Fiber-Optic Detector, Battery Biased InGaAs, 22 GHz, FC/UPC
The 818-BB-36F High Speed Battery Biased Fiber-Optic Detector features an extended InGaAs photodiode with a 20 um active diameter and a <16 ps rise time coupled to a Corning singlemode SMF-28e fiber with an FC/UPC connector. It works well in high-frequency heterodyne applications, time domain, frequency response measurements and monitoring output of ultrafast lasers. It includes a built-in battery-powered 3V bias, an on-off switch and an SMA connector output. The batteries are easily replaceable and by disconnecting the detector from the oscilloscope input, when not in use, you can extend the lifetime of the batteries.
Measure Pulsewidth or Frequency Response
These high speed detectors make a great fiber-optic front end for a scope or spectrum analyzer. When terminated into 50Ω into an oscilloscope, the pulse width of a laser can be measured. When terminated into a spectrum analyzer, the frequency response of a laser can be measured.
Optical Post Mounting
An 8-32 threaded hole at the bottom of 818-BB biased photoreceivers allows for optical post mounting.
Handle With ESD Care
These detectors are very susceptible to damage by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Please use ESD protective measures, like the FK-STRAP, when unpacking and handling these devices.
