DataSheet
Description
Features
The Versatile Link series is a complete family of fiber • Low cost fiber optic components
optic link components for applications requiring a low
cost solution. The HFBR-0501 series includes
transmitters, receivers, connectors and cable specified
for easy design. This series of components is ideal for
solving problems with voltage isolation/insulation,
EMI/RFIimmunityordata security. The opticallinkdesign
is simplified by the logic compatible receivers and
complete specifications for each component. The key
opticaland electricalparameters oflinks configured with
the HFBR-0501 family are fully guaranteed from 0° to
70°C.
• Enhanced digital links dc-5 MBd
• Extended distance links up to 120 m at 40 kBd
• Low current link: 6 mA peak supply current
• Horizontal and vertical mounting
• Interlocking feature
• High noise immunity
• Easy connectoring Simplex, Duplex, and Latching
connectors
• Flame retardant

visibility
Awide varietyofpackage configurations and connectors
provide the designerwith numerousmechanicalsolutions
to meet application requirements. The transmitter and
receivercomponents have been designed foruse in high
volume/low cost assembly processes such as auto
insertion and wave soldering.
• Compatible with standard TTL circuitry
Applications
• Reduction of lightning/voltage transient susceptibility
• Motor controller triggering
• Data communications and local area networks
• Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) for regulated
systems: FCC, VDE, CSA, etc.
Transmitters incorporate a 660 nm LED. Receivers
include a monolithic dc coupled, digital IC receiver with
open collector Schottky output transistor. An internal
pullup resistor is available for use in the HFBR-25X1/2/4
• Tempest-secure data processing equipment
receivers. A shield has been integrated into the receiver • Isolation in test and measurement instruments
IC to provide additional, localized noise immunity.
• Error free signalling for industrial and manufacturing
equipment
Internal optics have been optimized for use with 1 mm
diameterplasticopticalfiber.Versatile Linkspecifications
incorporate all connector interface losses. Therefore,
optical calculations for common link applications are
simplified.
• Automotive communications and control networks
• Noise immune communication in audio and video
equipment
