This trainer is intended to study the analog data transmission principles. Although most fiber optic systems are digital in format, there are few analog applications. Designing an LED / LASER driver for an analog fiber optic system is comparable to designing an electronics CLASS-A amplifier.

Study of Fiber Transmission circuits includes, and Calculation of 3dB bandwidth. This trainer includes an analog transmitter, transmitting media, and a receiver.
The analog transmitter consists of an LED (680 nm) / IR emitter (800nm) as an optical driver. The transmission media is 1000 mm multi-mode plastic fiber cable. The receiver consists of a linear amplifier.

The word digital in fiber optic means, much the same as it does in electronics. Digital gates, circuits or systems are those, in which there are two defined states. A LOW or a digital ZERO and a HIGH or a digital ONE. In all digital systems, LOW or HIGH, low does not necessarily means a ZERO voltage or ZERO optical signal. A digital ZERO means, a LOWER state than the digital ONE state.

Introduction:Basically, a fiber optic data link contains three main elements: a transmitter, an optical fiber and a receiver. The transmitter takes data previously in electrical form and transforms it into optical (light) energy containing the same information. The optical fiber is the medium, which carries the energy to the destination (receiver). At the receiver, light is converted back into electrical form with the same pattern as originally fed to the transmitter by the person who sent the message.
The advantages of optical fiber are that it allows light to be routed around corners and transported through obstructions (such as walls in buildings), just as household electrical and telephone wiring do, but with much greater signal-carrying capacity, plus being able to operate at greater distances and on foggy and rainy days.
This trainer is intended to experiment some of the above, described topics. The fiber Optic Voice Link trainer consists a (a) transmitter, (b) transmission media (fiber optic cable) and (c) a receiver.
The transmitter consists of a microphone, pre-amplifier, signal conditioner, Optical source (IR 800nm). The transmission media is 1000 mm multi-mode plastic fiber cable. The receiver consists of an optical detector (Photo diode / phototransistor), pre-amplifier, power amplifier and a loud speaker.
The fiber Optic Voice Link trainer consists of a microphone with necessary pre-amplifier, at the transmitter end and an optical detector at the receiver. The optical fiber is used as transmission media. The received signal is further amplified and the audio output is connected to a speaker. There by enabling you to transmit an audio signal and receive at the receiver. This unit has an additional facility to connect a sine wave source from any external function generator as a transmitter. This facility allows you to study the frequency response of the transmission characteristics in the audio range.
This unit is assembled in an ergonomically designed cabinet, with necessary power supplies and associated emitters, detectors, amplifiers, multi mode transmission cables. You need optional signal sources, Oscilloscope, a high impedance mulitmeter as additional equipment to successfully conducting the above objectives.

Mulitiplexer by the very name, suggests more than one signal is transmitted through the same fiber optic cable. This trainer helps to view how signals from different signal sources are multiplexed and transmitted. This trainer has 16 channel Mulitiplexer. 16 independent external signals from external source can be applied as input to this data Mulitiplexer. The necessary timing generator and sync signal generator are included on board. This is used as synchronizing signal for the receiver for decoding purpose.
In order to demonstrate this principle, 3 different signals are generated onboard, namely a pseudo-random bit sequence (PRBS) generator, a pulse and SINE generator of 1 kHz. Using these three signals, the user can start study of Mulitiplexer and De-Mulitiplexer.
An external dual beam oscilloscope is required for observing the input and output signals. For ease of study, both transmitter and receiver are assembled on the same board.

Introduction:PULSE-CODE MODULATION (PCM) refers to a system in which the standard values of a QUANTIZED WAVE are indicated by a series of coded pulses. There are numerous ways to quantize an incoming wave. When these pulses are decoded, they indicate the standard values of the original quantified wave. The study of PCM trainer is all about these methods.
These codes are binary. The entire range of amplitude (frequency or phase) values of the analog wave can be arbitrarily divided into a series of standard values. Each pulse of a pulse train takes the standard value nearest its actual value when modulated. Then the modulating wave can be faithfully reproduced. Each pulse is given whatever standard value is nearest its actual instantaneous value, and the same amplitude range has been divided into 256 standard levels using 8 element binary code.
The system does, of course, have some distortion introduced by quantizing the signal. Both the standard values selected and the sampling interval tend to make the reconstructed wave depart from the original. This distortion, called QUANTIZING NOISE, is initially introduced at the quantizing and coding modulator and remains fixed throughout the transmission and retransmission processes. Making the standard quantizing levels closer together can reduce its magnitude.
About the system:The purpose of this trainer Model FOT-7 is to introduce you to the Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) and demodulation technique. A multimode Fiber Optic cable is used for data transmission and reception. In this trainer, you will understand and investigate the following processes. All the major blocks of this trainer are designed from fundamental building blocks instead of using a dedicated CODEC. As a result, all the blocks of CODEC are dissected and are available as separate building blocks for study. This facilitates the student to understand the quantization process and view the quantified and encoded data using 8 bit LED displays at the transmission side. Observe the serial transmission and reception of this quantified decoded data at a test point, observe the decoded 8 bit received data on LED display etc. This data is further reconstructed and the original signal is available at an output terminal for analysis. As a result of this design, the student can see various stages of the PCM transmission and reception processes for himself.
Features of PCM blocks are
In order to achieve the above, the trainer has necessary built in input signal sources.(a) Continuously variable analog input in the range of 0 to 5 VDC,(b) Function generator with Sine, and Square wave inputs in the range of 200Hz to 20KHz(c) Microphone input after proper signal conditioning, for voice transmission and(d) Provision to connect an external signal source.
The output of the transmitted and received signals, decoded signal and finally the reconstructed outputs can be observed on the oscilloscope.
In order to observe the sequence of events taking place, there are two types of clocks provided one operating at 200KHz, the other at 1Hz. During slow clocking it is possible to observe the signal flow at various test points as detailed below.
(a) Quantization process(b) Serial transmission(c) Decoded output and(d) Reconstructed output.(e) A power amplifier with speaker to hear the voice reception ( when sampled at 200KHz)
This trainer comes with completely self-contained systems with built-in power supplies, signal sources, input output test points for signal observations, a microphone with proper signal condition, a power amplifier with speaker etc. This requires an optional external Dual beam oscilloscope to observe the PCM signal transmission at different stages of modulation and demodulation processes.
