PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ADN2882 is a compact, high performance 3.3 V power
supply SiGe transimpedance amplifier (TIA) optimized for
small form factor 4.25 Gbps metro-access, Ethernet PIN/APD-
TIA modules and 1×/2×/4× Fibre channel receiver applications
and meets OC48 SR/IR sensitivity requirements. The ADN2882
is a single-chip solution for detecting photodiode current with a
differential output voltage. The ADN2882 features low input
referred noise current of 600 nA enabling −22 dBm sensitivity;
3.2 GHz minimum bandwidth enables up to 4.25 Gbps
operation; +3.25 dBm nominal operation at 10dB extinction
ratio. RSSI output signal proportional to average input current
is available for monitoring and alarm generation. To facilitate
assembly in small form factor packages such as a TO-46 or TO-
56 header, the ADN2882 integrates the photodiode filter
network on chip and features 15 kHz low frequency cutoff
without any external components. The ADN2882 chip area is
less than 1 mm2, operates with a 3.3 V power supply and is
available in die form.
