DET02AFC Operating Manual — Fiber Input Si Photodetector
Description:
The DET02AFC is a ready-to-use, high-speed Si photodetector for use with FC/PC connectorized fiber optic cables
in visible wavelength optical systems. The unit comes with an FC/PC bulkhead connector, detector, and 12V bias
battery enclosed in a compact aluminum housing. The FC/PC connector provides easy coupling to fiber-based light
sources. The output uses an SMA jack to minimize size and maximize frequency response. The bandwidth is
1.2GHz and will operate over the spectral range of 400-1100nm. A NIR version, the DET01CFC, is also available
and operates in the 800-1700nm spectral range.
The DET02AFC includes one #8-32 tapped mounting hole with a 0.25" mounting depth, while the DET02AFC/M has
one M4 tapped mounting hole with a 6.35mm mounting depth. A 12V A23 battery is included.
