6. Vibration and shock
Resin-molded optical modules are plastic-sealed devices whose wires are fixed with resin. While this structure makes them comparatively
resistant to vibration and shock, wire breakage has been observed in equipment in which the soldering and connections are exposed to
vibration, shock or stress. Therefore, when using a plastic-molded optical module in equipment with high vibration levels, ensure that the
structure is designed to withstand vibration, shock and stress.
Ceramic-package optical modules are ceramic-sealed, with a hollow interior. Since the wires in the module are not fixed, the module is
susceptible to vibration and shock.
Therefore, when using a ceramic-package optical module in equipment which is subject to high levels of vibration and shock, ensure that the
structure of the equipment is designed to withstand vibration, shock and stress.
7. Support Pins
The support pins of an optical module must be soldered onto a printed circuit board.
8. Shielding and Board Traces
To provide a shielding effect, the support pins of optical receiver and transceiver modules must be grounded.
Also, for optical receiver and transceiver modules are housed in a conductive resin case, care should be taken so that it will not touch any board
trace or land.
9. Solvent
When using solvent for flux removal, do not use a strongly acidic or alkaline solvent. Be careful not to pour solvent into the optical connector
ports. If solvent has inadvertently been poured into them, clean it off using cotton-tipped swab.
10. Protective Cap
When the optical module is not in use, cover it with the protective cap.
11. Incidence of a Photo Flash
If strong light such as a photo flash is incident on an optical module, a transmission error may occur. Be careful to avoid such situations.
12. Supply Voltage
Modules should be used with a supply voltage within the standard operating conditions. Ensure that the power supply does not exceed the rated
absolute maximum voltage of 6 V even momentarily.
13. Input Voltage
If a voltage exceeding the absolute maximum rating (V
+ 0.5 V) is applied to the transmitter input, the internal IC may be adversely affected or
CC
destroyed. If there is a possibility of excessive input voltage due to a surge, for example, add a protective circuit to the input.
14. Output
Note that internal ICs can be damaged when the receiver output is low and the output is shorted to the power supply, or when output is high and
is shorted to GND.
15. Soldering condition
Solder at 260°C or less for no more than ten seconds.
16. Disposal Precautions
TOSLINK devices and packaging materials must be disposed of by the user as industrial waste products in an environmentally appropriate way
and in accordance with the law.
