Figure 17. AD807 Application with Epitaxx PIN—Transimpedance Amplifier Module
The entire circuit was enclosed in a shielded box. Table I sum-
marizes results of tests performed using a 223-1 PRN Sequence,
and varying the average power at the PIN diode.
The circuit acquires and maintains lock with an average input
power as low as –39.25 dBm.

SONET (OC-3)/SDH (STM-1) Fiber Optic Receiver Circuit
A light wave receiver circuit for SONET/SDH application at
155 Mbps is shown in Figure 17, with test results given in Table
II. The circuit operates from a single 5 V supply, and uses two
major components: an Epitaxx ERM504 PIN-TIA module with
AGC, and the AD807 IC.
A 120 MHz, third order, low-pass Butterworth filter at the
output of the PIN-TIA module provides adequate bandwidth
(70% of the bit rate), and attenuates high frequency (out of
band) noise.
