Rugged and Robust
RoHS compliant
In the CIPRM series balanced optical receiver Excelitas has the
best features of high performance InGaAs photodiodes and low
noise, high gain transimpedance amplifier to offer a practical
solution to detect small changes above the interfering noise floor
of incoming signal. The advantage is that the common optical
noise is cancelled out.
This receiver incorporates two low-noise photodiodes with well-
matched responsivity in order to ensure a high common mode
rejection ratio (CMRR). It has two optical inputs (single mode
fiber in -1 series and FC connectorized in -2 series), an RF output,
electrical supply inputs and two photo-current monitor outputs.
Applications
Spectroscopy
Optical delay measurement
Heterodyne Detection
Optical coherent
tomography
Ellipsometry
Ultra low signal detection
The CIPRM modules come in a robust casing with flange mounting
holes for securing the module to working surfaces or platforms.
Combined with a wide operating temperature range, the CIPRM
can work in some of the toughest and harshest environments.
Excelitas’ series of optical balanced receiver modules are designed
and built to be fully compliant with the European Union’s RoHS
Directive 2011/65/EU.
