The SY88822V is a high speed current switch for driving
a semiconductor laser diode in optical transmission
applications. The modulation current (I
OUT
) is controlled by
the current (I
RSET
) through the external resistor R
SET
. The
output OUT is HIGH and no current flows through OUT
when output enable is HIGH.
The device incorporates complementary open collector
outputs with a 30mA maximum current driving capability.
The external resistor R
EXT
must be placed between /OUT
and V
CC
to dissipate the worst case power. R
SER
is
recommended to compensate for laser diode matching
issues. Pin 9 and pin 10 should be connected to achieve
better performance.
The SY88822V utilizes the high performance bipolar
ASSET鈩?technology.
