100Gbps Optical Modulator Driver, Centellax OA3MHQM, Broadband Amplifier, Quad Input


100Gbps Lithium Niobate Modulator Driver, Centellax OA3MHQM, 8V 28Gbps Broadband Amplifier, Quad Input

The OA3MHQM is a small, four channel, high performance, broadband 28Gb/s Lithium Niobate optical modulator driver with low jitter, 8V amplitude and excellent gain and group delay flatness. It is designed for 40 to 100 Gb/s Ethernet DP-QPSK and DQPSK SONET optical modulator driver applications. It is ideally suited for integration into small form-factor (SFF) transponders.

Application

The OA3MHQM is offered in a small modularized package with excellent performance, intended for transponder integration. The OA3MHQM has gain and power ideally suited for driving either 40G electro-absorption modulators or 100G Lithium Niobate modulators, for example, Fujitsu FTM7977HQA; OCLARO 792000870/1050/1160; JDSU 100G-QPMZ-SFF. It can be used for differential modulators or with other complex modulation schemes. It has low power dissipation, ample drive level, low added jitter, fast rise/fall times, and is easy to use with simple bias voltages.
