High Definition Component Analyzer
Quick Overview
The recent High Definition Component Analyzer (HDCA) from Zepren Solutions starts to be a must for characterizing passive optical devices with the highest resolution and wavelength accuracy, the fastest measurement time and largest dynamic range. The spectra profile of insertion losses (IL), return losses (RL) and polarization dependent losses (PDL) of passive optical devices can be measured with femtometric resolution and fully automated.
HDCA is the ideal tool for manufacturers and developers of next generation passive components, including ring resonators, arrayed waveguide grating (AWG), quantum chips, wavelength selective switches (WSS), fiber Bragg gratings (FBG), photonic integrated circuits (PIC), or any Ultra-DWDM network components.
Subpicometer resolution (down to 2.4 fm point resolution).
Dynamic range: >85 dB in a single sweep.
Wavelength repeatability: ±0.15 pm.
Wavelength accuracy: ± 0.5 pm.
Wavelength range: T, O, S, C & L bands
PM and PDL option.
TE/TM spectra characterization.
External TLS compatible.
