Product details

1.25 Gbps laser driver for SFP and fiber-optic modules

The MAX3286CGI from Analog Devices is a single-channel laser diode driver designed for fiber-optic transceiver modules operating at 1.25 Gbps. It delivers a modulation current of 30 mA, sufficient to bias common Fabry-Perot and DFB laser diodes in short-reach and metro SFP applications.

The MAX3286CGI is listed as Active in Analog Devices' product portfolio. The part is RoHS non-compliant per the original release — confirm your assembly line's exemption status for lead-bearing finishes before committing the BOM.

Frequently asked questions

What supply voltage and current does the MAX3286CGI require?
