LSAOL – Laser Powered Analog Optical Links

The LSAOL 1.0/1.1 Laser-Powered Analog Optical Links with integrated pre-amplifiers
are low-noise RF signal transmission systems for 9 kHz to 6 GHz.
They are ideally suited for EMC emission testing. The need for batteries is eliminated through laser-powered operation.

LSAOL 1.0/1.1 consist of a Front Unit and a Base Unit. The signal is picked up by the Front Unit, transmitted optically,
and converted back to an electrical signal by the Base Unit, which is typically analyzed using an EMC test receiver.

The LSAOL Front Unit is laser-powered and equipped with both, low and high band pre-amplifiers, which can be turned
off. LSAOL 1.0 provides an adjustable, 5 V to 12 V phantom power supply delivering up to 2W to external devices such
as active antennas.

Features

  • Frequency range from 9 kHz – 6 GHz
  • Low noise RF signal transmission systems
  • Integrated low band and high band pre-amplifiers
  • Laser powered, no batteries needed
  • 5V to 12V phantom power supply available

Advantages

  • Ideally suited for EMC emission testing
  • Low noise (e.g. for CISPR 25 measurements)
  • High dynamic range and large-signal immunity
  • Active overload detection
  • In-system gain verification
