CASE STUDY

OTDR: Low noise front end design

UTEL’s flagship product, the U-Test OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometer), is a world-class piece of optical test equipment which incorporates a level of functionality which is unrivalled. This required a specialised approach to design

HIGH GAIN

In order to achieve the sensitivity required of the OTDR we required a very high gain analogue front end

LOW NOISE

To make use of the high gain front end it was essential that it was designed to also be very low noise

HIGH BANDWIDTH

It was essential to the design that we achieved the holy trinity of analogue design, also implementing a high bandwidth amplifier

FPGA INTERFACE

The high performance gained from the analogue front end is then interfaced to our FPGA processor – HDL programmed in house

Real world experience

Having designed, manufactured, tested, distributed and marketed their own products in a challenging field (telecoms) UTEL have a wealth of real-world experience to bring to your project
