No Crystal Required
reliance on external components such as a crystal or a SAW
filter, to aid frequency acquisition.
The AD807 acquires frequency and phase lock on input data
using two control loops that work without requiring external
control. The frequency acquisition control loop initially acquires
the frequency of the input data, acquiring frequency lock on
random or scrambled data without the need for a preamble. At
frequency lock, the frequency error is zero and the frequency
detector has no further effect. The phase acquisition control
loop then works to ensure that the output phase tracks the input
phase. A patented phase detector has virtually eliminated pattern
jitter throughout the AD807.
Quantizer Sensitivity: 2 mV
Level Detect Range: 2.0 mV to 30 mV
Single Supply Operation: +5 V or –5.2 V
Low Power: 170 mW
The device VCO uses a ring oscillator architecture and patented
low noise design techniques. Jitter is 2.0 degrees rms. This low
jitter results from using a fully differential signal architecture,
Power Supply Rejection Ratio circuitry and a dielectrically
isolated process that provides immunity from extraneous signals
on the IC. The device can withstand hundreds of millivolts of
power supply noise without an effect on jitter performance.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD807 provides the receiver functions of data quantization,
signal level detect, clock recovery and data retiming for 155 Mbps
NRZ data. The device, together with a PIN diode/preamplifier
combination, can be used for a highly integrated, low cost, low
power SONET OC-3 or SDH STM-1 fiber optic receiver.
The user sets the jitter peaking and acquisition time of the PLL
by choosing a damping factor capacitor whose value determines
loop damping. CCITT G.958 Type A jitter transfer require-
ments can easily be met with a damping factor of 5 or greater.
The receiver front end signal level detect circuit indicates when
the input signal level has fallen below a user adjustable thresh-
old. The threshold is set with a single external resistor. The
signal level detect circuit 3 dB optical hysteresis prevents chatter
at the signal level detect output.
Device design guarantees that the clock output frequency will
drift by less than 20% in the absence of input data transitions.
Shorting the damping factor capacitor, CD, brings the clock
output frequency to the VCO center frequency.
The AD807 consumes 170 mW and operates from a single
power supply at either +5 V or –5.2 V.
The PLL has a factory-trimmed VCO center frequency and a
frequency acquisition control loop that combine to guarantee
frequency acquisition without false lock. This eliminates a
