Amplified Fiber Optical Detector: 0.8-1.7µm, 100MHz

Amplified Fiber Optical Detector: 0.8-1.7µm, 100MHz

The AFOD series detectors offer a user-friendly photodiode package with an integrated high-gain, low-noise analog transimpedance amplifier, optimized for applications requiring high bandwidth and ultra-fast response times (<1 ns). These detectors feature a manually switchable gain with four settings: 660, 1020, 2000, and 20000, to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio, ideal for detecting low-level optical beat signals at frequencies up to 100 MHz. The AFOD detectors come with fiber optical FC inputs and an M4 tapped hole in the housing for easy post mounting. Each unit includes a low-noise ±12 V linear power supply, with replacements available separately.
