High-Speed Silicon PIN Photodiodes
C30741Series
Overview
Features and Benefits
Excelitas’ C30741 series of N-type
silicon p-i-n photodiodes provide fast
response and high quantum efficiency in
the spectral range of 400 to 1100 nm.
The wavelength of maximum sensitivity is
@ 800 nm.
These epitaxial-structure devices are
optimized for high-speed, high volume
and low-cost applications. Standard size
is 1.5 x 1.5 mm and custom sizes can be
accommodated depending on volume
requirements.
Available in plastic packages that are
either T1 ¾ through-hole or gull wing
surface mount types, these detectors
come in clear or ambient light blocking
versions.
As different applications have different
performance
requirements,
Excelitas
offers a wide range of customization
options for the C30741 series of
photodiodes to meet your specific design
challenges.
Detector size and package types are
among many of the application-specific
options available.
