should equal 25Ω. Typical values for R
23Ω. For best performance, a bypass capacitor (0.01µF
typical) should be placed as close as possible to the
anode of the laser diode. Depending on the exact char-
acteristics of the laser diode and PC board layout, a
resistor (R

in the optical output.
In some applications (depending on laser-diode para-
sitic inductance characteristics), an RC shunt network
between the laser cathode and ground will help mini-
mize optical output aberrations. Starting values for most
coaxial lasers are R = 75Ω in series with C = 3.3pF.
These values should be experimentally adjusted until
the optical output waveform is optimized.
When transmitting NRZ data with long strings of con-
secutive identical digits (CIDs), LF droop can occur
and contribute to pattern-dependent jitter (PDJ). To
minimize this PDJ, three external components must be
properly chosen: capacitor C
APC loop time constant; pull-up inductor L
coupling capacitor C
To filter out noise effects and guarantee loop stability,
the recommended value for C
in an APC loop bandwidth of 10kHz or a time constant
of 16µs. As a result, the PDJ associated with an APC
loop time constant can be ignored.
The time constant associated with the output pull-up
inductor (L
will also impact the PDJ. For such a second-order net-
work, the PDJ due to the low frequency cutoff will be
dominated by L

The MAX3869 data and clock inputs are PECL compat-
ible. However, it is not necessary to drive the MAX3869
with a standard PECL signal. As long as the specified
common-mode voltage and the differential voltage
swings are met, the MAX3869 will operate properly.
