VCT-F85A32-SPLM
Description
The VCT-F85A32-SPLM is an 850nm single-mode polarization-locked VCSEL diode in a TO-46 package with flat window, designed for high-performance optical sensing and consumer electronics applications. It delivers a stable Gaussian beam profile with single transverse and longitudinal mode operation at low drive currents, ensuring consistent optical output and beam quality.
Featuring a built-in monitor photodiode with common anode pinout and polarization-locked emission (no switching below 8mA), the VCT-F85A32-SPLM provides reliable performance over a wide temperature range from -20°C to 85°C. With bandwidth exceeding 1GHz, this diode is ideal for high-speed, compact optical systems requiring precision and stability.
