The Versatile Link series is a complete family of fiber optic link components that require low-cost applications, and the HFBR-0501 series includes transmitters, receivers, connectors, and cables that provide easy design, and are ideal for solving voltage isolation, isolation, EMI/RFI immunity, and data security. Optical link design is simplified with logic-compatible receivers and full specifications for each component, and critical link optical and electrical parameters of the HFBR-0501 series can be guaranteed from 0°C to 70°C.
A wide selection of package configurations and connectors provide design engineers with a variety of mechanisms to meet application requirements, and transmitter and receiver assemblies are designed for high-volume, low-cost assembly programs such as auto-insertion and wave soldering.
The transmitter contains a 660nm LED, the receiver contains a single-stone DC-coupled digital chip receiver with an open-collector Schottky output transistor, and the HFBR-25x1/2/4 receiver has an internal pull-up resistor and integrated shielding in the receiver chip for higher local noise immunity.
Internal optics simplify optical calculations for common link applications by optimally paired with a 1mm diameter plastic fiber, and the Versatile Link specification accounts for all connector interface losses.
