10Gb/s Laser Diode with EA Modulator
ADE-208-1405A (Z)
Rev.1
Feb. 2002
Description
The HL1511AF is a 1.55
µm
InGaAsP distributed-feedback laser diode (DFB-LD) with a multi-quantum
well (MQW) structure. An electro-absorption (EA) modulator is integrated with the laser diode. It is
suitable as a light source for 10 Gb/s WDM systems up to 80 km.
