Chapter 2 Description
The PDA05CF2 is an amplified, Indium Gallium Arsenide (InGaAs) detector
designed for detection of light signals ranging from 800 to 1700 nm. A buffered
output drives 50
Ω load impedances up to 5 V. The PDA05CF2 housing includes
a removable threaded coupler (SM1T1) and retainer ring (SM1RR) that is
compatible with any number of Thorlabs 1” threaded accessories. This allows
convenient mounting of external optics, light filters, apertures, as well as
providing an easy mounting mechanism using Thorlabs
