General Description
The MAX3643 burst-mode laser driver provides bias and modulation current drive for PON burst-mode ONT applications. It is specifically designed for use with a low-cost external controller for the APC (and if desired, AMC) loop. A high-speed differential burst-enable input enables the driver to switch the laser from a dark (output off) condition to full on-condition in less than 2ns. When BEN is inactive, typical modulation and bias currents are 5µA each.
