Abstract
IEC 61291-2:2023 is available as IEC 61291-2:2023 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.IEC 61292-2:2023 provides a performance specification template applicable to optical amplifiers (OAs) used in single channel applications. Multichannel applications are covered in IEC 61291-4. The objective of this template is to provide a framework for the preparation of performance standards and/or product specifications defining the performance of OA devices used in single channel applications. In addition to the requirements specified in this template, a performance standard or product specification could include other parameters, such as ratings, operating conditions, tests, and pass/fail criteria. For a particular application, product specification writers could add specification parameters and/or groups of specification parameters to this template, without removing the parameters specified in this document. This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition published in 2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- the test methods for gain ripple in Table 2, Table 4 and Table 6 refer now to the IEC 61290‑1 series;
- the SOA definition (3.1.3) refers now to IEC 61931.
- the test methods for gain ripple in Table 2, Table 4 and Table 6 refer now to the IEC 61290‑1 series;
- the SOA definition (3.1.3) refers now to IEC 61931.
