  • 1310nm 24dBm BOA Fiber-Coupled Booster Semiconductor Optical Amplifier

    Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA) / Booster Optical Amplifier (BOA)Booster Optical Amplifiers (BOA) are amplifiers that employ semiconductors as the gain medium. They feature a structure similar to Fabry-Pérot laser diodes, with anti-reflection design structures on the end facets. Modern designs adopt anti-reflection coatings, tilted waveguides and window regions, which can reduce facet reflectivity to below 0.001%. This results in higher cavity power loss than gain, preventing the amplifier from lasing.

    Product features:Fiber-coupled design; high output power; low-noise amplification; wide wavelength optimization; stable and reliable

    Part Number:MP-BOA-1310-200-50-XA

    Application area:Fiber Communication | LiDAR | Sensing Network | Medical Laser | Industrial Processing

    Safety and Operating Guidelines

    The light emitted by this device is invisible and may be harmful to human eyes. Avoid direct viewing of the fiber connector during device operation. Appropriate laser safety goggles must be worn when operating with the connector uncovered.

    The absolute maximum ratings apply to the BOA only for short-term operation. Long-term operation under maximum ratings, or simultaneous exposure to multiple maximum ratings, may cause device damage and degrade reliability. Operating the BOA beyond the maximum ratings may result in device failure and potential safety hazards. The matched power supply for the component must be used to ensure the maximum forward current is not exceeded.

    The BOA mounted on a heat spreader requires a proper heat sink. The BOA shall be fixed to the heat sink with four screws (fastened in a cross pattern with an initial torque of 0.075 N·m and a final torque of 0.15 N·m) or clamps. The flatness deviation of the heat sink surface shall be less than 0.05 mm. Indium foil or flexible thermal interface materials are recommended between the device base and the heat sink. Thermal grease is not recommended for this application.

    Do not pull the optical fiber. Do not bend the fiber with a bending radius less than 3 cm. Always use clean fiber connectors when operating the BOA. Inspect and clean the connectors regularly if necessary. For cleaning, use cleanroom-compatible wipes dampened with isopropyl alcohol to carefully clean the connector end-face, or use professional fiber cleaning tools. Turn off the BOA driving current before cleaning.

    Electrostatic discharge (ESD) may cause permanent device failure. Necessary anti-static protection measures must be taken at all times.
