ACS401 - Acapella Optical Modem

General Description

The ACS401 is a complete optical-modem controller/ driver/receiver IC, supporting various user programmable, fullduplex, synchronous data rates to 128 kbps over a single fiber.

Key Features

  • Enables up to four full-duplex serial transmission channels through a single fiber optic cable, providing eight virtual fiber paths.
  • Two additional low speed handshake signals.
  • Supports Ping Pong LED (PPLED) and LASER Duplex Devices (LDD) for single fiber.

Acapella Optical Modem IC ACS401 Main Features: * Enables up to four full-duplex serial transmission channels through a single fiber optic cable, providing eight virtual fiber paths. * Two additional low speed handshake signals. * Supports Ping Pong LED (PPLED) and LASER Duplex Devices (LDD) for single fiber applications or dual fiber applications using low cost LED/LASER emitters and PIN Diode receiver. * Link lengths up to 95 km with appropriate Laser. * Maximum data rate 128 kbps - optimised for talk-set applications. * Typical 7 mA (average) current consumption, including LASER drive current. * Digital mode, allowing the user to add an external amplifier. Also enables the ACS401 to be used in non-fiber applications. * Bit Error Rate (BER) of 10-9 Equivalent block diagram of ACS401.
