Data Sheet
10Gb/s surface mount coplanar APD
preamp receiver for low OSNR applications
AT10GC
The AT10GC receiver consists of an avalanche photodiode,
a low-noise preamplifier and a precision NTC thermistor in a
hermetic coplanar package with a connectorized single-mode
fiber pigtail. Differential outputs are provided to improve noise
rejection for enhanced sensitivity. It has been optimised for
use in 10Gb/s metro applications, either as a discrete device
or within a transponder, using NRZ modulation, with or
without FEC, at data rates up to 10.709Gb/s.
Features:
• Sensitivity, -26.5dBm typical
• Low capacitance high speed InGaAs
APD photodetector
• Supports FEC rates up to 10.709Gb/s
• Designed to exceed the environmental requirements
of Telcordia GR-468-CORE
• RoHS 5/6 compliant
Applications:
• Client or line side links
• 300 pin LR transponder applications
