THORLABS PDA20CS2 - Chapter 6 Specifications

InGaAs Switchable Gain Detector Chapter 6: Specifications
Rev D, April 21, 2020 Page 7
Chapter 6 Specifications
All performance specifications are typical, performed at 25 °C ambient temperature,
and assume a 50 Ω load, unless stated otherwise.
2
The PDA20CS2 has a 50 Ω series terminator resistor (i.e. in series with amplifier output). This
forms a voltage divider with any load impedance (e.g. 50 Ω load divides signal in half).
3
Tested at 1550 nm wavelength.
