The 2609C is a packaged impedance-matched photodiode module with
internal gain designed for use in optical broadband receivers in fiberoptic
networks. The patented impedance-match technology results in
improved gain-bandwidth product compared to external circuits due to
better control of parasitics between the photodiode and the impedance-
matching circuit
Additionally, the 2611A is designed for superior distortion performance at
up to 6 dBm (received) input power

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are
absolute stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in
excess of those given in the operational sections of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for
extended periods can adversely affect device reliability.
