Discovery Semiconductors Balanced Photodiodes
with Integrated Optical Delay Line
Ewing, NJ - January 19, 2005
“Lab Buddy” is a small lightweight bench top O/E instrument
which incorporates Discovery’s family of wide bandwidth photodiodes
and receivers. Our newer Balanced Photodiode Lab Buddy model can
now be ordered with an option of integrated variable optical delay
line.
The reason for integrating optical delay line is to match precisely
the path lengths of the two photodiodes in a balanced version.
One meter of fiber length is approximately 5 nano-seconds of delay,
so 1 millimeter of fiber length is approximately 5 pico-seconds
of delay. This path length matching is critical for 40 Gb/s applications,
where the bit period is 25 pico-seconds.
Key Features:
- +/- 300 pico-seconds Variable Optical Delay
- Balanced Photodiodes from 10G to 40G with built in bias voltage
- Front Panel Removable Fiber Optic HIGH QUALITY connectors
- Switch selectable photocurrent monitoring for convenient balance adjustment
- Amplifier options available
- 110V or 220V plug-in instrument
