Fiber Optics Transmitters – Drive Circuitry Integrated
Product Definition and Function
This type of component is a fiber optic transmitter with an integrated drive circuit, which is mainly used to convert electrical signals into optical signals and transmit them through optical fiber. Its core components usually include a drive circuit, laser diode or LED light source, and fiber optic interface module.
Typical Product Models and Parameters
GP1FM513TZ: Produced by Sharp, supports 13.2Mbps transmission rate, uses DIP package, and complies with RoHS standards;
TOTX179P: Toshiba product, transmission rate 12.8Mbps, packaged as DIP-3, suitable for medium and short distance communication2;
TOTX141P: Also a Toshiba series, the integrated design of packaging and drive circuit is suitable for industrial scenarios.
Technical Features and Materials
The integrated design realizes the efficient packaging of optoelectronics devices and drives circuits through multi-layer multi-chip module (MCM) technology. Some products use germanium oxide (GeO₂) as a waveguide material to optimize the refractive index and light absorption performance.
Application Scenarios
