laser
temperature is monitored by the internal thermistor, which
can be used with external circuitry to control the laser chip
temperature. The maximum TEC current in cooling mode is
1.0 A or less, while the maximum TEC current in heating
mode is 0.5 A or less.

Controlled Power
An internal, InGaAs, PIN photodiode functions as the back-
facet monitor. The photodiode monitors emission from the
rear facet of the laser and, when used in conjunction with
control circuitry, can control optical power launched into the
fiber. Normally, this configuration is used in a feedback
arrangement to maintain consistent laser output power.
Standard Package
The laser module is fabricated in a 14-pin, hermetic, metal/
ceramic butterfly package that incorporates a bias tee to
separate the dc-bias path from the RF input. The RF input
has a nominal 25
Ω
impedance.
The laser module is equipped with
Fujikura*
polarization-
maintaining fiber (PMF). The fiber is PANDA type and is the
same fiber that is used on the CyOptics lithium niobate
modulators. It has a mode field diameter of 10.5
µm,
a clad-
ding diameter of 125
µm
±3
µm,
and a loose tube jacketed
fiber 900
µm
in diameter. The pigtail is terminated with an
ST ferrule
†
. Figure 1 shows the orientation of polarization in
the fiber.

rigorous internal standards that are consistent with

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are abso-
lute stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess
of those given in the operations sections of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for extended
periods can adversely affect device reliability.

Handling Precautions
Power Sequencing
To avoid the possibility of damage to the laser module
from power supply switching transients, follow this
turn-on sequence:
1. All ground connections
2. Most negative supply
3. Most positive supply
4. All remaining connections
Reverse the order for the proper turn-off sequence.
Mounting Instructions
The minimum fiber bend radius is 1.0 in.(25.4 mm)
To avoid degradation in performance, mount the mod-
ule on the board as follows:
1. Place the bottom flange of the module on a flat heat
sink at least 0.5 in. x 1.180 in. (12.7 mm x 30 mm) in
size. The surface finish of the heat sink should be
better than 32
µ
in. (0.8
µ
m), and the surface flatness
must be better than 0.001 in. (25.4
µ
m). Using ther-
mal conductive grease is optional; however, thermal
performance can be improved by up to 5% if conduc-
tive grease is applied between the bottom flange and
the heat sink.
2. Mount four #2-56 screws with Fillister heads
(M2-3 mm) at the four screw hole locations (see Out-
line Diagram). The Fillister head diameter must not
exceed 0.140 in. (3.55 mm). Do not apply more than
1 in.-lb. of torque to the screws.

Electrostatic Discharge
CAUTION: This device is susceptible to damage as
a result of electrostatic discharge. Take
proper precautions during both han-
dling and testing. Follow guidelines
such as JEDEC Publication No. 108-A
(Dec. 1988).
CyOptics employs a human-body model (HBM) for
ESD-susceptibility testing and protection-design evalu-
ation. ESD voltage thresholds are dependent on the
critical parameters used to define the model. A stan-
dard HBM (resistance = 1.5 kΩ, capacitance = 100 pF)
is widely used and, therefore, can be used for compari-
son purposes.
