Data Sheet
Description
The HFBR-0508Z Series consists
of a fiber-optic transmitter and
receiver operating at a 650 nm
wavelength (red). The HFBR-
1528Z transmitter is an LED in a
low cost plastic housing designed
to efficiently couple power into
200 µm diameter HCS and 1 mm
diameter POF. The HFBR-2528Z
receiver incorporates a PIN detec-
tor and digital output IC compat-
ible with CMOS and TTL logic
families.
HFBR-0508Z links operate from
DC to 10 MBd at distances up to
50 meters with 1 mm POF and up
to 500 meters with 200 µm HCS^®.
No minimum link distances are
required when using recom-
mended circuits, simplifying
design.
Versatile Link components can be
interlocked (N-plexed together) to
minimize space and to provide
dual connections with the duplex
connectors. Up to eight packages
can be interlocked and inserted
into a printed circuit board.
POF and HCS are available in pre-
connectored lengths or can be
easily field-terminated. A single
transmitter drive current for POF
and HCS allows both fibers to be
used with a single design.
Features
• RoHS-compliant
• Data transmission at signal rates
of dc to 10 MBd
• Up to 50 meters distances with 1
mm Plastic Optical Fiber (POF)
• Up to 500 meters distances with
200 µm Hard Clad Silica (HCS^®)
• Wide dynamic range receiver
allows operation from zero to
maximum link distance with a
single transmitter drive current
• Link distances specified for
variations in temperature, power
supply, and fiber attenuation
• DC coupled receiver with CMOS/
TTL output for easy designs: No
data encoding or digitizing
circuitry required
• Pulse width distortion controlled
to limit distortion from low duty
cycle or burst mode data
• High noise immunity
• Compatible with Avago’s versatile
link family of connectors, for easy
termination of fiber
Applications

automation
• Serial field buses
• Intra-system links; board-to-
board, rack-to-rack
• Extension of RS-232, RS-485
• Elimination of ground loops
• High voltage isolation
• Reduces voltage transient
susceptibility
