摘要： The method and apparatus for compensating a photo-detector allows both regulation and monitoring of the photo-detector to be performed with a common digital controller. The controller accepts input of monitored operational parameters including received signal strength and temperature. The controller provides as an output a bias control signal which regulates a positive the positive or negative side bias voltage power supply for the photo-detector. The controller maintains the bias voltage to the photo-detector at levels which optimize the gain and signal-to-noise ratios for the photo-detector thereby facilitating the decoding of the received signal over a broad range of signal strengths and temperatures. The controller includes a corresponding digital signal strength and temperature compensators the outputs of which summed with a summer to provide the bias control signal. The digital signal strength compensator also provides as an output a monitor signal a level of which corresponds to the actual signal strength received by the photo-detector after compensation for the variable gain of the photo-detector resulting from the bias voltage level. A transceiver as well as methods and means for monitoring a photo-detector are also disclosed.

摘要： A transceiver module is provided that includes an optical subassembly having an extension with traces corresponding to traces defined on an associated transceiver substrate. A connector element including a flexible, non-electrically conductive substrate within which is disposed an array of conductors is placed between overlapping portions of the extension and the transceiver substrate so that upper ends of some of the conductors contact the traces of the extension, while lower ends of those same conductors contact the corresponding traces of the transceiver substrate. In this way, the connector element provides electrical communication between the optical subassembly and transceiver substrate, while also accommodating misalignment that may be present, or develop, in the transceiver module components.

摘要： Out-of-band data communication of diagnostic and/or configuration data is performed using transceivers in a data or communication network. A light beam or other carrier is modulated with high-speed data and out-of-band diagnostic and/or configuration data to create a double modulated data signal. A physical layer signal is created that includes modulations of the double modulated signal. The physical layer signal is transmitted onto a physical link. The diagnostic and/or configuration data can be transmitted in the out-of-band signal without substantially reducing or otherwise interfering with the transmission rate of the high-speed data.
