FOR100B Datasheet (National Semiconductor)

FOR100B, Fiber-Optic Receiver

The FOR100B is a general-purpose fiber-optic receiver.

It contains a low-capacitance pin photodiode, FET-input transimpedance preamplifier and a comparator with hysteresis.

An integral self-aligning bayonet-style connector simplifies and ensures reliable optical coupling.
