GN2044

Overview

The GN2044 is an integrated bi-directional CDR, EML laser driver and limiting amplifier designed specifically to enable low power SFP+ re-timed modules for SONET.Based on the Semtech ClearEdge™ technology, the GN2044 delivers best in class eye quality.

By integrating the laser driver, the GN2044 offers an extremely low-power solution for EML based optical modules. It consumes only 852mW typical from a 3.3V supply and a 1.8V supply, with the laser driver biased at 80mA bias current and 1.9Vpp single-ended swing.

Key Applications

• XFP & SFP+ 10Gb/s SONET optical transceivers

• XFP & SFP+ 10GBase-ER/ZR optical transceivers

• XFP DWDM optical transceivers
