VBP104SR
Overview
The VBP104SR is a high-speed silicon PIN photodiode with a large 4.4mm2 active area and a wide 130-degree viewing angle. It is designed for high radiant sensitivity in the visible and near-infrared spectrum, specifically optimized for 940nm wavelengths. The surface-mount Z-bend package enables easy automated assembly while maintaining a low 100ns response time.
Why Choose This Part
The Z-bend surface-mount package offers a low-profile solution without sacrificing the large active area required for high sensitivity. It features a wide spectral range of 430nm to 1100nm and a high reverse breakdown voltage of 60V, providing robust performance in varied lighting conditions.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To integrate this photodiode, bias it in reverse mode to minimize capacitance and achieve the rated 100ns response time. Connect the output to a transimpedance amplifier (TIA) using an op-amp with low input bias current to convert the generated photocurrent into a usable voltage signal for an ADC or comparator.
