High-Speed Fibre-Optic Detectors introduced

The Sensing and Control Business of Honeywell has introduced a new high-performance 850nm GaAs detector and pre-amplifier in a TO-46 hermetic package for high-speed data communications.

The Sensing and Control Business of Honeywell has introduced a new high-performance 850nm GaAs detector and pre-amplifier in a TO-46 hermetic package for high-speed data communications.

The HFD3X81-102's design makes it easy to use for the module designer or manufacturer for data rates from 622 Mbps to 2.5 Gbps.

The HFD3X81-102 converts optical power into an electrical signal that is used in fiber-optic communications and other applications.

As the light increases, the output voltage increases, limiting at input powers above -10dBm.

The differential output is designed to be AC coupled into a data amplifier.

The pre-aligned and lensed package, with an industry standard SC style connector sleeve or a fibre receptacle sleeve that is compatible with the industry standard LC* small form factor connector, allows for "drop in" assembly to reduce manufacturing cost.

The Honeywell HFD3X81-102 is designed to interface with 50/125 and 62.5/125mm mulitmode fibre.

These detectors can be paired with complementary Honeywell VCSEL emitters.

Honeywell is a leader in VCSEL technology and offers a broad range of VCSEL and detector products in several versatile packages.
