P-15B
• 18 ps risetime
Product Bulletin (Preliminary) • February 2002
• 12 GHz PIN detector module
• Front-end for receivers up to 10.7 Gb/s
• High responsivity, 1.0 A/W
• Compact 3-pin package
The
P-15B
is an ultrafast, InGaAs PIN
photodetector module ideal for use as an
O/E front-end for receivers in applications
up to 10.7 Gb/s. The back-illuminated
PIN photodiode design optimizes speed
and sensitivity for the 1200 nm through
1650 nm wavelength range. The internal
Clean-pulse
TM
design assures low group-
delay response necessary for time-domain,
digital applications.
The detector is available in a compact
3-pin package with either a K output
connector or an RF feed-through pin for
direct soldering to circuit boards. Input
via a single-mode fiber is standard.
The hermetic module is Telcordia
compliant.
