PT-10A
• PIN/TIA receiver module
• High sensitivity, -19 dBm
Product Bulletin (Preliminary) • February 2002
• High data rate, up to 10.7 Gb/s
• 1200–1650 nm wavelength range
• Compact 8-pin butterfly package
• SMA or GPO output connector
The
PT-10A
is a -19 dBm sensitivity,
single-output receiver module for
OC-192 / STM-64 transmission system
receive applications up to 10.7 Gb/s.
It couples a high responsivity (1 A/W),
back-illuminated PIN photodiode, usable
from 1200 nm to 1650 nm, with an
internal transimpedance gain stage of
500 V/A. This combination produces a
receiver with a 9 GHz bandwidth and
conversion gain of 500 V/W.
The single-coaxial output module is
available with either an SMA or GPO
output connector in a compact, 8-pin
butterfly package with single-mode fiber
input. A single +8V power supply can be

Application Notes
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) will cause permanent
damage to the product. Please avoid any ESD to the
input pins or output connector. Use standard ESD
protective equipment when handling this product.
Temperature and fiber restrictions are as follows:
Lead soldering: 250°C for no more than 10 seconds
Fiber feed-through tube: 120°C
Fiber pull force: 10 N
Fiber bending radius: 1 inch or less
Exceeding these conditions can cause permanent
damage to the device.
