Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are abso-
lute stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess
of those given in the performance characteristics of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for
extended periods can adversely affect device reliability.

Mounting Instructions
Handling Precautions
Power Sequencing
The minimum fiber bend radius is 30 mm (1.18 in.).
To avoid degradation in performance, mount the mod-
ule on the board as follows:
To avoid the possibility of damage to the laser module
from power supply switching transients, follow this turn-
on sequence:
1. Place the bottom flange of the module on a flat heat
sink at least 0.5 in. x 1.180 in. (12.7 mm x 30 mm) in
size. The surface finish of the heat sink should be
better than 32 µin. (0.8 µm), and the surface flatness
must be better than 0.001 in. (25.4 µm). Using ther-
mal conductive grease is optional; however, thermal
performance can be improved by up to 5% if conduc-
tive grease is applied between the bottom flange and
the heat sink.
1. All ground connections
2. Most negative supply
3. Most positive supply
4. All remaining connections
Reverse the order for the proper turn-off sequence.
2. Mount four #2-56 screws with Fillister heads
(M2-3 mm) at the four screw-hole locations (see Out-
line Diagram). The Fillister head diameter must not
exceed 0.140 in. (3.55 mm). Do not apply more than
1 in.-lb. of torque to the screws.
Electrostatic Discharge
CAUTION:This device is susceptible to damage as
a result of electrostatic discharge.Take
proper precautions during both handling
and testing. Follow guidelines such as
JEDEC Publication No. 108-A (Dec.
1988).

Lucent employs a human-body model (HBM) for ESD-
susceptibility testing and protection-design evaluation.
ESD voltage thresholds are dependent on the critical
parameters used to define the model. A standard HBM
(resistance = 1.5 kΩ, capacitance = 100 pF) is widely
used and, therefore, can be used for comparison pur-
poses. The HBM ESD threshold presented here was
obtained using these circuit parameters:
0.140
(3.56)
0.129 (3.28) R
0.041 (1.04)
