Enablence Technologies Inc. Launches High Performance Photodiodes
03/4/2011
Enablence Technologies Inc. announced the availability of its industry-unique family of high speed photodiodes (PD), designed for high performance signal conversion needed to support up to 40 Gbps/100 Gbps applications in the optical communications industry. These state-of-the-art photodiodes cost-effectively convert incoming optical signals into electrical signals for high integrity signal delivery along access, metro and long-haul networks. The new Enablence product offering includes high performance balanced 25G photodiodes, 10G avalanche photodiode (APD) arrays, high speed photodiodes with integrated lenses as well as 25G short-wavelength photodiode arrays for next-Gen optical transmission systems, especially for 40 Gbps/100 Gbps applications. Through ongoing miniaturization and wafer level integration of lenses and filters, Enablence's components unit offers Telecom and Datacom customers, innovative, cost effective products for high volume applications such as 2.5 Gbps/10 Gbps PON, 10 Gbps Ethernet, HDMI and QSFP. Company's photodiode technology platform and cost structure are among the best choices for several high volume consumer products, including Light Peak and optical HDMI. Features include: Balanced 25G photodiodes, which enable detection of advanced modulation formats used in next-Gen systems such as 40 Gbps/100 Gbps, and offer high responsivity, low bias voltage, low dark current, and a wide operating temperature range. 10G APD Arrays, which allow miniaturization of long-haul receivers and have a very low excess noise, low temperature dependence and come with a large optical aperture and an excellent gain-bandwidth product at a low operating bias voltage. High speed photodiodes with integrated lenses, which significantly ease the optical coupling of light into the photodiodes, thereby reducing the cost for lens design and chip assembly, and further improving the system optical performance.
