AN # Description
5342 General information about the SFH series
with Selection Guide and recommendations
regarding System Planning and Mounting
5341 Information about Basic and Special Circuits for
Transmitter and Receiver of the SFH series
Description
The SFH551/1-1 receiver is a transimpedance ampli er
with an integrated photodiode and TTL open-collector
output stage. The active area of this detector combined
with the molded microlens gives an e cient coupling
from the end of the polymer optical  ber. This receiver
enables data rates up to 5 MBd and works with the Avago
SFH757 transmitter diode.
The SFH551/1-1 is fully DC coupled and therefore no
line code is needed. The internal Schmitt trigger ensures
stable output states over the whole dynamic range. If
light with intensity above the threshold level is coupled
into the SFH551/1-1, the electrical output will be logical
“low and vice versa.
With noisefree Vcc and GND, an unde ned output signal
is not possible. Nevertheless, the SFH551/1-1 must not
be used without shielding from ambient light. If ambient
light could reach the threshold level, the SFH551/1-1V
component should be chosen. The plastic connector
housing of the SFH V-series shields the ambient light
perfectly.
SFH series components are optimized for easy coupling.
No  ber stripping is required; just insert the cut  ber into
the selected SFH component.

SFH551/1-1
The transparent plastic package has an aperture where a
2.2 mm  ber end can be inserted. This coupling method
is very easy and extremely cost-e ective.
SFH551/1-1V
The V-housing allows easy coupling of unconnectorized
2.2 mm polymer optical  ber by an axial locking screw.
The SFH551/1-1 receiver is a transimpedance ampli er
with a TTL open-collector output stage, therefore a
pull-up resistor of at least 330 Ω is necessary (see Figure
1). To minimize interference a bypass capacitor (100 nF)
must be placed near (distance ≤ 3 cm) the SFH551/1-1
ports. In critical applications a shorter distance is better.
Functionality
The SFH551/1-1 photodiode is silicon based and directly
connected to a transimpedance ampli er that works as
a pre-ampli er. A di erential ampli er is connected in
series and works as a post-ampli er. Its output is passed
to the internal Schmitt trigger that drives a bipolar NPN
transistor. The data-out signal is from the collector of this
bipolar transistor.

Package V-housing Color
SFH V-series components are color coded just like other
Avago  ber optic components. The SFH757V transmitter
has a white colored housing; the SFH250V and SFH551/1-
1V receiver components have a black colored housing.
This prevents mistakes while making connections.
Product designation and date of manufacture are printed
on the housing.
Package V-housing mounting pins
SFH V-series components have two pins that are electri-
cally isolated from the inner circuit. The pins are only
designed for mounting the V-housing to the PCB surface.
This helps increase stability, which is needed during
xing the  ber end by the axial locking screw.
The retention force between the soldered mounting pins
and the V-housing of the SFH component is about 20 N
(with a vertical exertion of force). This is an approximate
value.
Package V-housing axial locking screw
Components of the SFH V-series are equipped with an
axial locking screw for easy coupling to the unconnec-
torized 2.2 mm polymer optical  ber. The force that is
necessary to pull a jammed  ber out of the V-housing is
typically 50 N (with a torque of 15 cNm for tightening the
locking screw). This is an approximate value that is very
dependent on the  ber and torque combination.
