DESCRIPTION
Up to 1.25Gbps operation
75mA peak drive current
Separate modulation control
Separate output enable for laser safety
Differential inputs for data
75K input pulldown resistor
Single power supply
Available in 16-pin SOIC package
The SY100EL1003 is a high speed current source for
driving a semiconductor laser diode in optical transmission
applications. The output current modulation is DC –
voltage controlled. The modulation current is disabled
when output enable is HIGH.
The device incorporates complementary open collector
outputs with a capability of driving peak current of 75mA.
The laser driver current is adjustable by selection of RSET.
The resistor REXT must be placed between OUT and
VCC to dissipate the worst case power. RSER is
recommended to fix laser diode matching issues.
The SY100EL1003 utilizes the high performance
bipolar ASSET technology.

Pin Function
VCC, VCCO Separate positive power supply pins help
to isolate sensitive circuitry from noise
generating function. +5V for PECL operation
or ground for ECL operation.
VEE Most negative power supply input. Ground
for PECL operation or -5V for ECL operation.
VBB This pin provides a reference voltage for use
in single ended applications or when the
input signal is AC coupled into the device.
D,D These differential ECL/PECL 100K
compatible inputs receive NRZ data.
EN This ECL/PECL 100K compatible input enables
Laser Driver - modulation current transitions to
zero when asserted HIGH.
OUT, OUT Open collector outputs from the modulation
buffer drive these differential current outputs.
MC An external voltage sets the main value of
modulation current IO.
RSET An external resistor sets the source current
for modulation Imod.
NC These pins are not connected.

APPLICATION EXAMPLE
NOTES:
1. Split 100K ECL terminations are 82 and 130 to V
CC
and V
EE
respectively.
2. Recommended power supply bypass capacitors are 0.1µF with optional 10µF Tantalum in parallel.
3. It is required to use high frequency design techniques for board layout. A double sided or multilayer board is recommended in conjunction with a low
impedance ground plane and properly terminated transmission lines for all signal paths.
