Product details

4.25 Gbps laser driver for SFP and SFF modules

The MAX3738ETG+T is a single-channel laser diode driver from Analog Devices, designed to drive common-cathode FP/DFB lasers in SFP, SFF, and GBIC fiber-optic transceiver modules up to 4.25 Gbps.

RoHS3 compliant (2011/65/EU + 2015/863), with no exemptions claimed. The lead-free finish and halogen-free molding compound meet the common environmental requirements for telecom and networking equipment.

Sourcing and supply posture

Sourced through authorized and independent distribution channels; lead time and volume pricing confirmed at RFQ against the BOM line quantity. No minimum order threshold beyond the reel increment.

Frequently asked questions

What supply voltage does MAX3738ETG+T need?

The 47 mA supply current plus the modulation current draw must be budgeted in the transceiver's power allocation.

What package does MAX3738ETG+T come in?

It is supplied in a 24-lead TQFN (4x4 mm) with an exposed pad, on tape and reel (TR) or cut tape (CT).

What compliance documentation does Analog Devices provide for MAX3738ETG+T?

Analog Devices provides RoHS3 compliance (2011/65/EU + 2015/863) documentation. The part is lead-free and halogen-free. No UL or IEC certification is listed for this component.
