* Measurement conditions: Setup of photo current 10 nA at M = 1 and irradiated by a 880 nm, 80 nm bandwidth LED. Increase the photo
current up to 1 µA, (M = 100) by internal multiplication due to an increasing bias voltage.

APPLICATION NOTES
Current should be limited by a protecting resistor or current limiting IC inside the power supply.
Use of low noise read-out IC.
For high gain applications (M>50) bias voltage should be temperature compensated.
For low light level applications, blocking of ambient light should be used.
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS:
Soldering temperature - 260°C for 10 seconds max. The device must be protected against solder flux vapor.
Minimum pin length - 2 mm
ESD protection - Standard precautionary measures are sufficient.
Storage - Store devices in conductive foam.
Avoid skin contact with window.
Clean window with Ethyl alcohol if necessary.
Do not scratch or abrade window.
