Lightwave Component Analyzers

Lightwave Component Analyzers for Component Characterization

Lightwave component analyzers characterize electrical and optical components through amplitude-frequency response, phase-frequency response, bandwidth and group-delay measurements. The XLA-6433D/F/H/L platform combines E/E, E/O, O/E and O/O measurement modes with guided electrical and optical-path calibration, multi-window S11 and S21 analysis, and fixture de-embedding.

Applications include electro-optical modulators, directly modulated lasers, PIN and APD photodetectors, optical transmitters and receivers, and passive optical components. Start with the device conversion path, working wavelength, optical input power and calibration workflow.

Confirm the selected model's modulation-frequency range and ordering configuration when requesting a quotation, as the technical specifications and ordering information state different upper frequency limits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which measurements does the XLA-6433D/F/H/L support?
The XLA-6433D/F/H/L supports E/E, E/O, O/E and O/O component measurements. Its analysis includes amplitude-frequency response, phase-frequency response, bandwidth and group delay, with guided electrical and optical-path calibration and fixture de-embedding for the measurement setup.
How should I select the modulation-frequency range?
Specify the required modulation-frequency range when requesting a quotation. XLA-6433D, F, H and L have model-specific frequency specifications, and the technical specifications and ordering information state different upper limits. Confirm the selected model's operating range and ordering configuration before purchase.
Are optical input safety limits the same as measurement ranges?
The limits are different. Input 1 measures average optical power from -35 dBm to +5 dBm and has a +7 dBm maximum safe average input power. Input 2 measures -25 dBm to +15 dBm and has a +17 dBm maximum safe average input power. Check the intended port and signal level before defining the test.
