HyOptic MEMS VOA (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System Variable Optical Attenuator) realizes optical path attenuation, usually used in test system or integrated into test instrument, power balance to cooperate with OADM, and integrate into EDFA, adjust output slope, adjust amplifier gain to realize VGA function.
There are 2 types of Mems VOA:
1. Bright type, the initial 0 voltage corresponds to 0 attenuation;
2. Dark type, the initial 0 voltage corresponds to the maximum attenuation;
