This unit
The Agilent/Keysight 10780C is an optical receiver that converts Doppler-shifted laser signals from interferometer and wavelength tracker systems into electrical signals for precision measurement electronics. The receiver focuses laser light onto a silicon PIN photodiode, where polarizing optics separate reference (f1) and measurement (f2 ± M) signal components. These are mixed to generate an AC current at the difference frequency, then converted to a differential square wave output.

Agilent / Keysight 10780C — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Agilent / Keysight 10780C. Calibration covers detector responsivity across all specified wavelengths (typically 800-1700 nm range), absolute power accuracy, and EEPROM calibration coefficient update. Compatible with Agilent/HP 8163A/B, 8164A/B, and 8166A/B mainframes.. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Agilent / Keysight 10780C faults: FC/PC connector damage, EEPROM failure (mainframe shows unrecognized sensor), reduced responsivity. Common faults include FC/PC input connector damage, EEPROM failure causing the module to appear unrecognized by the mainframe, and reduced detector responsivity from contamination.
