LH0082 Datasheet | National Semiconductor

Description The LH0082 is a general purpose, low-noise, fiber optic receiver, which may also be used as a fast current to voltage converter, or as a high speed voltage amplifier. The circuit includes a 2GHz gain-bandwidth FET-input amplifier, a 2.4 volt reference, a parator with hysteresis, and all the necessary resistors and capacitors for feedback and coupling, all integrated in a hermetic dual In-line package. The large gain-bandwidth of the preamp enables fast response even with high capacitance photodiodes. A separate analog output permits the reception of analog signals to 20MHz via a fiber optic link. The internal parator converts a low level analog signal to a CMOS/TTLl DTL patible logic signal at data rates up to 15Mbits/s NRZ. The LH0082 can be used with an external parator at data rates to 50 Mbits/s. Features - Single 4.5 to 12 Volt Supply - DC to 50 Mbits/s NRZ Data Bandwidth -...
