PARIS -- Kylia today launches an ultra fast version of DPSK demodulator. Kylia extends its micro-interferometer range mint-1x2. A piezo actuator ensures a time constant of 0.1s for compensation of very quick signal frequency variation. For comparison, the today market proposes time constant not shorter than 5 seconds.

The ultra fast version will be packaged into the same package than standard DSPK demodulator: 50 x 42 x 12 mm. Standard tunable mint-1x2 is controlled by a voltage of 0-5V in order to actively tune the delay. For both tunable versions, the delay tuning allows a frequency shift of one FSR (Free Spectral range). Mint-1x2 shows an impressive accuracy along the entire C band. Finally, the ultra fast version inherits from the all mint-1x2 family of an incomparable optical path delay between receiving ports of 0.1 ps. Thanks to its very low PDFS, the combination of two mint-1x2 is an ideal candidate for DQPSK demodulation.
