Package Type 16-lead 3 mm x 3 mm LFCSP ESD CAUTION ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

Typical PSRR vs. Supply-Noise Frequency Rev. 0 | Page 7 of 12 ADN2890 THEORY OF OPERATION LIMAMP RECEIVED SIGNAL STRENGTH INDICATOR (RSSI) Input Buffer The ADN2890 has an on-chip RSSI circuit that automatically detects the average received power based on a direct measurement of the PIN photodiode's current. The photodiode bias is supplied by the ADN2890, which allows a very accurate, onchip, average power measurement based on the amount of current supplied to the photodiode. The output of the RSSI is a current that is directly proportional to the average amount of PIN photodiode current. Placing a resistor between the RSSI_OUT pin and GND converts the current to a GND referenced voltage. This function eliminates the need for external RSSI circuitry in SFF-8472 compliant optical receivers. The limiting amplifier has differential inputs (PIN/NIN), with an internal 50 termination. The ROSA (receive optical subassembly) is typically ac-coupled to the ADN2890 inputs, although dc coupling is possible. An internal offset correction loop requires that a capacitor be connected between the CAZ1 and CAZ2 pins. A 0.01 F capacitor provides a low frequency cutoff of 2 kHz. CML Output Buffer The ADN2890 provides CML outputs, OUTP/OUTN. The outputs are internally terminated with 50 to VCC. SQUELCH MODE The outputs can be kept at a static voltage by driving the SQUELCH pin to a logic high. The SQUELCH pin can be driven directly by the LOS pin, which automatically disables the LIMAMP outputs in situations with no data input. LOSS OF SIGNAL (LOS) DETECTOR Driving the SQUELCH input to a logic high disables the limiting amplifier outputs. The SQUELCH input can be connected to the LOS output to keep the limiting amplifier outputs at a static voltage level anytime the input level to the limiting amplifier drops below the programmed LOS threshold. The receiver front-end LOS detector circuit indicates when the input signal level has fallen below the user-adjustable threshold. The threshold is set by a resistor connected between the THRADJ pin and VEE. The ADN2890 LOS circuit has a trip point down to <3.0 mV with >3 dB electrical hysteresis to prevent chatter at the LOS output. The LOS output is an opencollector output that must be pulled up externally with a 4.7 k to 10 k resistor. Rev. 0 | Page 8 of 12 ADN2890 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION PCB DESIGN GUIDELINES Proper RF PCB design techniques must be used for optimal performance. greatly enhances the reliability of the connectivity of the exposed pad to the GND plane during reflow. Power Supply Connections and Ground Planes Use of a 10 F electrolytic capacitor between VCC and VEE is recommended at the location where the 3.3 V supply enters the PCB. When using 0.1 F and 1 nF ceramic chip capacitors, they should be placed between the IC power supply VCC and VEE, as close as possible to the ADN2890 VCC pins. Use of one low impedance ground plane is recommended. The VEE pins should be soldered directly to the ground plane to reduce series inductance. If the ground plane is an internal plane and connections to the ground plane are made through vias, multiple vias can be used in parallel to reduce the series inductance, especially on Pin 9, which is the ground return for the output buffers. The exposed pad should be connected to the GND plane using filled vias so that solder does not leak through the vias during reflow. Using filled vias under the package If connections to the supply and ground are made through vias, the use of multiple vias in parallel helps to reduce series inductance, especially on Pin 12, which supplies power to the high speed OUTP/OUTN output buffers. Refer to the schematic in Figure 8 for recommended connections.

The high speed inputs, PIN and NIN, are internally terminated with 50 to an internal reference voltage. Figure 9 shows a recommended PC board layout. Use of 50 transmission lines is required for all high frequency input and output signals to minimize reflections: PIN, NIN, OUTP and OUTN. It is also necessary for the PIN/NIN input traces to be matched in length, and OUTP/OUTN output traces to be matched in length to avoid skew between the differential traces. C1, C2, C3, and C4 are ac-coupling capacitors in series with the high speed I/O. It is recommended that components be used such that the pad for the capacitor is the same width as the transmission line in order to minimize the mismatch in the 50 transmission line at the capacitor's pads. It is recommended that the transmission lines not change layers through vias, if possible. For supply decoupling, the 1 nF decoupling capacitor should be placed on the same layer as the ADN2890 as close as possible to the VCC pin. The 0.1 F capacitor can be placed on the bottom of the PCB directly underneath the 1 nF decoupling capacitor. All high speed CML outputs are back-terminated on As with any high speed mixed-signal design, take care to keep all high speed digital traces away from sensitive analog nodes. Soldering Guidelines for Chip Scale Package The lands on the 16 LFCSP are rectangular. The printed circuit board pad for these should be 0.1 mm longer than the package land length and 0.05 mm wider than the package land width. The land should be centered on the pad. This ensures that the solder joint size is maximized. The bottom of the chip scale package has a central exposed pad. The pad on the printed circuit board should be at least as large as this exposed pad. The user must connect the exposed pad to VEE using filled vias so that solder does not leak through the vias during reflow. This ensures a solid connection from the exposed pad to VEE.
