SKU: VOAM
The VOAM Series of MEMS Fiber Optical Variable Attenuators (VOAs) are designed with an electrostatic rotating mirror, hermetically sealed with nitrogen for high reliability. These attenuators offer excellent repeatability, fast response, low power consumption, and cost-effectiveness. The optical attenuation is controlled by applying a voltage between 0-6V to the drive pin, and the device returns to its default state when power is removed. The VOAM has a capacitive electrical characteristic without polarity and can be mounted directly on printed circuit boards. These VOAs are bidirectional and comply with RoHS requirements and Telcordia GR1221 standards. A premium grade is available, offering low insertion loss of less than 0.5dB.
Agiltron also provides custom designs and modular assemblies to meet specific control and integration needs. For space applications, our 1D versions meet the qualification requirements.
