The ASE-C4-MR-17-2-FCA from Nuphoton Technologies, Inc. is a Supercontinuum Source that operates at a wavelength of 1530 nm - 1565 nm. It delivers an output power of 17 dBm and has a measurement accuracy of less than ± 0.5 dB (at 1550 nm). It has a polarization dependence below 0.3 dB and peak-to-peak spectral flatness of up to 2 dB. This microprocessor-controlled supercontinuum source operates in AOPC (constant output power control) and ACC (constant pump current control) modes. It has a 900 µm loose tube SMF-28 optical output fiber that supports FC/APC connectors. This amplified spontaneous emission source can be controlled via RS-232 & UART interfaces and has an induced spectral flattening filter. It requires a DC supply voltage of 5 V and is available in a package that measures 90 mm x 70 mm x 15 mm.
