0-40dB Single-Channel Micro MEMS Variable Optical Attenuator

The FT-3952 from F-tone Networks is a single-channel micro MEMS variable optical attenuator with an extended 0 to 40 dB range for dynamically configurable optical networks. A movable mirror on the silicon MEMS chip steers the input laser beam onto the output fiber, and the applied 6.5 V drive voltage controls the mirror tilt angle to set the exact attenuation level. Operating wavelength spans 1260 to 1620 nm. Maximum insertion loss is 0.7 dB and polarization dependent loss stays within 0.15 dB. The hermetically sealed micro package measures 16 x Phi5.4 mm, operates from -5 to 70 degrees C and consumes only 10 mW.
