摘要： Methods and devices for effecting the protocol-independent transmission of data and other communications over fiber-optic interfaces are provided. The present invention includes devices and methods for providing a special communication channel for management, by way of an optical fiber interface, while co-operating with the normal high-speed data-carrying channel, while over the same fiber, and using the same optical wavelength. Thus the management and control of optical interfaces across the fiber-optic medium can be provided without any additional connection, and without interfering with the data signal, such that information can reliably be passed back and forth between the optical transceivers at either end of the fiber.

摘要： The present disclosure relates to an optical power monitoring circuit including an automatic power control (APC) loop and a microcontroller unit (MCU), and a method for monitoring the same. The APC loop comprises a laser diode (LD) and a feedback loop to maintain a laser optical power. The MCU is configured to (i) monitor a bias current using a current sense circuit, (ii) monitor a rate of change of the bias current with time, and (iii) adjust a target power of the APC loop. By monitoring the bias current and the rate of change, and comparing them against thresholds, the target power can be adjusted by the MCU, to prevent roll-over in the laser diode, damage to the laser, and/or a hard failure in the data links that use the laser.
