Versatile Link Fiber-Optic Transmitter
HBBR-1521Z Fiber Link is able to transmit TTL data up to 5Mbaud@53meter distance. It uses a 5V supply, 660nm LED and it has High EMI immunity and voltage isolation.
This module enables users to establish a versatile fiber-optic link for applications requiring a low-cost/high immunity solution. It transmits TTL source data over a fiber-optic connection, supporting transmission distances of up to 19 meters with standard fiber-optic cable and up to 53 meters with enhanced cable.
Designed for a 5V power supply, the transmitter supports TTL input data rates of up to 5 Mbaud. Typical applications include systems that require voltage isolation/insulation, EMI/RFI immunity, or enhanced data security. The design of the optical link is simplified by logic-compatible receivers and complete specifications provided for each component.
The transmitter incorporates a 660-nm LED. IC U1 and resistor R1 supply the majority of the drive current to the LED. The design uses the HBBR-1521Z transmitter module, which supports data rates up to 5 Mbaud. For applications requiring different data rates, refer to the provided table for suitable replacement modules supporting both lower and higher speeds.
