Linear Balanced Photoreceivers with 14 or 20 GHz Bandwidth


Description:

The DSC-R405 is an extremely linear PIN + Amplifier balanced optical receiver suited for a variety of digital and analog applications. The R405 offers a linear response to > 0 dBm optical input, > 0.6Vp-p of linear output voltage, +5dBm of RF output power and a differential conversion gain of 300 V/W. The R405 is available in two bandwidth versions (14 and 20GHz) and three package choices: single-ended K-connector, differential GPPO, and a miniature surface mount package with CPW (coplanar waveguide) RF outputs, and utilizes Discovery's high-reliability InGaAs photodiode technology.

Salient Features:
  • Industry leading 10G OSNR performance
  • Linear gain to > 0 dBm optical input
  • Linear single-ended output voltage of > 0.6Vp-p
  • Wide RF bandwidth of 14 or 20 GHz
  • High Responsivity at 1310nm, 1550nm & L-band
  • Well-matched fiber lengths, responsivity & RF response
  • Low optical PDL @ 1550nm (typically 0.05dB)
  • K-connector, GPPO or surface mount package options
  • Meets GR-468 reliability standard
Applications:
  • DPSK/DQPSK: Differential Phase/Polarization Shift Keying or Differential Quadrature Phase Shift Keying
  • Rapid Doppler-shift LIDAR measurements
  • Coherent Lightwave Systems
Available Models:
  • DSC-R405 - Linear Balanced Photoreceivers with 14 GHz Bandwidth
  • DSC-R405ER - Linear Balanced Photoreceivers with 20 GHz Bandwidth
