Fiber-Optic Receiver, DC Coupled, 780-870 nm, 12 GHz, FC Multimode.

The 1580-B DC-Coupled VIS Fiber-Optic Receiver is ideal for applications that require high sensitivity, high speed, and clean responses. Its offers clean responses and 30-ps rise times making it well-suited for time-domain characterization of 10-Gbit/s components. Its high gain and well-behaved frequency response also make it useful for frequency-domain measurements. This receiver has a 62.5 μm core multimode fiber input and consists of a GaAs PIN photodiode followed by a GaAs HBT amplifier. It is specifically designed to cover the 780-870 nm wavelength range with a maximum conversion gain of -450 V/W at 850 nm, and it is particularly well-suited for applications requiring high responsivity at 850 nm such as in Datacom component testing.
An external power supply, which must be purchased separately, is required – we recommend our
