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.

Liquid crystal modulators are a type of optical modulator which utilize liquid crystals to control the intensity, phase, or polarization of light. Nematic liquid crystals are birefringent materials whose effective birefringence can be changed by varying an applied voltage. The attenuator circuit will allow a known source of power to be reduced by a predetermined factor, which is usually expressed as decibels.

Optical attenuators are commonly used in fiber-optic communications, either to test power level margins by temporarily adding a calibrated amount of signal loss, or installed permanently to properly match transmitter and receiver levels. The power reduction is done by such means as absorption, reflection, diffusion, scattering, deflection, diffraction, and dispersion, etc.

Many VFDs use digital inputs to control operation, rather than PLC-driven network communications. A typical variable frequency drive (VFD) can have anywhere from a few hundred to well over a thousand parameters. Which parameters are important and which ones not so much? Arguably, one of the most important, and sometimes. Maintains a stable V/f ratio, allowing for proportionate changes in voltage and frequency.
