Description
The OPV315 is a high performance 850nm VCSEL pack-
aged for high speed communication links. OPV315 com-
bines all the performance advantages of a VCSEL with
the addition of a power monitor diode for precise control
of optical power.
The OPV315Y is identical electrically and optically and
differs only in pin out. Refer to mechanical drawings for
details.
Features including high speed, high output power and
concentric beam makes it an ideal transmitter for integra-
tion into all types of data communications equipment.
Applications include:
♦ Fibre Channel
♦ Gigabit Ethernet
♦ ATM
♦ VSR
♦ Intra-system links
♦ Optical backplane interconnects.
