Driven by a DC motor with an integrated encoder, the motorized variable optical delay line offers a high delay resolution of 1 fs for both 330 and 560 pico-second models. These motorized optical delay lines employ a compact and rugged package design that makes the device ideal for network equipment and test instrument integration. The delay lines can also be used in laboratories for precision optical path length control or timing alignment. The major applications include time division multiplexing (TDM), pulse alignment, optical spectrum analysis, and interferometry. The MDL Series can also be used to vary the modulation phase of reflections for the testing of reflection effects on transmitters. • Stand-alone and remote operation via RS-232 • Instant scan interruption and current position display • Electronic backlash compensation • Delay position readout in picosecond and millimeter • Relative zero position setting Applications • Passive time division multiplexing • TDM bit alignment • Fiber interferometers Specifications Ordering Information Single Mode Models Polarization Maintaining Models Wavelength Range (nm) 1260 to 1650 1310 & 1500-1600 Optical Delay Range (ps) 0 to 330 or 0 to 560 Optical Delay Resolution (fs) 1 Optical Delay Accuracy (ps) ± 0.01 (entire range) Optical Delay Repeatability (ps) ± 0.01 (entire range) Operation Modes Point-to-point, Continuous scan operation and PC control (RS-232) Insertion Loss, Typical (dB) 1.0 Return Loss (dB) 50 Extinction Ratio N/A >18 Polarization Dependent Loss, Maximum (dB) 0.1 dB Maximum Optical Power (mW) 300 Input Voltage 12 VDC/1A (Max) Operating Temperature Range (°C) 0 to 40 Storage Temperature Range (°C) -20 to 60 Fiber Type Corning SMF-28 Fujikura PM Panda fiber Dimensions [in.
