XZP12T | 12 GHz Microwave Photodetector with Low-Noise TIA The XZP12T is a professional-grade 12 GHz Microwave Photodetector with TIA designed for reliable optical-to-electrical conversion. Our team integrated a high-speed 12 Gbps PIN photodiode and a low-noise transimpedance amplifier into a hermetic module. Consequently, the receiver supports optical transmissions up to 14 Gbps with exceptional signal integrity.

  • Broadband Performance: It offers a typical 12 GHz bandwidth with a consistently flat frequency response.

  • Integrated Low-Noise TIA: The built-in amplifier ensures high sensitivity for precise signal detection.

  • Hermetic Module Design: We house the device in a hermetic box to ensure long-term stability and protection.

  • Optimal Matching: Our design ensures the photodetector is well matched to 50 Ω for minimal signal reflection.

Description

XZP12T | Professional 12 GHz Microwave Photodetector with TIA

The XZP12T represents an essential tool for high-speed fiber optic communication systems. As a versatile 12 GHz Microwave Photodetector with TIA, it excels in converting optical data into accurate electrical signals. Specifically, our engineers combined a 12 Gbps PIN photodiode with a specialized low-noise transimpedance amplifier. This combination allows the device to operate at 14 Gbps optical transmission rates effortlessly. Therefore, the XZP12T provides the perfect balance of speed and sensitivity for modern data links.

🔬 High-Speed Detection and Sensitivity

This 12 GHz Microwave Photodetector with TIA focuses on maintaining high sensitivity at consistent data rates. A single-mode fiber supplies the optical input directly to the photodiode. Because the device features an integrated TIA, it achieves a very low noise floor. Consequently, it can process high-speed signals even in environments with challenging link budgets.

  • Flat Frequency Response: The system delivers a stable 12 GHz bandwidth.

  • Superior Sensitivity: The low-noise TIA enhances the detection of weak optical signals.

  • Robust Signal Output: The PIN technology offers fast response times. Thus, the receiver maintains excellent signal quality for 14 Gbps applications.

📡 Modular Design and Reliability

One significant advantage of this 12 GHz Microwave Photodetector with TIA is its durable packaging. We seal the components inside a hermetic box module. This design choice effectively protects the internal electronics from moisture and dust. Furthermore, the hermetic seal increases the lifespan of the device in various industrial settings.

The RF output is designed for high-frequency precision. Because our team prioritized signal integrity, the module matches a 50 Ω load perfectly. This reduces signal loss and ensures compatibility with standard microwave components. Additionally, the XZP12T supports current optical communication standards for telecommunications.

Why Choose XZP12T?

When your project requires a stable 12 GHz solution, the XZP12T provides unmatched reliability. It offers a flat response and an integrated low-noise amplifier. Moreover, the hermetic packaging ensures the device performs well in demanding conditions. By choosing this 12 GHz Microwave Photodetector with TIA, you invest in a precision instrument. Therefore, it delivers consistent and accurate results for all your microwave photonics needs.
