Instructions for Use

1. Power Supply:

   • Ensure the supply voltage (VCC) is within the specified range of 3.15 V to 3.63 V.
   • Use a stable power source to avoid voltage fluctuations.

2. Temperature Considerations:

   • Operate the device within the ambient temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
   • Ensure proper cooling or heat dissipation mechanisms are in place to maintain optimal operating temperatures.

3. Data Rate:

   • The device supports a maximum data rate of 1.25 Gbps. Ensure that the system clock and data rates are configured accordingly.

4. Signal Integrity:

   • Use differential signaling with a characteristic impedance of 100 Ω to minimize signal reflections and crosstalk.
   • Keep signal traces as short as possible to reduce signal loss and ensure signal integrity.

5. Fiber Connection:

   • Connect the device using an LC Duplex connector.
   • Use single-mode fiber (SMF) for distances up to 10 km.
   • Ensure the fiber is clean and properly terminated to avoid signal degradation.

6. Power Consumption:

   • The typical power consumption is 150 mW. Ensure that the power supply can handle this load without overheating.

7. Standards Compliance:

   • The device complies with IEEE 802.3z, 802.3ae, and 802.3af standards. Verify that your system meets these standards for interoperability.

8. ESD Protection:

   • Handle the device with care to avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD).
   • Use ESD protection measures such as wrist straps and grounded work surfaces when handling the device.

9. Reliability:

   • The device has a mean time between failures (MTBF) of over 500,000 hours. Regular maintenance and proper usage will help ensure long-term reliability.

10. Storage and Handling:

    • Store the device in a dry, cool environment to prevent damage from moisture and temperature extremes.
    • Handle the device by the edges to avoid applying pressure to sensitive components.
