Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of radio frequency fiber optic transmission technology, specifically to an external modulator bias voltage forced reset device and reset method. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of analog signal fiber optic transmission technology, the frequency of transmitted signals is getting higher and higher. The frequency currently used has reached the Ka band. In these frequency bands, the commonly used electro-optic modulation device is the intensity external modulator. The bias point of the intensity modulator changes continuously with temperature. Therefore, it is necessary to control the bias voltage of the external modulator. An important function of the external modulator bias voltage control system is to force the bias voltage to reset, prevent the bias voltage from drifting out of the system's maximum and minimum control voltage range, and ensure the stable operation of the system.

[0003] Currently, the most common reset method involves a microcontroller monitoring the bias voltage. When the voltage exceeds the maximum bias range provided by the system, a forced reset command is sent to the system to reset the bias voltage. The biggest drawback of this method is the complexity of the microcontroller and its peripheral circuits, which hinders miniaturization and integration. Furthermore, the microcontroller requires a crystal oscillator to provide a frequency source, making it difficult to eliminate the introduced frequency signals, which can interfere with the signals to be transmitted.

[0013] A method for forcibly resetting the bias voltage of an external modulator, comprising the aforementioned device for forcibly resetting the bias voltage of an external modulator, the method comprising the following steps: 1) The external modulator bias voltage forced reset device receives the status signal DT, integrates the status signal DT, and outputs the integrated voltage in three ports, which are respectively given to the positive voltage reset channel and connected to the first comparator, the external modulator bias control, and the negative voltage reset channel and connected to the third comparator. 2) The voltage across resistor R8 is approximately 4.55V. The first comparator determines whether the first integrating output voltage is greater than 4.55V. When the integrating voltage is greater than 4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2A outputs +5V. Since the diode voltage difference is 0.7V, the first comparator outputs +4.3V. When the integrator voltage is less than 4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2A outputs -5V. Because the first comparator has a voltage output when the forward voltage of diode D1 is greater than +0.7V, the first comparator and the second integrator are effectively disconnected at this time. 3) The second integrator integrates the output voltage of the first comparator. When the first comparator outputs a high level of +4.3V, the second integrator begins to integrate, meaning its output voltage begins to decrease. Since the voltage across resistor R3 is approximately -2.5V, when the second integrator's output voltage is less than -2.5V, the second comparator's output level +NS is 0V. When the first comparator has no output voltage, the second integrator's input is -5V due to the pull-down resistor R4. At this time, the second integrator integrates -5V, meaning its output voltage begins to increase. When the second integrator's output voltage is greater than -2.5V, the second comparator's output level +NS is +5V. 4) Resistor R 19The voltage at the top is approximately -4.55V. The third comparator determines whether the first integral output voltage is less than -4.55V. When the second integral voltage is less than -4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2B outputs a level of -5V. Since the voltage difference between the diodes is 0.7V, the third comparator outputs a level of -4.3V. When the second integral voltage is greater than -4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2B outputs a level of +5V. Because the third comparator has a voltage output when the reverse voltage of diode D2 is less than -0.7V, the third comparator and the third integrator are effectively disconnected at this time. 5) The third comparator has two output states. The first state is -4.3V, and the second state is a high-impedance disconnected state with no voltage output. In the first state, when the third comparator outputs -4.3V, the third integrator begins to integrate, and its output voltage begins to increase. When the third integrator output voltage is greater than +2.5V, the fourth comparator output level -NS is 0V. In the second state, when the third comparator has no voltage output, due to the pull-up resistor R15 of the second comparator, the input of the second integrator is +5V. At this time, the third integrator integrates +5V, and its output voltage begins to decrease. When the third integrator output voltage is less than +2.5V, the fourth comparator output level -NS is -5V. 6) The power supply terminals 8 and 4 of the operational amplifier in the first integrator are powered by the output terminals of the second and fourth comparators, respectively. When the output voltage V of the first integrator... b Satisfying -4.55V < V b When the voltage is < +4.55V, the output voltage of the second comparator (+NS) is +5V, and the output voltage of the fourth comparator (-NS) is -5V. At this time, the first integrator operates normally and does not perform the reset function. When the output voltage of the first integrator V... b Satisfy V b When the voltage is greater than +4.55V, the output voltage +NS of the second comparator is 0V. At this time, the maximum voltage at the +NS terminal of the operational amplifier in the first integrator can only provide 0V, so the output voltage of the first integrator is forced to reset to 0; when the output voltage V of the first integrator is... b Satisfy V b When the voltage is less than -4.55V, the output voltage of the fourth comparator, -NS, is 0V. At this time, the minimum voltage at the -NS terminal of the operational amplifier in the first integrator can only provide 0V, so the output voltage of the first integrator is forced to reset to 0.

[0026] A method for forcibly resetting the bias voltage of an external modulator, comprising the aforementioned device for forcibly resetting the bias voltage of an external modulator, the method comprising the following steps: 1) The external modulator bias voltage forced reset device receives the status signal DT, integrates the status signal DT, and outputs the integrated voltage in three ports, which are respectively given to the positive voltage reset channel and connected to the first comparator, the external modulator bias control, and the negative voltage reset channel and connected to the third comparator. 2) The voltage across resistor R8 is approximately 4.55V. The first comparator determines whether the first integrating output voltage is greater than 4.55V. When the integrating voltage is greater than 4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2A outputs +5V. Since the diode voltage difference is 0.7V, the first comparator outputs +4.3V. When the integrator voltage is less than 4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2A outputs -5V. Because the first comparator has a voltage output when the forward voltage of diode D1 is greater than +0.7V, the first comparator and the second integrator are effectively disconnected at this time. 3) The second integrator integrates the output voltage of the first comparator. When the first comparator outputs a high level of +4.3V, the second integrator begins to integrate, meaning its output voltage begins to decrease. Since the voltage across resistor R3 is approximately -2.5V, when the second integrator's output voltage is less than -2.5V, the second comparator's output level +NS is 0V. When the first comparator has no output voltage, the second integrator's input is -5V due to the pull-down resistor R4. At this time, the second integrator integrates -5V, meaning its output voltage begins to increase. When the second integrator's output voltage is greater than -2.5V, the second comparator's output level +NS is +5V. 4) Resistor R 19 The voltage at the top is approximately -4.55V. The third comparator determines whether the first integral output voltage is less than -4.55V. When the second integral voltage is less than -4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2B outputs a level of -5V. Since the voltage difference between the diodes is 0.7V, the third comparator outputs a level of -4.3V. When the second integral voltage is greater than -4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2B outputs a level of +5V. Because the third comparator has a voltage output when the reverse voltage of diode D2 is less than -0.7V, the third comparator and the third integrator are effectively disconnected at this time. 5) The third comparator has two output states. The first state is -4.3V, and the second state is a high-impedance disconnected state with no voltage output. In the first state, when the third comparator outputs -4.3V, the third integrator begins to integrate, and its output voltage begins to increase. When the third integrator output voltage is greater than +2.5V, the fourth comparator output level -NS is 0V. In the second state, when the third comparator has no voltage output, due to the pull-up resistor R15 of the second comparator, the input of the second integrator is +5V. At this time, the third integrator integrates +5V, and its output voltage begins to decrease. When the third integrator output voltage is less than +2.5V, the fourth comparator output level -NS is -5V. 6) The power supply terminals 8 and 4 of the operational amplifier in the first integrator are powered by the output terminals of the second and fourth comparators, respectively. When the output voltage V of the first integrator... b Satisfying -4.55V < V b When the voltage is < +4.55V, the output voltage of the second comparator (+NS) is +5V, and the output voltage of the fourth comparator (-NS) is -5V. At this time, the first integrator operates normally and does not perform the reset function. When the output voltage of the first integrator V... b Satisfy V b When the voltage is greater than +4.55V, the output voltage +NS of the second comparator is 0V. At this time, the maximum voltage at the +NS terminal of the operational amplifier in the first integrator can only provide 0V, so the output voltage of the first integrator is forced to reset to 0; when the output voltage V of the first integrator is... b Satisfy V b When the voltage is less than -4.55V, the output voltage of the fourth comparator, -NS, is 0V. At this time, the minimum voltage at the -NS terminal of the operational amplifier in the first integrator can only provide 0V, so the output voltage of the first integrator is forced to reset to 0.

[0027] In summary, in this example, when the output voltage of the first integrator, i.e., the bias voltage of the external modulator, is between -4.55V and +4.55V, the second and third integrators integrate -5V and +5V respectively. The output voltage of the second integrator is +5V, and the output voltage of the third integrator is -5V. At this time, the bias voltage output is in the non-reset region. When the output voltage of the first integrator, i.e., the bias voltage of the external modulator, is higher than the forced reset voltage +4.55V, the second integrator integrates +4.3V. When the second integrator integrates to an output voltage less than -2.5V, the device resets. When the output voltage of the first integrator, i.e., the bias voltage of the external modulator, is higher than or lower than the forced reset voltage -4.55V, the third integrator integrates -4.3V. When the third integrator integrates to an output voltage greater than +2.5V, the device resets. The reset initiation time is the time it takes for the second integrator's output voltage to integrate from +5V to -2.5V, and the time it takes for the second integrator's output voltage to integrate from -5V to +2.5V. Based on the calculations for integrator circuits in the fundamentals of analog electronics, the reset and startup time of the second integrator satisfies the following relationship: In the formula, V O V is the output voltage of the second integrator. I t1 is the input voltage of the second integrator, t2 is the start time of integration, and t2 is the end time of integration. Let V be the initial voltage of the second integrator, and according to the initial conditions, let V O -2.5V, R6 is 1000Ω, C1 is 0.0001F (100μF), V I +4.3V, t1 is 0s, Given a voltage of +5V, the integration time t2 can be calculated to be 0.174s. Therefore, when the output voltage of the first integrator meets the condition of being greater than +4.55V, the device will reset after 0.1744s. Similarly, when the output voltage of the first integrator meets the condition of being less than -4.55V, the integration time of the third integrator to the reset threshold is also 0.1744s, meaning the device will reset after 0.1744s.

[0028] In this example, the external modulator bias voltage forced reset device does not initiate forced reset when the external modulator bias voltage is between -4.55V and +4.55V; it initiates forced reset when the external modulator bias voltage is greater than +4.55V or less than -4.55V, and the external modulator bias voltage is reset to 0V after 0.1744s.

8. A method for forcibly resetting the bias voltage of an external modulator, comprising the external modulator bias voltage forced reset device as described in any one of claims 1-7, characterized in that, The method includes the following steps: 1) The external modulator bias voltage forced reset device receives the status signal DT, integrates the status signal DT, and outputs the integrated voltage in three ports, which are respectively given to the positive voltage reset channel and connected to the first comparator, the external modulator bias control, and the negative voltage reset channel and connected to the third comparator. 2) The voltage across resistor R8 is approximately 4.55V. The first comparator determines whether the first integrating output voltage is greater than 4.55V. When the integrating voltage is greater than 4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2A outputs +5V. Since the diode voltage difference is 0.7V, the first comparator outputs +4.3V. When the integrator voltage is less than 4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2A outputs -5V. Because the first comparator has a voltage output when the forward voltage of diode D1 is greater than +0.7V, the first comparator and the second integrator are effectively disconnected at this time. 3) The second integrator integrates the output voltage of the first comparator. When the first comparator outputs a high level of +4.3V, the second integrator begins to integrate, meaning its output voltage begins to decrease. Since the voltage across resistor R3 is approximately -2.5V, when the second integrator's output voltage is less than -2.5V, the second comparator's output level +NS is 0V. When the first comparator has no output voltage, the second integrator's input is -5V due to the pull-down resistor R4. At this time, the second integrator integrates -5V, meaning its output voltage begins to increase. When the second integrator's output voltage is greater than -2.5V, the second comparator's output level +NS is +5V. 4) Resistor R 19 The voltage at the top is approximately -4.55V. The third comparator determines whether the first integral output voltage is less than -4.55V. When the second integral voltage is less than -4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2B outputs a level of -5V. Since the voltage difference between the diodes is 0.7V, the third comparator outputs a level of -4.3V. When the second integral voltage is greater than -4.55V, the second operational amplifier U2B outputs a level of +5V. Because the third comparator has a voltage output when the reverse voltage of diode D2 is less than -0.7V, the third comparator and the third integrator are effectively disconnected at this time. 5) The third comparator has two output states. The first state is -4.3V, and the second state is a high-impedance disconnected state with no voltage output. In the first state, when the third comparator outputs -4.3V, the third integrator begins to integrate, and its output voltage begins to increase. When the third integrator output voltage is greater than +2.5V, the fourth comparator output level -NS is 0V. In the second state, when the third comparator has no voltage output, due to the pull-up resistor R15 of the second comparator, the input of the second integrator is +5V. At this time, the third integrator integrates +5V, and its output voltage begins to decrease. When the third integrator output voltage is less than +2.5V, the fourth comparator output level -NS is -5V. 6) The power supply terminals 8 and 4 of the operational amplifier in the first integrator are powered by the output terminals of the second and fourth comparators, respectively. When the output voltage V of the first integrator... b Satisfying -4.55V < V b When the voltage is < +4.55V, the output voltage of the second comparator (+NS) is +5V, and the output voltage of the fourth comparator (-NS) is -5V. At this time, the first integrator operates normally and does not perform the reset function. When the output voltage of the first integrator V... b Satisfy V b When the voltage is greater than +4.55V, the output voltage +NS of the second comparator is 0V. At this time, the maximum voltage at the +NS terminal of the operational amplifier in the first integrator can only provide 0V, so the output voltage of the first integrator is forced to reset to 0; when the output voltage V of the first integrator is... b Satisfy V b When the voltage is less than -4.55V, the output voltage of the fourth comparator, -NS, is 0V. At this time, the minimum voltage at the -NS terminal of the operational amplifier in the first integrator can only provide 0V, so the output voltage of the first integrator is forced to reset to 0.
