Mindspeed Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:MSPD), a leading
supplier of semiconductor solutions for network infrastructure
applications, today announced the M02150 burst-mode driver chipset
family that features a programmable 3.1Gbps dual-closed-loop burst
mode laser driver integrated with an 11.3Gbps limiting amplifier
for next-generation gigabit passive optical network (XG-PON1)
networks. The highly integrated solution features power-saving
sleep and current reduction modes in a compact 4x4 mm package.
The new M02150 device can be used with companion Mindspeed
solutions on the optical line termination (OLT) chipsets side to
create end-to-end uplink and downlink solutions either in
traditional optical modules or interfaced to bidirectional optical
subassemblies (BOSAs) that can be mounted directly onto the XG-PON1
optical networking unit (ONU) or OLT board to significantly reduce
overall bill-of-material (BOM) costs.
Mindspeed will be demonstrating the M02150 XG-PON1 ONU chipset
family along with a broad offering of XG-PON1 OLT solutions at The
Optical Fiber Communication Conference and Exposition and the
National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference (OFC/NFOEC 2012), from
March 6-8, 2012, in booth #1761/173 at the Los Angeles Convention
Center. XG-PON1 OLT solutions that will be demonstrated will
include the M02035 2.5Gbps burst-mode transimpedance amplifier
(TIA) and M02172 11.3Gbps electro-absorption modulated laser (EML)
driver.
“Mindspeed continues to lead the optical networking industry to
higher data rates and more economical system architectures and
deployment models for fiber-to-the-x (FTTx) multi-play services,”
said Hasnain Bajwa, senior vice president and general manager, high
performance analog (HPA) at Mindspeed. “Our M02150 chipset family
offers low-power consumption, performance monitoring, and
dual-closed-loop laser driver operation in a small, low-cost
package. This complete chipset solution will accelerate the
adoption of next generation XG-PON1 networks by enabling
multiservice access equipment to handle higher data rates and more
broadband users.”
Mindspeed has worked with optical component leader CyOptics to
create a complete BOSA-on-board reference design that seamlessly
integrates CyOptics’ XG-PON1 ONU BOSA with the M02150/51 XG-PON1
driver chipset.
“This is another important milestone in our product development
achievements with Mindspeed,” said Kou-Wei Wang, vice president and
general manager for the OEM business at CyOptics. “Our two
companies have once again forged new ground in optical networking
technology with a BOSA-on-board solution that will play an integral
role in XG-PON1 network deployments.”
Technical Details
Mindspeed®’s M02150 burst-mode driver chipset family features an
integrated 11.3Gbps continuous-mode limiting amplifier with output
de-emphasis compensation for high-frequency transmission line loss.
The company is also introducing a second, M02151 driver that adds
integrated, electrically erasable programmable read-only memory
(EEPROM), which is used to store calibration and performance
settings and can support more than one million write cycles. This
feature reduces overall system cost and optimizes the driver for
economical BOSA-on-board designs by supporting multiple
re-calibrations, and enables it to operate without external control
or under the control of an external microcontroller or media access
control (MAC) device. CyOptics also offers a XG-PON1 OLT BOSA that
interfaces with these devices in an OLT module.
Product Availability
The M02150 burst-mode driver family and M02035 and M02172 OLT
chipset are available now. They can be used in both 10G-GPON -
XGPON1/ITU G.987.2 and 10G-Ethernet passive optical network
(EPON)-10G/ 1GBase-PRX applications.
