EXPERIMENT NO.

NAME:
Plot the P-I characteristics for 1310nm Laser source for the CW

OBJECTIVE:
To study and plot the P-I characteristics for 1310nm Laser source for the CW

EQUIPMENTS:
FOM-1D module, Optical Power Meter and Optical Patch cords.

PROCEDURE:
Referring to the Block Diagram,
1. Make sure that the FOM-1D module is off.
2. Keep Intensity Control pot fully anticlockwise.
3. Keep Signal Selector 1 Switch_1310nm on CW position.
4. Connect Optical O/P 1 to Optical power meter, using 1meter ST-ST fiber optic cable.
5. Turn ON the FOM-1D module. The Current display should show 00.0 and the voltage display
should show the garbage value.
6. Turn the Intensity Control pot slightly in clockwise direction, until the Current display shows
00.1mA.
7. Record the current in mA and the corresponding detected Optical Power (dB) in optical power
meter Repeat the procedure for current readings in steps of 00.1mA upto 45mA.
8. Record the current in mA and the corresponding detected Optical Power (dB) in optical power
meter.
9. Plot the graph for Current (mA) vs Detected Optical Power (dB). Find out the Threshold
Current (s) in mA from the P-I graph.
