EMCORE TTX1994
1.0 Introduction
The EMCORE TTX1994 Full Band Integrable Tunable Laser Assembly [called hereafter
the EMCORE TTX1994] can be used for Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing
(DWDM) optical transceivers and DWDM discrete line card designs.
The EMCORE TTX1994 alleviates inventory and sparing costs in high-channel-count

DWDM systems by allowing a single device to replace each of the single-channel
devices. Full-band tunable assemblies also enable system functionality such as hot
back-up and dynamic provisioning in addition to applications of optical regeneration
and wavelength conversion.
For information on the Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF) Integrable Tunable Laser
Assembly (ITLA) Multi Source Agreement (MSA) that applies to the TTX1994 Tunable
Laser, see version 1.0 of the following document the OIF-ITLA-MSA-01.1 of
November 22, 2005, which can be downloaded from the following URL:

2.0 Product Overview
The EMCORE TTX1994 integrates the EMCORE tunable laser, which consists of a cooled
external-cavity diode laser (ECDL). The ECDL uses thermally tuned etalon filters to
achieve single-mode operation at selectable wavelengths. The EMCORE tunable laser
has no moving parts and shares many design elements of standard Distributed
Feedback Lasers (DFB).
The EMCORE TTX1994 has low Relative Intensity Noise (RIN), a high Side-Mode
Suppression Ratio (SMSR), a narrow linewidth, and excellent wavelength accuracy. The
product complies with the stringent requirements of 300-pin Multi-Source Agreement
(MSA) transponders and discrete line cards.
The EMCORE TTX1994 allows full control and monitoring (as defined in the OIF-ITLA-
MSA) through a LVTTL RS-232 serial interface. The tunable assembly has a typical
power dissipation of 3.5 W, with an end-of-life maximum of 5W. Available features
include Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) suppression dithering, TxTrace, off-grid
tuning, and in-operation adjustable transmit output power.
For health monitoring, fault detection, and intervention designs, the EMCORE TTX1994
fully implements monitors and alarms typically found on 300-pin transponders (for
wavelength, temperature, power and bias).
The following operating specifications were used in the design of this product:
ITU-T G.692
Telcordia GR-253
Telcordia GR-63 CORE NEBS
Telcordia GR-468 CORE

4.0 Operating Specifications
The EMCORE TTX1994 is designed for metro and long haul DWDM applications at user-
defined grid spacing down to 25GHz. The performance of the laser allows high-
performance, extended transmission distances depending on the modulation format,
optical amplifier noise figure, amplifier spacing, dispersion map, and other link design
factors. Table 3 through Table 7 list the operating specifications.

5.0 Register Summary

The TTX1994 Tunable Laser largely follows the MSA specification for the ITLA command
set. However, it does have some specific commands that are not part of the MSA. In
addition, several MSA commands that are not relevant are not supported and bit 26 of
the host-bound-packet is always 0.
Table 8 is a register summary that lists and summarizes the difference between the
MSA commands and those that the TTX1994 Tunable Laser uses. For details, see the
OIF ITLA MSA referenced in Section 1.0, Introduction on page 5.
Codes used in the table include the following:

EMCORE TTX1994
6.0 Overview of External Cavity Diode Laser Design

The EMCORE TTX1994 design consists of an external cavity diode laser (ECDL), a block
diagram is shown in Figure 3. This figure is the same as Figure 1. (it is repeated here
as a convenience for the reader). The ECDL is wholly mounted on a ceramic platform,
placed on a thermo-electric cooler (TEC) within a 30-pin butterfly package.
The ECDL can be considered as two blocks, a tuning optics block and a DFB-like optics
block.
The DFB-like optics block comprises the laser diode gain chip and an output
collimating lens, a combination beam splitter and photodiode, an isolator, and a
fiber-focusing lens, which focuses light into the polarization-preserving fiber pigtail.
The tuning optics block comprises a back cavity mirror, a pair of thermally tuned
filters, and an intracavity collimating lens that together facilitate tuning the optical
wavelength.
The InGaAsP/InP gain chip is actively cooled through a TEC (not shown in the figure).
The diode gain chip is coupled to the external cavity with an intracavity collimating
lens. The external optical cavity is bounded by the back cavity mirror and the distal
facet of the diode gain chip. In turn, the diode gain chip, which is partially reflective,
couples light out towards the polarization-preserving fiber pigtail. Reflection from the
diode gain chip output facet is effectively eliminated with an anti-reflection (AR)
coating. The thermally tuned filter pair restricts laser oscillation to the desired
wavelength.
Note: There are no moving parts within the design. The EMCORE TTX1994 is comparable in
part count and assembly complexity to standard distributed feedback lasers (DFB).

is coated with an anti-reflection coating on the cavity-side facet so as to transmit light into the external laser cavity.
