Alcatel 1912 AWG 16 channels 100 GHz DWDM Multiplexers/ DeMultiplexers Description Features The Alcatel 1912 AWG (Arrayed Waveguide Grating) is designed for DWDM systems and belongs to a family of high performance optical routing devices. This component offers an alternative to expensive upgrades by eliminating the cost associated with installing additional fibers. Based on SiO2/Si planar technology, the AWG chip consists of a number of arrayed channel waveguides functioning as diffraction gratings. Compared to other technologies, the AWG structure offers much narrower wavelength channel spacing in ITU channel allocation, high manufacturability and stability, low cross-talk, much smaller insertion loss, long-term reliability and low per-channel cost. • • • • • • Narrow and accurate channel spacing Low, uniform insertion loss Low cross-talk Polarization insensitivity High stability and reliability Temperature stabilization heater Applications • • • • DWDM transmission DWDM based add/drop multiplexing Wavelength-selective routing Optical signal processing Specifications Parameter Number of channel Channel spacing Band profile Center Wavelengths Center Wavelength accuracy Free Spectral Range -1dB bandwidth -3dB bandwidth Insertion Loss Insertion Loss uniformity Polarization sensitivity Cross-talk in adjacent channel Cross-talk in non-adjacent channel Total Cross-talk Optical Return Loss Directivity Polarization Dependent Loss Temperature Stability Temperature Sensitivity Long term stability Symb. ∆f CW ∆CW FSR ∆λ1dB ∆λ3dB IL ∆IL XTa XTn XTt Rl D PDL Min Max 16 100 Flat top ITU grid ±5 ≥2010 0.24 0.48 40 -0.5 -1.3 - 7 1.5 0.03 -25 -30 -22 -40 0.5 0.5 1.3 12.5 Units Comment GHz nm GHz GHz nm nm dB dB nm dB dB dB dB dB dB dB GHz GHz @ ITU wavelengths @ ITU wavelengths @ ITU wavelengths from -5 to 70°C from -5 to 70°C Absolute maximum ratings Parameter Operating case temperature Storage temperature Min -5 -40 Max +70 +85 Unit °C °C AWG DWDM Multiplexer/DeMultiplexer Schematic 100 90 9 x 2.54 38.57 10 4 10 5 1 M2.5 15. 5 43 M2.5 bottom view 8.5 10.5 1.2 10 1 4.7 side view Pin Out N° 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Description Positive lead of external temperature controller dc output Negative lead of external temperature controller dc output S3 lead to device temperature sensor S2 lead to device temperature sensor S1 lead to device temperature sensor NC S1 lead to device over temperature sensor S2 lead to device over temperature sensor S3 lead to device over temperature sensor NC 16 48 Ordering information Alcatel 1912 AWG Band C band (low) C band (high) L band (low) L band (high) Standard package Code 3CN 00464 AAAA 3CN 00464 ABAA 3CN 00464 ACAA 3CN 00464 ADAA December 2000 (version1) Copyright © 2001 Alcatel Optronics Customized versions are available for large quantities.
