Introduction
Fiber optic cables have historically been used when the
distance is too long, or the data rate is too high, for the
limited bandwidth of wire. Optical communication links
are also favored when the environment through which the
data will pass is electrically noisy, or when electromagnetic
radiation from wire cables is a concern. Optical fibers have
numerous technical advantages over conventional wire
alternatives, but the cost of fiber optic solutions has always
been higher until now.
The Inherent Disadvantages of Wire
Systems which must communicate are often connected
to different reference potentials which are not necessarily
zero volts, or in other situations ground references that are
thought to be 0 V are electrically noisy. Metallic connections
between systems with different ground potentials can be
implemented by using the proper isolation and grounding
techniques, but if these techniques are not strictly adhered
to conductive cables will introduce conflicts between
systems operating at different ground potentials. Data
communication system designers must exercise caution to
ensure that conductive cables do not exceed radiated noise
limits established by the FCC, and cable installers need to
route wire cables away from other power conductors that
might couple electrical noise into the data by magnetic
induction. Conventional wire transmission lines must also
be terminated using a load resistor equal to the charac-
teristic impedance of the metallic cable. This termination
resistor must always be connected to the receiving end
of every wire cable to ensure that pulses are not reflected
back toward the data source causing interference with the
transmitted data.
Fundamental Advantages of Optical Communication
Non-conductive optical cables have none of the traditional
problems associated with wire. When using a fiber optic
solution, system designers do not need to be concerned
about environmental noise coupling into cables, or worry
about whether there is a termination resistor at the end of
the cable. Conflicts between systems with different refer-
ence potentials do not happen when using insulating fiber
optic media because optical cables do not have conductors
or shields that can be improperly grounded when the
cables are installed or maintained. The fiber optic receiver
is the only portion of the optical link which is sensitive to
noise, and it can easily be protected because it is contained
within the host system which is receiving the data. A simple
power supply filter is usually sufficient to protect the fiber
optic receiver from the host system’s electrical noise. Elec-
trostatic shielding can be applied to the receiver if the host
system is particularly noisy, but electrostatic shields are
not needed in most applications if the circuit techniques
recommended in this application note are used.
A Fiber Optic Solution at Wire Prices
The traditional argument for using copper wire has always
been that fiber optic solutions cost more, but Avago Tech-
nologies’ Versatile Link components now enable system
designers to overcome cost barriers that have historically
prevented the use of fiber optic cables in short distance
applications. The HFBR-15X7Z LED transmitter and the
HFBR-25X6Z receiver can be used with large diameter
1 mm plastic or 200 µm Hard Clad Silica (HCS
fibers to build unusually low cost data communication
equipment. The fiber optic solution described in this
application note can transmit data at rates up to 125 MBd
for the same price as shielded twisted pair wire, but this
unusually low cost optical data link has none of the disad-
vantages that are inherent to wire cables.

... AC-coupled fiber optic receivers tend to be lower in cost, are much easier to design, and contain fewer compo- nents than their DC-coupled counterparts. The output of the HFBR-25X6Z should not be direct cou- pled to the amplifier and comparator shown in Figure 3. Direct coupling decreases the sensitivity of a digital fiber optic receiver, since it allows low-frequency flicker noise from transistor amplifiers to be presented to the receiver’ ...
