PIN Fiber Optic
Photodetector
Bookham Technology's PIN Fiber Optic Photodetector has
been specifically designed for use in single-mode fiber optic
networks and links where components with low optical
reflections are of prime importance. It has a combination of
high responsivity, low capacitance and low dark current-
together with a high optical return loss fiber pigtail. The
optical component is hermetically sealed to ensure a reliable
product and is actively aligned to the single-mode fiber pigtail.
