Description
The R2560A incorporates a high-speed planar PIN
diode to provide a highly reliable, high-power photo-
diode module. This module is well suited for receiver
applications with optical preamplification. The diode
is well matched over the operating frequency band,
thereby simplifying high-speed integration.
