Notes:
1. For I
FPK
> 100 mA, the time duration should not exceed 2 ns.
2. Typical data at T
A
= 25°C.
3. Thermal resistance is measured with the transmitter coupled to a connector assembly and mounted on a printed circuit board.
4. D is measured at the plane of the fiber face and defines a diameter where the optical power density is within 10 dB of the maximum.
5. P
T
is measured with a large area detector at the end of 1 meter of mode stripped cable, with an ST
®
precision ceramic ferrule (MIL-STD-83522/13)
for HFBR-1412/1414, and with an SMA 905 precision ceramic ferrule for HFBR-1402/1404.
6. When changing µW to dBm, the optical power is referenced to 1 mW (1000 µW). Optical Power P (dBm) = 10 log P (µW)/1000 µW.
7. Pre-bias is recommended if signal rate >10 MBd, see recommended drive circuit in Figure 11.
8. Pins 2, 6, and 7 are welded to the anode header connection to minimize the thermal resistance from junction to ambient. To further reduce the
thermal resistance, the anode trace should be made as large as is consistent with good RF circuit design.
9. Fiber NA is measured at the end of 2 meters of mode stripped fiber, using the far-field pattern. NA is defined as the sine of the half angle,
determined at 5% of the peak intensity point. When using other manufacturer’s fiber cable, results will vary due to differing NA values and
specification methods.
All HFBR-14XX LED transmitters are classified as IEC 825-1 Accessible Emission Limit (AEL)
Class 1 based upon the current proposed draft scheduled to go in to effect on January 1, 1997.
AEL Class 1 LED devices are considered eye safe. Contact your Avago sales representative for
more information.
CAUTION: The small junction sizes inherent to the design of these components increase the components’
susceptibility to damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD). It is advised that normal static precautions be
taken in handling and assembly of these components to prevent damage and/or degradation which may be
induced by ESD.

Recommended Drive Circuits
The circuit used to supply current
to the LED transmitter can
significantly influence the optical
switching characteristics of the
LED. The optical rise/fall times
and propagation delays can be
improved by using the appro-
priate circuit techniques. The
LED drive circuit shown in
Figure 11 uses frequency com-
pensation to reduce the typical
rise/fall times of the LED and a
small pre-bias voltage to minimize
propagation delay differences
that cause pulse-width distortion.
The circuit will typically produce
rise/fall times of 3 ns, and a total
jitter including pulse-width dis-
tortion of less than 1 ns. This
circuit is recommended for appli-
cations requiring low edge jitter
or high-speed data transmission
at signal rates of up to 155 MBd.
Component values for this circuit
can be calculated for different
LED drive currents using the
equations shown below. For
additional details about LED
drive circuits, the reader is
encouraged to read Avago

Application Note 1038.
