Small Amplitude Modulator – NanoSpeed™

SKU: NSSM

The NS Series Fiber Optical Modulator is designed to provide a small level of analog modulation featuring high response linearity, low power consumption, and high speed. It is available for both polarization-insensitive and polarization-maintaining configurations. A driver with full attenuation is also available. This is achieved using a patent-pending non-mechanical configuration and activated via a voltage electrical control signal. The NS Series devices are designed to meet the most demanding operational requirements of ultra-high reliability, vacuum compatibility, vibration insensitivity, and fast response time with a minimal mechanical footprint. The modulator is bidirectional. It is available in either normally-transparent or normally-opaque configurations.

The device is controlled by + – 2.5V signals with a specially designed electronic driver having performance optimized for various repetition rates. We further offer customized electronic driver designs to meet special control requirements.
