ICRX2 Datasheet, PDF (1/1 Pages) AVAGO TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED – Small Form Factor Integrated Coherent Receiver

ICRX2 Series
Small Form Factor Integrated Coherent Receiver
Product Brief
Description
Avago Technologies’ ICRX2 Series Small Form Factor
Integrated Coherent Receiver integrates signal and
local oscillator polarization splitters, two matched
90° optical hybrids, four high speed balanced detec-
tor pairs and four differential in/out linear TIAs with
manual and automatic gain control in a single com-
pact surface-mount package. The signal input in-
cludes an integrated signal tap with monitor photo-
diode (MPD) and a variable optical attenuator (VOA)
to enable operation at higher input optical powers
found in “colorless” applications. The receiver makes
use of Avago’s extensive portfolio of high speed InP
based balanced photodetectors (PDs) and Silica Pla-
nar Lightguide Circuit (PLC) device technology for
the 90° hybrid mixers. It also leverages Avago’s auto-
mated hybrid integration platform for mounting the
balanced PDs directly onto the PLC chip to provide a
highly integrated optical hybrid chip for high perfor-
mance in a very small footprint.
