PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The ANADIGICS ATA06212A is a 5V low noise transimpedance amplifier with AGC designed to be used in OC-12/STM-4 fiber optic links. The device is used in conjunction with a photodetector (PIN diode or avalanche photodiode) to convert an optical signal into an output voltage. The ATA06212A offers a bandwidth of 425MHz and a dynamic range of 35dB. It is manufactured in a GaAs MESFET process and is available in bare die form.
