Detailed Description
In order to solve the technical problems that in the prior art, when an optical link is damaged to cause communication interruption and a failed optical link needs to be switched to a standby optical link in the process of using a PON device for communication, the implementation complexity is high and the cost is increased, the invention provides a driving chip, an optical module, a switching method of the optical module and the PON device, wherein the driving chip is applied to the optical module or a bidirectional optical component on a board, and the driving chip comprises: the device comprises a register, a laser driver and a limiting amplifier; the output end of the register is connected with a first input end of a logic OR gate, and the output end of the logic OR gate is respectively connected with a first port of the laser driver and a first port of the limiting amplifier; the register outputs a received first protection switching enable signal to control burst light enable of the laser driver to be in a failure state, and controls an output end of the limiting amplifier to be in a closed state, so that the optical module is in a non-working state; the register outputs a received second protection enabling signal to control burst light enabling of the laser driver to be in a working state and control the output end of the limiting amplifier to be in the working state, so that the optical module is in the working state; wherein the register bits of the register are preconfigured through the I2C interface.
The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail by the accompanying drawings and the specific embodiments.
Example one
The present embodiment provides a driving chip, which is applied in a Board on Board (BOSA) for an Optical module or a bidirectional Optical module, as shown in fig. 1, and includes: a register 1, a logic OR gate 2, a laser driver 3 and a limiting amplifier 4;
the output end of the register 1 is connected to the first input end of the logic or gate 2, and the output end of the logic or gate 2 is respectively connected to the first port of the laser driver 3 and the first port of the limiting amplifier 4; the register 1 outputs the received first protection switching enable signal to control the burst light enable BEN of the laser driver 3 to be in a failure state, that is, any burst light enable signal input cannot drive the laser driver 3; even if the interface (SerDes) of the PON Media Access Control (MAC) SERializer/DESerializer of the central processing unit CPU of the passive optical network device has a differential signal input TXIN +/-port, the laser driver 3 cannot drive the optical components to emit light, and the signal integrity of the differential signal will not be affected due to the differential 100 Ω termination impedance termination between TXIN +/-s.
Further, the first protection switching enable signal simultaneously controls the output end of the limiting amplifier 4 to be in an off state, so that the optical module is in a non-working state. That is, even if the limiting amplifier 4 receives an electrical signal that is detected by the optical component and enters RXIN +/-, no signal is output from the signal output terminal RXOUT +/either.
Here, the register 1 may further output a received second protection enable signal to control burst light enable of the laser driver 3 to be in an operating state, and control an output end of the limiting amplifier 4 to be in an operating state, so that the optical module is in an operating state; wherein the first port of the laser driver 3 comprises: a burst enable control port; the first port of the limiting amplifier 4 includes: clipping enables the control port.
The register bit of the register 1 is configured in advance through an I2C interface; the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal are preset digital signals, and the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal are different, that is, when the first protection switching enable signal is at a high level, the second protection switching enable signal is at a low level; when the first protection switching enable signal is at a low level, the second protection switching enable signal is at a high level.
It should be noted that, because it is necessary to configure the register bit standby of the register 1 by using an I2C interface, the driver chip further includes a storage unit, the register 1 is disposed in the storage unit, and the storage unit is connected to the I2C interface of the driver chip. When the register bit standby of the register 1 is configured by using the I2C interface, the memory cell stores binary information, so that the register bit standby can be configured to be only 0 or 1, that is, the protection switching enable signal output by the register 1 is low level or high level.
Here, referring to fig. 1, the driving chip further includes: a protection switching port Standby-SW, configured to receive the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal; and the protection switching port Standby-SW is connected with the second input end of the logic or gate 2. That is to say, the protection switching enable signal input by the protection switching port Standby-SW and the protection switching enable signal input by the register 1 may pass through the logic or gate 2 together, and when any one of the protection switching enable signals is a preset enable digital signal, the protection switching function may be triggered to be enabled, otherwise, the protection switching function is not enabled.
Thus, only one register bit of the standby optical module needs to be correspondingly set through the protection switching port or the I2C interface of the chip, the protection switching of the optical module can be realized without using additional hardware circuits such as a protection switching switch, a CPLD \ FPGA \ singlechip and the like, the board distribution area is not occupied, the cost is low, programmable devices such as the CPLD \ FPGA \ singlechip and the like do not need to be programmed and burned, and the realization is simple; and the switching time delay of the protection switching switch is not caused, and the software operation processing time delay of a CPLD, a FPAG, a singlechip and the like is not caused, so that the protection switching time is shortened.
Example two
Corresponding to the first embodiment, the present embodiment provides an optical module, which includes the driving chip described in the first embodiment,
as shown in fig. 1, the driving chip includes: a register 1, a logic OR gate 2, a laser driver 3 and a limiting amplifier 4;
the output end of the register 1 is connected to the first input end of the logic or gate 2, and the output end of the logic or gate 2 is respectively connected to the first port of the laser driver 3 and the first port of the limiting amplifier 4; the register 1 outputs the received first protection switching enable signal to control the burst light enable BEN of the laser driver 3 to be in a failure state, that is, any burst light enable signal input cannot drive the laser driver 3; even if the SerDes interface of the PON MAC of the central processor CPU of the passive optical network device has differential signal input TXIN +/-ports, the laser driver 3 cannot be made to drive the optical components to emit light, and the signal integrity of the differential signal will not be affected due to the differential 100 Ω termination impedance termination between TXIN +/-s.
Further, the first protection switching enable signal simultaneously controls the output end of the limiting amplifier 4 to be in an off state, so that the optical module is in a non-working state. That is, even if the electrical signal detected by the optical component is received by the limiting amplifier 4 into RXIN +/-, the signal output terminal RXOUT +/-has no signal output.
Here, the register 1 may further output a received second protection enable signal to control burst light enable of the laser driver 3 to be in an operating state, and control an output end of the limiting amplifier 4 to be in an operating state, so as to enable the optical module to be in an operating state; wherein the first port of the laser driver 3 comprises: a burst enable control port; the first port of the limiting amplifier 4 includes: clipping enables the control port.
Wherein, the register bit of the register 1 is configured in advance through an I2C interface; the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal are preset digital signals, and the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal are different, that is, when the first protection switching enable signal is at a high level, the second protection switching enable signal is at a low level; when the first protection switching enable signal is at a low level, the second protection switching enable signal is at a high level.
It should be noted that, because it is necessary to configure the register bit standby of the register 1 by using an I2C interface, the driver chip further includes a storage unit, the register 1 is disposed in the storage unit, and the storage unit is connected to the I2C interface of the driver chip. When the register bit standby of the register 1 is configured by using the I2C interface, the register bit standby can only be configured to be 0 or 1 because the storage unit stores binary information, that is, the protection switching enable signal output by the register 1 is low level or high level.
Here, referring to fig. 1, the driving chip further includes: a protection switching port Standby-SW, configured to receive the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal; and the protection switching port Standby-SW is connected with the second input end of the logic or gate 2. That is to say, the protection switching enable signal input by the protection switching port Standby-SW and the protection switching enable signal input by the register 1 may pass through the logic or gate 2 together, when any one of the protection switching enable signals is a preset enable digital signal, the protection switching function may be triggered to be enabled, otherwise, the protection switching function may not be enabled.
Thus, only one register bit of the standby optical module needs to be correspondingly set through the protection switching port or the I2C interface of the chip, the protection switching of the optical module can be realized without using additional hardware circuits such as a protection switching switch, a CPLD \ FPGA \ singlechip and the like, the board distribution area is not occupied, the cost is low, programmable devices such as the CPLD \ FPGA \ singlechip and the like do not need to be programmed and burned, and the realization is simple; and the switching time delay of the protection switching switch is not provided, and the software operation processing time delay of a CPLD \ FPAG \ singlechip and the like is not provided, so that the protection switching time is shortened.
EXAMPLE III
Corresponding to the second embodiment, this embodiment further provides a method for switching an optical module, as shown in fig. 2, where the method includes:
s101, receiving a first protection switching enable signal;
in this step, a register is used to receive the first protection switching enable signal. Specifically, an output end of the register is connected to a first input end of a logic or gate, and an output end of the logic or gate is connected to a first port of the laser driver and a first port of the limiting amplifier, respectively. Here, the driving chip further includes: a protection switching port Standby-SW, configured to receive the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal; and the protection switching port Standby-SW is connected with the second input end of the logic OR gate. That is to say, the first protection switching enable signal input by the protection switching port Standby-SW and the first protection switching enable signal input by the register may pass through the logic or gate together, and when any one of the first protection switching enable signals is a preset enable digital signal, the protection switching function enable may be triggered.
Here, the first port of the laser driver includes: a burst enable control port; the first port of the limiting amplifier includes: clipping enables the control port.
Wherein register bits of the register are preconfigured through an I2C interface; the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal are preset digital signals, and the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal are different, that is, when the first protection switching enable signal is at a high level, the second protection switching enable signal is at a low level; when the first protection switching enable signal is at a low level, the second protection switching enable signal is at a high level.
It should be noted that, because it is necessary to configure the register bit standby of the register by using the I2C interface, the driver chip further includes a storage unit, the register is disposed in the storage unit, and the storage unit is connected to the I2C interface of the driver chip. When the register bit standby of the register is configured by using the I2C interface, the register bit standby can only be configured to be 0 or 1 because the storage unit stores binary information, that is, the protection switching enable signal output by the register is low level or high level.
S102, controlling burst light enable of a laser driver to be in a failure state by using the first protection switching enable signal, and controlling an output end of the limiting amplifier to be in a closing state; enabling the optical module to be in a non-working state;
when receiving a first protection switching enable signal, outputting the received first protection switching enable signal to control the burst light enable BEN of the laser driver to be in a failure state, namely, any burst light enable signal input cannot drive the laser driver; even if the SerDes interface of the CPU of the PON device has a differential signal input signal TXIN +/-port, the laser driver cannot drive the optical components to emit light, and the signal integrity of the differential signal will not be affected due to the differential 100 omega termination impedance termination between TXIN +/-s.
Further, the first protection switching enable signal simultaneously controls the output end of the limiting amplifier to be in a closed state, so that the optical module is in a non-working state. That is, even if the limiting amplifier receives an electrical signal detected by the optical component entering RXIN +/-, the signal output terminal RXOUT +/-has no signal output.
S103, receiving a second protection switching enable signal;
when the optical link fails and the standby optical module needs to be switched to a normal working state, receiving a second protection switching enabling signal; similarly, the register and the protection switching port Standby-SW may receive a second protection switching enable signal at the same time, the second protection switching enable signal input by the protection switching port Standby-SW may pass through a logic or gate together with the second protection switching enable signal input by the register, and when any one of the second protection switching enable signal is a preset disable digital signal, the protection switching function is turned off.
S104, controlling the burst light of the laser driver to be in a working state by using the second protection switching enable signal, and controlling the output end of the limiting amplifier to be in the working state; so that the optical module is in an operating state.
In this step, the second protection switching enable signal is used to control the burst light enable of the laser driver to be in a working state, and control the output end of the limiting amplifier to be in a working state; so that the optical module is in an operating state. Thereby making the standby optical module enter a normal working state.

When a communication link from a first optical module to an OLT fails, inputting a first protection switching enabling signal to a Standby-SW port of the first optical module, or enabling a register of the first optical module to output the first protection switching enabling signal through an I2C bus configuration register so that the first optical module is in a non-working state;
then, inputting a second protection switching enable signal to a Standby-SW port of the second optical module, or enabling a register of the second optical module to output the second protection switching enable signal through an I2C bus configuration register, so that the second optical module is in a working state; thus, the second optical module is switched from the standby state to the working state; it should be noted that only one register bit of the standby optical module needs to be correspondingly set through the protection switching port or the I2C interface of the chip, and the switching time is not longer than 50ms.
EXAMPLE five
The present embodiment provides a PON device, where the PON device includes a processor and an optical module provided in the second embodiment, where the optical module includes: a first optical module and a second optical module; the first optical module is the same as a driving chip of a second optical module, the first optical module is a main optical module, and the second optical module is a standby optical module; taking the first optical module as an example, referring to fig. 1, the driving chip of the first optical module includes: a register, a laser driver and a limiting amplifier;
the output end of the register 1 is connected to the first input end of the logic or gate 2, and the output end of the logic or gate 2 is respectively connected to the first port of the laser driver 3 and the first port of the limiting amplifier 4; the register 1 outputs the received first protection switching enable signal to control the burst light enable BEN of the laser driver 3 to be in a failure state, that is, any burst light enable signal input cannot drive the laser driver 3; even if the SerDes interface of the central processing unit CPU of the PON device has a differential signal input signal TXIN +/-port, the driving optical component of the laser driver 3 cannot be made to emit light, and the integrity of the protection switching enable signal will not be affected due to the differential 100 Ω termination impedance termination between TXIN +/-s.
Further, the first protection switching enable signal simultaneously controls the output end of the limiting amplifier 4 to be in an off state, so that the optical module is in a non-working state. That is, even if the electrical signal detected by the optical component is received by the limiting amplifier 4 into RXIN +/-, the signal output terminal RXOUT +/-has no signal output. For example, when an optical link from the first optical module to the peer device is normal, the first protection switching enable signal is used to control the second optical module to be in a non-working state.
Here, the register 1 may further output a received second protection enable signal to control burst light enable of the laser driver 3 to be in an operating state, and control an output end of the limiting amplifier 4 to be in an operating state, so as to enable the optical module to be in an operating state; wherein the first port of the laser driver 3 comprises: a burst enable control port; the first port of the limiting amplifier 4 includes: clipping enables the control port. For example, when an optical link from the first optical module to the peer device fails, the first protection switching enable signal is used to control the first optical module to be in a non-working state, and the second protection enable signal is used to control the second optical module to be in a working state, so that the optical link is switched to an optical link from the second optical module to the peer device.
The register bit of the register 1 is configured in advance through an I2C interface; the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal are preset digital signals, and the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal are different, that is, when the first protection switching enable signal is at a high level, the second protection switching enable signal is at a low level; when the first protection switching enable signal is at a low level, the second protection switching enable signal is at a high level.
It should be noted that, because it is necessary to configure the register bit standby of the register 1 by using an I2C interface, the driver chip further includes a storage unit, the register 1 is disposed in the storage unit, and the storage unit is connected to the I2C interface of the driver chip. When the register bit standby of the register 1 is configured by using the I2C interface, the register bit standby can only be configured to be 0 or 1 because the storage unit stores binary information, that is, the protection switching enable signal output by the register 1 is low level or high level.
Here, referring to fig. 1, the driving chip further includes: a protection switching port Standby-SW, configured to receive the first protection switching enable signal and the second protection switching enable signal; and the protection switching port Standby-SW is connected with the second input end of the logic or gate 2. That is to say, the protection switching enable signal input by the protection switching port Standby-SW and the protection switching enable signal input by the register 1 may pass through the logic or gate 2 together, when any one of the protection switching enable signals is a preset enable digital signal, the protection switching function may be triggered to be enabled, otherwise, the protection switching function may not be enabled.
