Philips Semiconductors
SDH/SONET STM4/OC12 postamplifiers
Objective specification
TZA3024T; TZA3024U
FEATURES
• Pin compatible with the NE/SA5224 and NE/SA5225 but
with extended power supply range and less external
component count
• Wideband operation from 1.0 kHz to 620 MHz typical
• Applicable in 622 Mbits/s SDH/SONET receivers
• Single supply voltage from 3.0 to 5.5 V
• PECL (Positive Emitter Coupled Logic) compatible data
outputs
• Programmable input signal level-detection which can be
adjusted using a single external resistor
• On-chip DC offset compensation without external
capacitor
• Fully differential for excellent PSRR.
APPLICATIONS
• Digital fibre optic receiver in short, medium and long
haul optical telecommunications transmission systems
or in high speed data networks
• Wideband RF gain block.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TZA3024 is a high gain limiting amplifier that is
designed to process signals from fibre optic preamplifiers
such as the TZA3023. It is pin compatible with the
NE/SA5224 and NE/SA5225 but with an extended power
supply range, and needs less external components.
Capable of operating at 622 Mbits/s, the chip has input
signal level detection with a user-programmable threshold.
The data and level-detection status outputs are differential
outputs for optimum noise margin and ease of use.
