HFBR-0528Z

The HFBR-0528Z is an evaluation and demonstration board and kit, designed to aid in the development of fiber optic communication systems. It is composed of a single board with a PLL (phase-locked loop) transceiver in the center and two optical fiber connectivity points at the edges. The board provides an easy-to-use solution for applications which require both bi-directional optical data transfers as well as clock synchronization. Additionally, the HFBR-0528Z features a low cost, fast time to market, and optimal integration of components.

The device features a dual-source, low-bandwidth NIM (Network Interface Module) for both upstream and downstream data and clock transfer. The NIM supports both Serial and Parallel modes, thereby allowing for simple clock synchronization or loopback for clock distortion testing. The board also supports a variety of data rates and bit lengths (2-16 bits per byte) to help meet system performance requirements. Finally, the HFBR-0528Z offers a universal power supply input as well as hot-swap capabilities to ensure continued operation even during power outages.

The working principle of HFBR-0528Z is based on the synchronization of a high-frequency PLL (phase-locked loop) transceiver with an external clock source. The PLL works by multiplying the frequency of an incoming signal in order to create a higher frequency signal that is required for the transmission of data through an optical medium. The PLL allows for the device to remain synchronized with any compatible external clock source. In addition, the high-speed data rates supported by the HFBR-0528Z (up to 16 bits per byte) are possible due to the accuracy of the transceiver and its ability to drive high data speeds without losses in performance.

The practical application of the HFBR-0528Z is in the fields of fiber communications and optical sensing. The board is designed to provide for accurate synchronization and data transmission within local or wide area networks. Its low cost, easy-to-use solution has made it popular for use in numerous fiber optic applications such as Local Area Networks (LANs), Wide Area Networks (WANs), and Voice over IP (VoIP) networks. Additionally, the device has become increasingly popular in optical sensing applications due to its ability to allow for fast clock synchronization and data transfers.

In conclusion, the HFBR-0528Z is an evaluation and demonstration board and kit designed to help developers create fiber optic communication systems quickly and easily. The board is comprised of a single board, a PLL transceiver in the center, and two optical fiber connectivity points at the edges. The device is used for applications which require bi-directional optical data transfers and clock synchronization. The HFBR-0528Z features a low cost, fast time to market, and optimal integration of components, making it an ideal solution for both fiber communications and optical sensing applications.
