Avago unveils industrial fiber-optic products at PCIM

At PCIM (Power Conversion Intelligent Motion) Europe 2015 in Nuremberg, Germany (19-21 May), Avago Technologies Ltd (a designer and supplier of III-V-based analog interface components for wireless, wireline, storage and industrial applications) unveiled an array of new industrial fiber-optic products targeting renewable energy, industrial motor drive and transportation applications, including the following:

AFBR-59FxZ – compact 650nm POF transceivers with bare fiber locking system

• supports serial data communications from 100Mbps to 1Gbps;
• bare fiber locking mechanism, eliminating the need for connectors;
• footprint comparable to RJ-45 connector.

AFBR-25x1CZ – enhanced 650nm versatile link fiber-optic receivers

• supports data rates from DC to 5MBd with superior EMI performance;
• link distances up to 50m using 1mm 0.5NA plastic optical fiber (POF) and 500m using 200μm 0.37NA plastic clad silica (PCS) fiber;
• operates in 3.3V or 5V supply with TTL data output;
• available in horizontal, vertical and 30°-tilted packages.

AFBR-3905xxRZ/3950xxRZ – high-voltage galvanic insulation links

• Suppresses transient peak voltages up to 50kV per IEC 60664-1 specification;
• Available in 1-, 2-, 3- and 4-inch length;
• Supports data rates from DC to 5MBd (AFBR-3905xxRZ);
• Supports data rates from DC to 50MBd (AFBR-3950xxRZ);
• Suitable for high-voltage on-board insulation in applications such as power distribution, smart grid, and industrial inverters and motor drives.

Samples of the AFBR-3905xxRZ, AFBR-3950xxRZ, AFBR-59FxZ, AFBR-25x1CZ and evaluation boards are available now.
