Optical attenuators are critical devices used in managing the intensity of optical signals in fiber optic communications. Key requirements include minimal effect on the beam profile, low wavelength and polarization dependence, and sufficient power handling capability. The attenuator circuit will allow a known source of power to be reduced by a predetermined factor, which is usually expressed as decibels.

3 draft standards now specify the TX in terms of a minimum value for output power minus penalties. While optical communication systems provide a broad bandwidth, their relatively low power efficiency continues to limit their deployment in new applications. In one embodiment, a low-power optical transceiver may include a microcontroller and an optical receiver and an optical transmitter in communication with and controlled by the microcontroller. An optical source converts el ctrical energy (current) into optical energy (light).

An optical attenuator, or fiber optic attenuator, is a device used to reduce the power level of an optical signal, either in free space or in an optical fiber. The basic types of optical attenuators are fixed, step-wise variable, and continuously variable. The power reduction is done by such means as absorption, reflection, diffusion, scattering, deflection, diffraction, and dispersion, etc.
