Summary of EXCELITAS TECHNOLOGIES INTRODUCES NEW HPR-1100BGH HYBRID PIN RECEIVER MODULE
Excelitas Technologies introduced the HPR-1100BGH Hybrid PIN Receiver Module, combining a high-speed Silicon PIN photodiode, shielded low-noise J-FET amplifier, and optical aperture in a compact package to amplify weak optical signals with high SNR at low bandwidth. It suits optical power meters, fast laser triggers, instrumentation, and short-range communication receivers, offering large active area, wide spectral range, RoHS compliance, and simplified integration for high-performance, short-range optical applications.
Parts used in the HPR-1100BGH Hybrid PIN Receiver Module:
- High-speed Silicon PIN Photodiode
- Low-noise J-FET operational amplifier (shielded)
- Optical aperture
- Compact robust package/enclosure
Excelitas Technologies announced the latest addition to the company’s Hybrid Photodiode Receiver (HPR) series – the HPR-1100BGH Hybrid PIN Receiver Module. The new HPR-1100BGH Hybrid PIN Receiver Module integrates Excelitas’ high-speed Silicon PIN Photodiode, a low-noise J-FET operational amplifier and an optical aperture to minimize stray light detection and ease the development of systems where weak signals with a high gain need to be amplified at low-bandwidth.
Delivered in a robust small package, the HPR-1100BGH provides high output signals at the highest signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). It is ideal for conversion of a light signal into an electrical output and low-bandwidth applications such as optical power meters, fast laser triggers, instrumentation and simplified receivers for high-performance, short-range communication links.
Key features of the new HPR-1100BGH Hybrid PIN Receiver Module include:
- Built-in low noise amplifier
- Shielded J-FET amplifier for best SNR
- Large active area
- Wide spectral range
- RoHS compliant
“Excelitas’ HPR series builds upon the heritage of our HUV series based on our low-noise Silicon PIN photodiodes and will soon be expanded towards even longer wavelength design by integrating our InGaAs PIN devices. Having worked with several customers to integrate the HUV series into several high-reliability end products, we expect the HPR series to be a key component for development of short-range optical communication links, laser optical triggering, and instruments such as optical power meters. We look forward to working with customers to enable these novel designs,”
