PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This series of planar, P on N, large area silicon photodiodes is
ch aract er ized for use i n th e phot ovolt ai c (unbi as ed ) mo de. Th ei r
excellent speed and broadband sensitivity makes them ideal for
detecting light from a variety of sources such as LEDs, IREDs,
flashtubes, incandescent lamps, lasers, etc. Improved shunt
resistance minimizes amplifier offset and drift in high gain
systems. The solderable contact system on these photodiodes
provides a cost effective design solution for many applications.
