LTX-5510
“Signal Transporter”
E/O - O/E Converter Pair

Benefits
Transmits analog and digital simultaneously
DC to 12. 5 MHz analog bandwidth
Two input ranges, +/- 1 V and +/- 5 V
Analog signal digitized to 12 bit precision
Four independent digital channels
DC to 20 MHz digital bandwidth

The LTX-5510 enables the precise conveyance
of analog plus four channels of digital information over fiber optic links ranging from meters to
more than 10 kilometers.

Multiplexed along with the analog data, are four
independent TTL/CMOS/LVTTL digital signals
that may be toggled at rates in excess of 20
MHz.

Incoming analog data is digitized to 12-bit
precision at 50 mega-samples per second and
transmitted over optical fiber at a 1 Gb/s data
rate. The receiver acquires this digital data and
accurately reconstructs the analog signal at the
far end of the fiber optic link.

Two models are available. Selection depends on
the fiber type and the length of the fiber optic link
that is required. The LTX-5510-850 transmits at
850 nM over multi-mode fiber optic links of up to
500 meters in length, while the LTX-5510-1310
transmits at 1310 nm over single-mode fiber to
cover distances in excess of 10 kilometers.

The analog signal bandwidth is from DC to 12.5
MHz (-3 dB ). Two input voltage ranges are
provided, +/- 1 Volt and +/- 5 Volts. The input
impedance of the transmitter analog channel may
be set to 50 ohms or 1 megohm (75 ohms is
optional).

Applications include data acquistion for plasma
physics experiments, signal transmission and
control of equipment at high voltage potentials,
transmission of high quality video, and precise
noise-free signal transmission in hostile EMI
environments.
