Attenuator Integrated With Input Tap (voltage control)

Transcription

1 etmems TM Variable Optical Attenuator Integrated With Input Tap (voltage control) (US patent 8,666,218 and other patents pending) Features VOA + Tap Compact Size Low Cost High Reliability Low IL, PDL, WDL and TDL Direct Drive Applications Power Control Power Regulation Channel Balance Instrumentation Revision: Product Description The etmems TM Series VOA is based on a micro-electro-mechanical mechanism featuring integrated compact design, simple construction, easy direct drive, and excellent optical performance of ultra low insertion loss, low PDL, and broad wavelength operation range. The MM series VOA is compliant with the Telcordia 129 and 1221 reliability standards. The MM series VOA is available in either normally-open or normally-closed configurations and with an integrated input tap option. The VOA is driven by applying an electrical voltage Performance Specifications etmems TM Series TVOA Min Typical Max Unit Wavelength nm Insertion Loss [1].5.8 db Polarization Dependent Loss [2].15.5 db Wavelength Dependence Loss [3],[4].4.7 db Attenuation Range db Attenuation Resolution Continuous Extinction Ratio (PM only) db Polarization Mode Dispersion.1.5 ps Return Loss 45 db Response Time 3 6 ms Driving Voltage [5] [7] V Device Resistance 81 1 Ω Optical Power handling 3 5 mw Tap 155nm ma/w Tap directivity N/A or 25 db Tap Wavelength Dependence Response [6] db/nm Tap Polarization Dependence Response db Tap Temperature Dependence Response.1 db/ C Tap Dark Current at 5V 23 C.2 1 na Tap Dark Current at 5V 7 C 3 7 na Tap 3dB Bandwidth (cutoff frequency) 1 MHz Tap Capacitance 12 pf Operating Temperature o C Storage Temperature o C Reliability Telcordia 129 and 1221 Package Dimension Φ6.1 X 35.2 mm Notes: [1].Without connector and at room temperature [2].At 2dB or less attenuation [3].At 2dB attenuation and at whole temperature range [4].Within 4nm Bandwidth [5].At 2dB attenuation for transparent version, at.8db attenuation for opaque version.
