What is BS EN IEC 62148‑19 - Photonic chip-scale package about?
BS EN IEC 62148 is a series on fibre optic active components and devices. Active devices are electronic components made up of semiconductor materials that actively manipulate electrons to perform the intended function. The purpose of BS EN IEC 62148‑19 is to specify adequately the physical requirements of optical transmitters and receivers that will enable the mechanical interchangeability of transmitters and receivers.
Who is BS EN IEC 62148‑19 - Photonic chip-scale package for?
BS EN IEC 62148‑19 on fibre optic active components and devices is useful for:
- Telecommunication equipment manufacturers
- Telecommunication component manufacturers
- Design engineers
- Quality control personnel
- Research and development facilities
Why should you use BS EN IEC 62148‑19 - Photonic chip-scale package?
Fibre optic active components and devices require a source of energy to operate and have an output that is a function of present and past input signals. BS EN IEC 62148‑19 specifies the physical requirements of a photonic chip-scale package that will enable mechanical interchangeability of modules complying with BS EN IEC 62148‑19, both for the PCB and for any panel mounting requirement. A photonic chip-scale package is used to convert electrical signals into optical signals and vice versa. BS EN IEC 62148‑19 covers the physical interface for photonic chip-scale packages. These modules are designed for use with free space optics or multiple channel optical fibre connectors. The optical interface in BS EN IEC 62148‑19 defines only the basic functionality of each optical terminal. The channel spacing of the optical interface has two options of 0,25 mm and 0,125 mm. The photonic chip-scale package specified in BS EN IEC 62148‑19 is classified as type 5 according to the definitions of IEC 62148-1. Using BS EN IEC 62148‑19 you can specify adequately the physical requirements of optical transmitters and receivers.
