3、tween manufacturers and purchasers, facilitating interchangeability and improvement of products, and assisting the purchaser in selecting and obtaining with minimum delay the proper product for his particular need. Existence of such Standards and Publications shall not in any respect preclude any me

4、mber or nonmember of TIA/EIA from manufacturing or selling products not conforming to such Standards and Publications, nor shall the existence of such Standards and Publications preclude their voluntary use by those other than TIA/EIA members, whether the standard is to be used either domestically o

5、r internationally. Standards and Publications are adopted by TIA/EIA in accordance with the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) patent policy. By such action, TIA/EIA does not assume any liability to any patent owner, nor does it assume any obligation whatever to parties adopting the Standa

6、rd or Publication. This Standard does not purport to address all safety problems associated with its use or all applicable regulatory requirements. It is the responsibility of the user of this Standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulat

7、ory limitations before its use. (From Standards Proposal No. 4592, formulated under the cognizance of the TIA FO-2.6 Subcommittee on Reliability of Fiber Optic Systems this includes pump lasers, direct and externally modulated lasers for both digital and analog applications. Also, this test is inten

8、ded for sub-mounted (unpackaged) devices. 1.3 Background Semiconductor lasers are commonly prone to gradual degradation mechanisms that are accelerated by both temperature and optical power. Present day lasers have median lifetimes of several years even at elevated temperatures. However, devices may

9、 have material and structural defects, therefore careful purge and burn-in procedures and screening tests should be employed to eliminate potentially unreliable product from the device population. 1.4 Hazards Eye Safey Warning Care should be exercised to avoid possible eye damage from looking into t

10、he end of an energized fiber from a laser source. Especially, personnel should avoid looking into any energized fiber using any type of magnification device. 1.5 Summary The laser diode is thermally, electrically, and mechanically attached to a mount/submount/header which has had its parameters char

11、acterized.

12、ions back into the laser diode. The laser diode is driven in a Continuous Wave (CW) DC mode of operation at a specified laser facet power and at a specified laser submount temperature. The laser diode is driven either with an Automatic Power Control (APC) circuit in which the facet power is maintain

13、ed at a constant value, or with an Automatic Current Control (ACC) circuit in which the laser diode current is maintained at a constant value. Measurements of the specified device parameters should be performed periodically at room temperature (23 C +/-2 C). This data will be the basis for producing

14、 a set of descriptive reliability parameters for the product population, including the median degradation rate and lognormal standard deviation of the monitored parameter degradation rate. Care should be taken so the test atmosphere does not affect the laser diode. 2 Applicable documents Test of ins

18、for the duration of the test. Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of the temperature measurements points. Figure 1. Schematic of a Typical Laser Test Configuration 3.2 Control Circuitry The laser diode control circuit shall drive the laser bias in one of the following modes: Method A Automatic Power

19、Control (APC) Method B Automatic Current Control (ACC) Copyright Telecommunications Industry Association Provided by IHS under license with EIANot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-TIA/EIA-455-130 6The preferred method of control is the APC mode since the

20、 device is typically operated in that fashion in use conditions. A photo detector is required to monitor the laser facet power level to provide feedback in the APC control mode. It is recommended that the control circuit for the device include protection features such as current limits, soft start c

21、ircuitry, ESD protection, and isolation, both electrically and thermally, from neighboring devices. 3.3 Optical Detectors The optical detectors for monitoring the facet output power over time shall be appropriate for the specific application. 3.4 Characterization Test Set A test set capable of measu

22、ring the required parameters in-situ shall be available to characterize the laser at specified intervals during the test. 4 Sampling Specimens are selected by a random sampling so as to represent the standard manufactured product. Appropriate handling precautions shall be used. The minimum sample si

23、ze for an aging study is 10 devices for 10,000 hours. Otherwise, the minimum sample shall be 25 devices. Larger sample sizes are recommended for improved confidence in the estimated reliability calculations. 5 Procedure 5.1 Initial Characterization The laser diode shall be fully tested in accordance

24、 with the detailed test specification. The laser diode shall be initially tested on a calibrated test set traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). This test set shall be available upon the completion of the aging test. This test is a complete characterization of the device

25、 in accordance with aforementioned detailed test specification and is typically only done before and after the aging test.

Thermal compound may be required to provide

27、 adequate contact to the heat sink fixture. The laser diode shall be biased to the specified operating point. The device and heat sink/source shall be brought to thermal equilibrium at the specified heat sink temperature. The device shall be operated isothermally in a DC mode and data acquired at sp

28、ecified time intervals. If only one facet is in-situ monitored, either the facet with the highest light level or the facet to be coupled to the optical fiber shall be monitored. As a minimum the following parameters shall be measured at specified intervals (not less than one measurement every 24 hou

29、rs): If Laser forward current Pa Facet a power level Pb Facet b power level Tdevice Device Temperature time Time under test The complete list of parameters to be measured shall be specified in the appropriate detail test specification. The device temperature, Tdevice, should be measured as close to

30、the laser diode as possible, and it is advantageous to measure the temperature of each device under test. 5.3 Final characterization The laser shall be removed from the aging rack after the required length of time. If the in-situ data acquisition method is used, a final data point shall be recorded

31、before removing the laser from the aging rack. The device shall be retested using the same test set as used for the initial test, along with the same set of controls or standards, if functional performance data other than the degradation parameters are required. 5.4 Measurements The appropriate numb

32、er of points to be taken during the duration of the test shall be Copyright Telecommunications Industry Association Provided by IHS under license with EIANot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-TIA/EIA-455-130 8sufficient to perform a linear regression fit

33、of the monitored parameter vs time and obtain an estimate of the degradation rate for each device. The determination of the number of data points to take during the life test should take into account the noise of the measurement, and noise of the control circuitry, such that a low aging rate can be

34、resolved. 5.5 Test Conditions The test shall be performed according to Table 1, below, for the duration at the temperature specified under the specific condition.
