The MAX3795 is a high-speed VCSEL driver for smallform- factor (SFF) and small-form-factor pluggable (SFP) fiber optic transmitters. It contains a bias generator, a laser modulator, and comprehensive safety features. The automatic power control (APC) adjusts the laser bias current to maintain average optical power over changes in temperature and laser properties. The driver accommodates common-cathode and differential configurations.

The MAX3795 operates up to 4.25Gbps. It can switch up to 15mA of laser modulation current and source up to 15mA of bias current. Adjustable temperature compensation is provided to keep the optical extinction ratio within specifications over the operating temperature range. The MAX3795 interfaces with the Dallas DS1856/DS1859 to meet SFF-8472 timing and diagnostic requirements. The MAX3795 accommodates various VCSEL packages, including low-cost TO-46 headers.

The MAX3795 safety circuit detects faults that could cause hazardous light levels and disables the VCSEL output. The safety circuits are compliant with SFF and SFP multisource agreements (MSAs).

The MAX3795 is available in a compact 4mm x 4mm, 24-pin thin QFN package and operates over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range. The MAX3795 is pin-forpin compatible with the MAX3740A and is available in lead-free packages.
