Description

The 269-type pump laser module with fiber grating

represents a family of thermoelectrically cooled,

high-power lasers. These modules utilize a fiber

Bragg grating to achieve stable wavelength perfor-

mance within the 1420 nm to 1510 nm range, over

the full operating temperature range. They are

designed as continuous-wave (CW) optical pump

sources for dense wavelength-division multiplexing

(DWDM) EDFA and Raman applications operating in

the C- and L-bands. The 269-type laser modules with

polarization-maintaining fiber are particularly suitable

for use in RPM designs requiring the high-power

combinations of multiple pumps.

The laser optical spectrum is locked by the fiber grat-

ing over a wide optical power range. The optical

spectrum is v ery narrow and the peak wavelength is

nearly insensitive to temperature v ariations and back

reflections.

The laser modules incorporate a high-power, quan-

tum-well laser chip that achieves grating-stabilized

fiber powers ranging to 280 mW.

An integral thermoelectric cooler (TEC) stabilizes the

laser at room temperature and, combined with a her-

metic environment, allows the device to achieve

high-power operation ov er the e xtended temperature

range of 0 °C to 75 °C. An internal InGaAs PIN pho-

todiode, mounted behind the laser diode, functions

as the laser detector and monitors light emissions

from the rear facet of the laser.

The 269-type module is off ered in a 14-pin, hermetic

b utterfly package.

Absolute Maximum Ratings

Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the de vice. These are abso-

lute stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess

of those given in the operational sections of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for extended

periods can adversely affect device reliability.

HBM (resistance = 1.5 kΩ, capacitance = 100 pF) is widely used and, therefore, can be used for comparison pur-

Mounting and Connections

CA UTION: This device is susceptible to damage as

a result of electrostatic discharge.

Proper precautions should be taken

during both handling and testing.

The base of the laser module (see Outline Diagram)

should be maintained at or below 75 °C (maximum)

during operation. Interfaces between the laser module

base and heat sink must be clean, and the use of a

thermal filler may be necessary.

Mounting Instructions

The minimum fiber bend radius is 1.0 in.

To avoid degradation in performance, mount the mod-

ule on the board as follows:

1. Place the bottom flange of the module on a flat heat

sink at least 0.5 in. x 1.180 in. (12.7 mm x 30 mm)

in size. The surface finish of the heat sink should be

better than 32 µin. (0.8 µm), and the surface flat-

ness must be better than 0.001 in. (25.4 µm). Using

thermal conductive grease is optional; however,

thermal performance may be improved if conductive

grease is applied between the bottom flange and

the heat sink.

2. Mount four #2-56 screws with Fillister heads

(M2-3 mm) at t he four screw hole locations (see

Outline Diagram). The Fillister head diameter must

not exceed 0.140 in. (3.55 mm). Do not apply more

than 1 in./lb. of torque to the screws.
