15 GHz Linear GaAs PIN Photodetector, 850nm, Multimode Fiber

The Optilab SPD-15-MM is a highly linear, 15 GHz bandwidth GaAs PIN photodetector that is optimized for 850 nm operational wavelength w/Multimode Fiber (OM4); it is ideal for use in O/E front-ends requiring wide band frequency response. The coplanar waveguide photodiode design optimizes speed and sensitivity for the 850 nm and assures a 15 GHz frequency response necessary for digital and analog applications. The front-illuminated mesa-structured PIN design allows a high input power level of up to 20 mW. The SPD-15-MM is available in a standard 2-pin package with SMA type RF connector output for ease of assembly and can be ordered with or without the external protective housing.
