AFBR-POC306A1

AFBR-POC306A1 belongs to the Broadcom® Power Components product family. The device converts optical power to electrical power for applications that require complete electrical isolation in highly demanding industrial environments and applications. The AFBR-POC306A1 is an excellent choice for powering electronic circuitry where electrical wired solutions are not feasible due to high voltage, electromagnetic interference, or strong magnetic fields. The AFBR-POC306A1 is based on a patented multijunction compound semiconductor device that is optimized for an optical input wavelength range of 800nm to 830nm. Its output voltage is above 5VDC for a wide range of applications. Up to 3W of electrical power can be delivered by converting the optical input power provided over optical fibre from a high-power laser diode. The optical power converter features a nearly linear response to the optical input over a wide temperature range.
