VTS Process Photodiodes
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This series of planar, P on N, large area silicon photodiodes is characterized for use in the photovoltaic (unbiased) mode. Their 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.
