HFBR-0501 Series
Versatile Link
The Versatile Fiber Optic Connection
Data Sheet
Description
The Versatile Link series is a complete family of fiber
optic link components for applications requiring a low
cost solution. The HFBR-0501 series includes
transmitters, receivers, connectors and cable specified
for easy design. This series of components is ideal for
solving problems with voltage isolation/insulation,
EMI/RFI immunity or data security. The optical link design
is simplified by the logic compatible receivers and
complete specifications for each component. The key
optical and electrical parameters of links configured with
the HFBR-0501 family are fully guaranteed from 0° to
70°C.
A wide variety of package configurations and connectors
provide the designer with numerous mechanical solutions
to meet application requirements. The transmitter and
receiver components have been designed for use in high
volume/low cost assembly processes such as auto
insertion and wave soldering.
Transmitters incorporate a 660 nm LED. Receivers
include a monolithic dc coupled, digital IC receiver with
open collector Schottky output transistor. An internal
pullup resistor is available for use in the HFBR-25X1/2/4
receivers. A shield has been integrated into the receiver
IC to provide additional, localized noise immunity.
Internal optics have been optimized for use with 1 mm
diameter plastic optical fiber. Versatile Link specifications
incorporate all connector interface losses. Therefore,
optical calculations for common link applications are
simplified.
