Functional Description

A simplified block diagram of the

HGLM-1063 module is shown in

Figure 2. This block diagram

shows the 5 key elements of the

module. These are the Transmit-

ter I.C., the Laser Diode Assembly,

the Receiver I.C., the photodiode

assembly, and the Open Fiber

Control circuit. The high level of

integration on the HGLM-1063 is

apparent from this block

diagram. Pin assignments and

signal definitions are given on

pages 6 and 7.

In general, the HGLM-1063

utilizes a user provided Transmit

Byte Clock (TBC) of 53.125 MHz

to transmit two 8b/10b encoded

data bytes, simultaneously, by

creating a serial data stream of

1062.5 MBd and modulating a

780 nm laser diode with it. The

20 bit wide (two encoded bytes)

data input is provided to the

module through the 80 pin con-

nector in standard TTL format.

Similarly, the HGLM-1063

receives 780 nm optical signals at

a data rate of 1062.5 MBd,

deserializes this data stream to

recover the two encoded data

bytes and provides this 20 bit

wide standard TTL data to the

receiving system via the 80 pin

connector. The receiver also

recovers the byte rate clock for

use in clocking the received 20

bit wide parallel data.

Link Acquisition and

Power Up

The following discussion assumes

the HGLM-1063 is connected in a

full duplex point to point link as

shown in Figure 3. When initially

applying power to the HGLM-

1063, the Transmit Byte Clock

must start no later than 5 msec

after the +5 volt supply reaches

the +4 volt level. If this require-

ment is not met, the Open Fiber

Control (OFC) circuit may stick

in a nonfunctional state. If this

should happen, the OFC can be

put into a functional state by

holding the Enable Wrap

(EWRAP) line high for 10.5

seconds. Once the TBC is

running, and the module is

properly powered up, the follow-

ing sequence should be followed

to bring the link into full

synchronization and ready to

transmit data:

1. Both Link Unusable lines will

be driven high, by the OFC,

indicating neither receiver is

detecting a signal from the link.

2. Drive the Transmit Data lines,

Tx[00:19] to a

01010101010101010101.

3. Drive the input control lines as

follows:

• Enable Wrap: low

• Tx_SI: low

• Enable Comma Detect: high

• -Lock to Reference: high

4. Assuming the link is properly

connected, and both link ends are

in the same state of readiness, the

lasers will turn on in 10.1

seconds. This will be indicated by

the Link Unusable lines going

low. This transition indicates the

OFC is operational and in

control.

5. Once the lasers have come on,

and Link Unusable is observed to

transition low, bring -Lock to

Reference low for at least

500 µsec. This forces the module

to frequency lock to the Transmit

Byte Clock.
