VIII. Digital Diagnostics Functions
As defined by the XFP MSA1, Finisar XFP transceivers provide digital diagnostic
functions via a 2-wire serial interface, which allows real-time access to the following
operating parameters:
Transceiver temperature
Laser bias current
Transmitted optical power
Received optical power
Transceiver supply voltage
TEC Temperature
It also provides a sophisticated system of alarm and warning flags, which may be used to
alert end-users when particular operating parameters are outside of a factory-set normal
range.
The operating and diagnostics information is monitored and reported by a Digital
Diagnostics Transceiver Controller (DDTC) inside the transceiver, which is accessed
through the 2-wire serial interface. When the serial protocol is activated, the serial clock
signal (SCL pin) is generated by the host. The positive edge clocks data into the XFP
transceiver into those segments of its memory map that are not write-protected. The
negative edge clocks data from the XFP transceiver. The serial data signal (SDA pin) is
bi-directional for serial data transfer. The host uses SDA in conjunction with SCL to
mark the start and end of serial protocol activation. The memories are organized as a
series of 8-bit data words that can be addressed individually or sequentially. The 2-wire
serial interface provides sequential or random access to the 8 bit parameters, addressed
from 000h to the maximum address of the memory.
For more detailed information, including memory map definitions, please see the XFP
MSA documentation1.
Receiver Threshold Adjustment
The FTLX4213M3xxx also provides access to receiver decisio n threshold adjustment via
2-wire serial interface, in order to improve receiver OSNR performance based on specific
link conditions. It is implemented as follows:
Rx Threshold of XFP transceivers will be factory-set for optimized performance
in non-FEC applications. This will be the default value during both cold start
(power-up) and warm start (module reset).
The transceiver supports adjustment of Rx Threshold value by the host through
register 76d, table 01h. This is intended to be used in FEC applications.
FTLX4213x3xxxx 3200ps/nm DWDM XFP Product Specification – December 2010 F i n i s a r
© Finisar Corporation 16-December-2010 Rev C4 Page 9
Register 76d, table 01h is a volatile memory. Therefore if the transceiver is
power-cycled, the register starts up with a value of 00h which corresponds to the
default Rx Threshold value.
The threshold adjustment input value is 2’s complement 7 bit value (-128 to
+127), with 0 corresponding to default Rx threshold value. Full range of
adjustment provides at least a ±10% change in Rx threshold from the default
value.
ITU channel Tuning (per SFF-8477 rev 1.3)
To avoid possible conflict with legacy tuning systems designed to INF-8077i, the
frequency grid tuning commands of SFF-8477 supplement rather than supplant the
wavelength grid tuning commands of INF-8077i.
Tuning Management Interface for ITU Frequency Grid Applications
Finisar’s FTLX4213M3xxxx supports Frequency tuning by channel number only.
The XFP frequency tuning is indicated by the transceiver description encoded in Serial
ID Byte 138 bit 3.
Data Address Bit Description
138 3 Tunable DWDM (selection by channel number, bytes 112-113)
138 2 Tunable DWDM (selection in 50 pm steps, bytes 72-73)
138 0–1 Reserved
A desired frequency channel can be commanded by the user by writing into Bytes 112
(MSB) and 113 (LSB).
Frequency channel control command:
Address Bit Name Description
112 (MSB) &
113 (LSB) All Channel
Number Set User input of channel number, which is
an integer 1 to N (N=Number of
Channels)
114 (MSB) &
115 (LSB) All Frequency Error Frequency error reported in 16 bit
signed integer with LSB=0.1 GHz
116 - 117 All Reserved Reserved
The channel number is derived from the following equation using parameters found in
Module capabilities as listed in Byte Addresses 60-69:
Channel number = 1 + (Desired Frequency – First Frequency) / Grid Spacing
If “0” is used for the channel number, the XFP will go into standby mode until a valid
channel number is received.

Tunable Transceiver Initialization / Power Cycling:
When a tunable module is plugged in for the first time it will go to a default channel, or if
Tx_DIS is asserted it will go to a standby condition.
When the module is power cycled it will automatically go to the last channel selected, or
if Tx_DIS is asserted it will go to a standby condition. If Tx_DIS is asserted, the last
channel selected will be cleared, and a valid new channel command will be required to
set a channel.
If the Tx is disabled and then re-enabled, the module returns to the last channel
selected.
