The AMC6V704 is
a highly integrated, low-power analog monitor and controller for optical-transceiver
applications.
The AMC6V704
includes four, 12-bit current-output digital-to-analog converters (IDACs) and four, 12-bit
voltage-output DACs (VDACs) with programmable output ranges. The device also includes a
12-bit, 1MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) used for external and internal signal
monitoring, supply and temperature alarm monitors, and a high-precision internal
reference.
The AMC6V704
VDACs support both positive and negative output-range operation and are capable or sourcing
and sinking up to 50mA, making them an excellent choice for biasing optical modulators.
Additionally, the AMC6V704 IDACs support a full-scale output
range of 200mA with very-low power dissipation. The IDACs eliminate the need for external
components to bias laser diodes. In combination, the AMC6V704
four VDACs and four IDACs enable accurate biasing of electro-absorption modulated
lasers.
The AMC6V704
also includes four input pins that are multiplexed to the ADC and incorporate a low-latency
window comparator. These features make this device an excellent choice for received signal
strength indicator (RSSI) and loss-of-signal (LOS) detection. The ADC is also capable of
measuring the voltage at the IDAC pins, as well as the current sourced or sunk by the VDACs,
thus enabling these outputs to be monitored.
The AMC6V704
low-power, high-integration, very small size, and wide operating temperature range make this
device an excellent choice as an all-in-one control circuit for optical modules.
