Abstract :
An ultra-low profile (ULP) fiber-optic transmitter has been developed to meet the demanding requirements of military avionic applications. The package meets the 0.120-in height requirement of military avionic standard electronic modules (SEMs). The optical design allows a removable connector and provides efficient fiber coupling over a wide temperature range. The electrical design provides temperature-compensated wide-bandwidth laser modulation from -55 to 125°C. The electronics provide laser modulation up to 1.4 GHz and temperature compensation of optical power within 0.25 dB
