BPV10NF
Overview
The BPV10NF is a high-speed PIN photodiode housed in a T-1 3/4 plastic package, specifically designed for infrared radiation detection. It features an integrated daylight blocking filter that is spectrally matched with 850 nm to 950 nm IR emitters, making it highly effective for optical communication in environments with ambient light.
Why Choose This Part
This photodiode offers a fast response time and high sensitivity of 0.55 A/W, coupled with a low typical dark current of 1nA. Its 40-degree viewing angle provides a balanced field of view, while the 60V maximum reverse voltage allows for high-speed operation with low capacitance.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To achieve maximum bandwidth, operate the photodiode in photoconductive mode with a reverse bias up to 60V. Ensure the 940nm emitter is aligned within the 40-degree half-sensitivity angle, and use a high-speed transimpedance amplifier (TIA) for converting the small photocurrent into a usable signal.
