Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser in TO-46 Package Features • • • • • • • • • Attenuated Optics 850 nm VCSEL technology High thermal stability Up to 1.25 Gbps Recommended for multimode fiber applications Microbead lens Pin out and attenuation options available on request Burned in for communication level reliability High optical coupling to MM fiber Absolute Maximum Ratings (TA = 25° C unless otherwise noted) Description The OPV215 is a high performance 850nm VCSEL packaged for high speed communication links. OPV215 combines all the performance advantages of a VCSEL with the addition of a power monitor diode for precise control of optical power and about 30% optical attenuation for noise suppression. The OPV215Y is identical electrically and optically and differs only in pin out. Refer to mechanical drawings for details. Maximum Reverse Voltage Storage Temperature Operating Temperature Soldering Lead Temperature 5 Volts -40 to +125°C -40 to +85° C 260° C for 10 Seconds Max. Continuous Optical Power at 70°C 0.8 mW This product’s combination of features including high speed, high output power and concentric beam make it an ideal transmitter for integration into all types of data communications equipment. Applications include: ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Additional laser safety information can be found on the Optek website. See application #221. Classification is not marked on the device due to space limitations. See package outline for centerline of optical radiance. Operating devices beyond maximum rating may cause devices to exceed rated classification Fibre Channel Gigabit Ethernet ATM VSR (Very Short Reach) Intra-system links Optical backplane interconnects.

Line 1 from 6 mA to 8 mA. Line 2 from 0 mA to 2 mA. (2) Series Resistance is the slope of the Voltage-Current line from 8 to 12 mA. (3) Slope efficiency, is the slope of the best fit LI line from 8 mA to 12 mA using no larger than .5 mA test interval points. (4) Using data points taken from slope efficiency, delta L/ delta I is calculated for each adjacent pair of 0.5mA points. The minimum is 0.0 ( no negative values allowed) Optek reserves the right to make changes at any time in order to improve design and to supply the best product possible. Optek Technology, Inc.
