The SY88773V 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 SY88773V
quantizes these signals and outputs typically 800mV
pp
voltage-limited waveforms.
The SY88773V 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
10mV
pp
can be amplified to drive devices with CML inputs
or AC-coupled PECL inputs.
The SY88773V incorporates a loss-of-signal (LOS), open-
collector TTL output with internal 4.75kΩ pull-up resistor. A
programmable, loss-of-signal level set pin (LOSLVL) sets
the sensitivity of the input amplitude detection. LOS asserts
high if the input amplitude falls below the threshold set by
LOSLVL and de-asserts low otherwise. LOS can be fed
back to the enable (/EN) input to maintain output stability
under a loss-of-signal condition. /EN de-asserts the true
output signal without removing the input signal. Typically
4.6dB LOS hysteresis is provided to prevent chattering.

Incorporates 25kΩ pull-up to VCC.
Differential Data Input. Inputs must be biased to meet
common-mode range.
Reference Voltage: Bypass with 0.01µF low ESR
capacitor from REF to VCC to stabilize LOSLVL and REF.
Loss-of-Signal Level Set: A resistor from this pin to VCC
sets the threshold for the data input amplitude at which the
LOS output will be asserted.
Device Ground. Exposed pad must be soldered
(or equivalent) to the same potential as the ground pins.
Loss-of-Signal: Asserts high when the data input
amplitude falls below the threshold set by LOSLVL.

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 Ratlng 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.
7. The V
IHCMR
range is referenced to the most possible side of the differential input signal.
