Teradyne
Photon 100
What it is
The Teradyne Photon 100 is an optical test system.[1]
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedOptical test systems integrate optical sources, measurement instruments, and control software to perform automated tests on devices under test.
Measurements may include insertion loss, return loss, polarization-dependent loss, and optical spectrum analysis.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedIn the production of optical components, test systems are employed after assembly for final performance verification and quality control.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedTypical applications include testing of optical transceivers, amplifiers, passive splitters, and wavelength-division multiplexing devices.
