10 MBd 650nm High Performance Link Receiver in Horizontal Package

The HFBR-0508 Series consists of a fiber-optic transmitter and receiver operating at a 650 nm wavelength (red). The HFBR-1528 transmitter is an LED in a low cost plastic housing designed to efficiently couple power into 200 5m diameter HCS and 1 mm diameter POF. The HFBR-2528 receiver incorporates a PIN detecyor and digital output IC compatible with CMOS and TTL logic families.
HFBR-0508 links operate from DC to 10 MBd at distances up to 50 meters with 1 mm POF and up to 500 meters with 200 5m HCS(c). No minimum link distances are required when using recommended circuits, simplifying design.

Versatile Link components can be interlocked (N-plexed together) to minimize space and to provide dual connections with the duplex connectors. Up to eight packages can be interlocked and inserted into a printed circuit board.

POF and HCS are available in pre-connectored lengths or can be easily field-terminated. A single transmitter drive current for POF and HCS allows both fibers to be used with a single design.
