The DS4830 provides a complete optical control, calibra-tion, and monitor solution based on a low-power, 16-bit, microcontroller core, providing program and RAM data memory. This article describes Maxim's microcontroller to design an optical module which is an essential part of fiber optic communication. 5G is a hot topic nowadays, and the arrival of 5G foreshadows a new era of the "Internet of Things. Whether you are creating a 100-Gbps or 400-Gbps, small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module, SFP+ transceiver, XFP module, CFP, X2/XENPAK module. BlazingFast Photonics delivers high-speed optical transceivers, silicon photonics, co-packaged optics, OSFP 1. 6T modules, laser drivers, TIAs, DFB lasers, VCSEL arrays, and LPO solutions for data cent. A picture of the fully loaded board is shown on the next page.
