TEMD6010FX01
Overview
The TEMD6010FX01 is a high-speed PIN photodiode designed specifically to mimic the human eye's spectral sensitivity, with a peak response at 540nm. This AEC-Q101 qualified sensor features a built-in infrared suppression filter, making it ideal for accurate ambient light detection in environments with significant IR noise. It comes in a compact 1206 surface-mount package and operates across a wide temperature range of -40 to 100 degrees Celsius.
Why Choose This Part
The primary advantage is its spectral response, which peaks at 540nm and covers 430nm to 610nm, closely matching the human eye while blocking unwanted infrared light. With a low typical dark current of 2nA and a wide 120-degree viewing angle, it provides reliable sensitivity in low-light conditions. Its AEC-Q101 qualification ensures the reliability required for automotive and harsh industrial environments.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To integrate this photodiode, use a transimpedance amplifier (TIA) circuit to convert the low-level nanoampere photocurrent into a measurable voltage for an ADC. Ensure the PCB layout minimizes leakage currents around the 0.27mm2 sensitive area, and consider using a guard ring if high precision is required. For testing, a standard visible light source can be used to verify the 540nm peak responsivity.
