    Question

    Which of the following is used as a receiver for fiber optical communication?

    A.

    Photo diode

    B.

    LDR

    C.

    IR diode

    D.

    LED

    Correct option is A


    In fiber-optic communication, the signal is transmitted through light (usually infrared light) along the fiber-optic cables. The receiver needs to convert this light signal back into an electrical signal. The most commonly used component for this purpose is the photodiode, specifically a PIN diode or avalanche photodiode (APD).
