EML 40Gb/s Broadband RF 3.3V EA LN GPPO Modulator Driver Amplifier OA4SMM5

Description

The OA4SMM5 is a small high performance broadband 40Gb/s Electro-Absorption 

optical modulator driver amplifier with low jitter, 3.3V amplitude, and excellent gain 

and group delay flatness to 45GHz. The driver is designed for electro-optical test 

equipment and SONET OC-768 / STM-256 optical modulator driver applications.

Application

The OA4SMM5 is offered in a small modularized package with excellent performance, 

and is intended for transponder integration. The OA4SMM5 has gain and power levels 

that are ideally suited for driving 40G electro-absorption modulators. The driver has low 

power dissipation, ample drive signal, low added jitter, fast rise/fall times, and is easy to 

use with simple bias voltages. The OA4SMM5 can be biased from a standard 5V supply.
