SFH 2240 A01
Overview
The SFH 2240 A01 is an AEC-Q102 qualified silicon photodiode designed with a spectral sensitivity specifically adapted to match the human eye (V-lambda). It features a wide spectral range from 400nm to 690nm and provides high linearity with a fast 90ns response time. This sensor is ideal for ambient light sensing and display brightness control in demanding environments.
Why Choose This Part
This photodiode offers a high responsivity of 0.37 A/W at 550nm and a low dark current of 1nA, ensuring high signal-to-noise ratios even in low-light conditions. Its surface-mount package supports high-temperature operation up to 125 degrees Celsius and features a very low temperature coefficient of spectral sensitivity.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To evaluate this photodiode, integrate it with a transimpedance amplifier (TIA) circuit to convert the nano-ampere level photocurrent into a measurable voltage. Ensure the use of low-leakage PCB design techniques and consider a reverse bias up to 16V to minimize junction capacitance for high-speed switching applications.
