Si APD
S9717 series
High reliability, surface-mount ceramic package
1
S9717 series are Si APD (avalanche photodiodes) encapsulated in a surface-mount ceramic package that ensures high reli-
ability in the same wide operating temperature range (-20 to +85 °C) as metal package devices. S9717 series also allows
downsizing of equipment in various photometric application fi elds.
