OPV215

Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser in TO-46 Package Features Attenuated Optics 850 nm VCSEL technology High thermal stability Up to 1.25 Gbps Recommended for multimode fiber applications Microbead lens Pin out and attenuation options available on request Burned in for communication level reliability High optical coupling to MM fiber Description The OPV215 is a high performance 850nm VCSEL packaged for high speed communication links. OPV215 combines all the performance advantages of a VCSEL with the addition of a power monitor diode for precise control of optical power and about 30% optical attenuation for noise suppression. The OPV215Y is identical electrically and optically and differs only in pin out. Refer to mechanical drawings for details. This product’s combination of features including high speed, high output power and concentric beam make it an ideal transmitter for integration into all types of data communications equipment. Applications include: Absolute Maximum Ratings (TA = 25° C unless otherwise noted) Maximum Reverse Voltage Storage Temperature Operating Temperature Soldering Lead Temperature Max. Continuous Optical Power at 70° C 5 Volts -40 to +125° C -40 to +85° C 260° C for 10 Seconds 0.8 mW ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Fibre Channel Gigabit Ethernet ATM VSR (Very Short Reach) Intra-system links Optical backplane interconnects.
