Description
This unique Resonant Cavity Surface-Emitting LED
(RCLED) is designed for optical communications over
Plastic Optical Fiber (POF) in applications such as
IEEE1394b (S100, S200) and 155 Mbps ATM. For
very high speed operation, i.e. above 200 Mbps, an
electrical pre-emphasis circuit is recommended to
increase the bandwidth of the device. ZL60003 is also
well suited for applications where visible light is
required, such as in sensing and positioning.
