IF-E98 Industrial Fiberoptics

5050MHz Plastic FMHz Plastic Fiiber Optic Rber Optic Red LEDed LED IF-E98IF-E98 5/2/06 DESCRIPTION The IF-E98 is a high-speed red LED housed in a connector-less style plastic fiber optic package. The output spectrum of the IF-E98 is produced by a GaAlAs die that peaks at a wavelength of 650 nm, one of the optimal transmission windows of PMMA plastic optical fiber. The device package features an internal micro-lens and a precision- molded PBT housing to ensure efficient optical coupling with standard 1000 m core plastic fiber cable. APPLICATION HIGHLIGHTS The fast transition times of the IF-E98 make it suitable for medium-speed analog and digital data links. Link distances in excess of 75 meters at data rates of 50 Mbps are possible using standard 1000 m core plastic fiber when matched to an IF-D97 photo- logic detector. The drive circuit is simpler than required for laser diodes, making the IF-E98 a good low-cost alternative in a variety of analog and digital applications.

Cut off the ends of the optical fiber with a single- edge razor blade or sharp knife. Try to obtain a precise 90-degree angle (square). 2. Insert the fiber through the locking nut and into the connector until the core tip seats against the internal micro-lens. 3. Screw the connector locking nut down to a snug fit, locking the fiber in place. FIGURE 2. Output power versus temperature. PACKAGE IDENTIFICATION: Blue housing w/ silver dot PIN 1. Cathode PIN 2.
