Fiber Optic Trainer Kits

Listing ID #3384467

Optical communication has many advantages over the traditional electrical counterparts. It is insensitive to electromagnetic interference, it offers ground and voltage isolation between the transmitter and the receiver, it provides security from tapping and there will be no sparking at the connecting ends.
This trainer uses LEDs in visible range (660 nM) as transmitter, fast PIN-Photodiodes as receiver. A Plastic Optic Fiber (POF) is used as the channel connecting light signal from the transmitter to the receiver. Each of the transmitter and receiver are placed in a PCB mountable plastic housing. A 2.2 mm aperture is provided to hold standard 1000 micron POF. No fiber stripping is required. Microlens is a part of the housing.
