Features
 |
One analog plus four digital channels |
 |
DC to 25 MHz analog bandwidth |
 |
Input ranges of ± 1 V and ± 5 V |
 |
Analog signal digitised to 12 bit precision |
 |
Four independent digital (TTL) channels |
 |
DC to 48 Mb/s data rate (each channel) |
The LTX-5515 enables the precise conveyance of one
analog channel plus four digital channels of information over fibre optic links
ranging from metres to more than 10 kilometres.
Incoming analogue data is digitised to 12-bit precision
at 100 megasamples per second and transmitted over optical fiber at one
giga-bit per second. The receiver acquires this digital data and accurately
reconstructs the analog signal at the far end of the fibre optic link.
The analogue signal bandwidth is from DC to 25 MHz (-3
dB ). Two input voltage ranges are provided, ± 1 Volt and ± 5
Volts. The input impedance of the transmitter analogue channel may be set to 50
ohms or 1 Mohm (75 ohms is optional).
Multiplexed along with the analogue data, are four
independent TTL/CMOS/LVTTL digital signals that may be toggled at rates of up
to 48 Mb/s.
Two models are available. Selection depends on the
fibre type and the length of the fiber optic link that is required. The
LTX-5515 (850 nm MM) transmits at 850 nm over multi-mode fiber optic links of
up to 250 metres in length, while the LTX-5515 (1310 nm SM) transmits at 1310
nm over single-mode fiber to span distances exceeding 10 km.
Applications include data acquisition for plasma
physics experiments, signal transmission and control of equipment at high
voltage potentials, transmission of high quality video, and precise noise-free
signal transmission in hostile EMI environments.
