11-18 Bit Variable Fiber Optical Time Delay Line (17-Bits)

11-18 Bit Variable Fiber Optical Time Delay Line (17-Bits)

MSE Supplies offers 11-18 Bit Variable Fiber Optical Time Delay Line (17-Bits). This series18-bit Photonic Time Delay digitally varies the delay time inside a fiber with an exceptionally large range (maximum delay) and precision (bit). It selectively routes optical signals through N fiber loops whose lengths increase successively by a power of 2. Since each switching element allows the signal to either pass or bypass a fiber loop, a delay T may be inserted, which can take any value (in increments of DT) up to the maximum value T.
