Table 5. EEPROM Serial ID Memory Contents – Soft Commands (Address A2h, byte 110)
Bit # Status / Control name Description Notes
7 TX_DISABLE State Digital state of TX_DISABLE input pin (logic 1 = TX_DISABLE asserted) Note 1
6 Soft TX_DISABLE Read/write bit for changing digital state of TX_DISABLE function Note 1,2
5 Reserved Note 3
4 Not supported Note 4
3 Not supported Note 5
2 Not supported Note 6
1 RX_SD State Digital state of the RX_SD output pin (logic 0 = RX_SD asserted) Note 1
0 Data Ready (Bar) Indicates transceiver is powered and real time sense data is ready(0 = ready) Note 7
Notes:
1. The response time for soft commands of the AFBR-5978Z is 100 ms as specied by the MSA SFF-8472.
2. Bit 6 is logic OR’d with the TX_DISABLED input pin. Either asserted will disable the transmitter.
3. Reserved bits will return “0” when read. A write to a reserved bit will be acknowledged but not stored.
4. A read from bit 4 will return “1”. A write will be acknowledged but not stored.
5. A read/write from/to bit 3 will be acknowledged and stored but will be ignored by the transceiver.
6. A read from bit 2 will return “0”. A write will be acknowledged but not stored.
7. AFBR-5978Z meets the MSA SFF-8471 data ready timing of 1000 ms.
Table 6. EEPROM Serial ID Memory Contents – Alarm and Warnings (Address A2h, bytes 112, 113, 116, 117)
Byte Bit Flag bit name Description
112 7 Temp high alarm Set when transceiver internal temperature exceeds high alarm threshold
6 Temp low alarm Set when transceiver internal temperature exceeds low alarm threshold
5 Vcc high alarm Set when transceiver internal supply voltage exceeds high alarm threshold
4 Vcc low alarm Set when transceiver internal supply voltage exceeds low alarm threshold
3-0 Reserved Note 1
113 7-6 Reserved Note 1
5 Rx OMA Margin low alarm Set when received Rx OMA Margin exceeds low alarm threshold, Note 2
4-0 Reserved Note 1
116 7 Temp high warning Set when transceiver internal temperature exceeds high warning threshold
6 Temp low warning Set when transceiver internal temperature exceeds low warning threshold
5 Vcc high warning Set when transceiver internal supply voltage exceeds high warning threshold
4 Vcc low warning Set when transceiver internal supply voltage exceeds low warning threshold
3-0 Reserved Note 1
117 7-6 Reserved Note 1
5 Rx OMA Margin low warning Set when receiver Rx OMA Margin exceeds low warning threshold, Note 2
4-0 Reserved Note 1
Notes:
1. Reserved bits will return “0” when read. A write to a reserved bit will be acknowledged but not stored.
2. Received optical modulation amplitude margin or Rx OMA margin is a measure for the reserve in OMA to Sensitivity.
