Data Sheet FRL15TCWx-D86-xxxxxA Mar. 2011 Full Band Tunable DFB Laser Module Applications Long Haul or Metropolitan DWDM Transmission Systems Dynamic Wavelength Provisioning and Add/Drop Multiplexer Descriptions FRL15TCWx-D86 series is full band tunable DFB laser module designed for long haul DWDM applications with external intensity modulator. The polarization maintaining fiber pigtail enables to directly connect a modulator without polarization control. The polarization state of output laser beam is maintained to a consistent orientation. Full band thermally tunable DFB laser diode chip is integrated with an optical isolator, thermo-electric coolers (TEC), thermistors, a power monitor photodiode, and a wavelength monitor photodiode in a hermetically sealed 26 pin butterfly package with same foot print as an industry standard 14 pin butterfly package. Full band thermally tunable DFB laser diode chip consists of DFB laser array and semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA). Each DFB laser is biased under constant current and output power is maintained by adjusting SOA current under automatic power control. By selecting an appropriate DFB laser and tuning the laser temperature, FRL15TCWx-D86 series can provide any ITU channel in 35 nm tuning range. This laser module complies with telecom requirements described in TelcordiaTM GR-468 and is manufactured in an ISOTM9001 certified production line. Features 35nm tunability (88 ITU channels at 50GHz spacing) available in C or L band Stable wavelength with integrated wavelength monitor High optical output power up to 20mW for C band High side mode suppression ratio (SMSR) in entire tuning range 26 pin butterfly package Low TEC power consumption Polarization maintaining fiber pigtail RoHS compliant package ODC-7AH001E 1/6 Data Sheet FRL15TCWx-D86-xxxxxA Mar. 2011 Absolute Maximum Ratings Parameters Storage Temperature Operating Case Temperature LD Operating Temperature Filter Operating Temperature LD Forward Current LD Reverse Voltage SOA Forward Current SOA Reverse Voltage PD Forward Current PD Reverse Voltage TEC1 Current (LD) TEC1 Voltage (LD) TEC2 Current (Filter) TEC2 Voltage (Filter) Relative Humidity Fiber Bend Radius Fiber Axial Pull Force Lead Soldering Temperature Lead Soldering Duration Torque Force Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Symbol Min.
