ADN2892 Data Sheet THEORY OF OPERATION LIMITING AMPLIFIER RECEIVED SIGNAL STRENGTH INDICATOR (RSSI) Input Buffer
The ADN2892 has an on-chip, RSSI circuit. By monitoring the The ADN2892 limiting amplifier provides differential inputs current supplied to the photodiode, the RSSI circuit provides an (PIN/NIN), each with a single-ended, on-chip 50 Ω termination. accurate, average power measurement. The output of the RSSI is a The amplifier can accept either dc-coupled or ac-coupled signals; current that is directly proportional to the average amount of PIN however, an ac-coupled signal is recommended. Using a dc- photodiode current. Placing a resistor between the RSSI_OUT pin coupled signal, the amplifier needs a nominal VCC − 0.7 V and GND converts the current to a GND referenced voltage. This common-mode voltage and ±0.5 V headroom. If the input function eliminates the need for external RSSI circuitry for SFF- common-mode voltage is 2.4 V, the available headroom is reduced 8472-compliant optical receivers. For more information, see down to ±0.3 V. Figure 12 to Figure 16. The ADN2892 limiting amplifier is a high gain device.

Driving the BW_SEL input The threshold level can be set anywhere from 3.5 mV p-p to signal to logic low, the amplifier accepts input signals through a 35 mV p-p typical by a resistor connected between the 1.5 GHz, 2-pole, low-pass filter that improves receiving THRADJ pin and VEE. See Figure 6 and Figure 7 for the LOS sensitivity. threshold vs. THRADJ. The ADN2892 LOS circuit has an electrical hysteresis greater than 2.5 dB to prevent chatter at the The low-pass filter reduces the possible relaxation oscillation of LOS signal.

The BW_SEL pin has a 100 kΩ, on-chip pul -up resistor. Setting the BW_SEL pin open disables the low-pass filter.
LOS_INV (LOSE OF SIGNAL_INVERT) MODE
Some applications, such as SFF, need the LOS assertion and deassertion voltage reversed. When the LOS_INV pin is pul ed to logic high, the LOS output assertion is pulled down to electrical low. The LOS_INV pin has a 100 kΩ on-chip, pul -down resistor. Rev.
