Celeritek's new wideband GaAs amplifier is an excellent solution for external Lithium Niobate modulators. The product is produced on Celeritek's high frequency, sub 0.25 micron stepper-based pHEMT process.
Data bandwidth continues to be the core focus for both our wireless and fiber strategies.
The CMM3020-BD optical driver amplifier gives fiber optic system designers a unique combination of wideband frequency coverage, along with a flat response and very low internal jitter. It is a precision pHEMT GaAs RF IC medium power 23 dBm amplifier. It operates from 30 KHz to 20 GHz with a linear 10 dB gain response. Low internal jitter makes it especially well suited for high speed digital data applications. It is an excellent choice for driving Lithium Niobate external optical modulators, where a high extinction ratio is necessary.
