Diodes are one of the most commonly used semiconductor devices in various electronic circuits. A diode is a two terminal device that allows the flow of current in only one direction.
Excelitas Technologies Corp has announced its enhanced product family of low-capacitance InGaAs PIN Photodiodes C30619GH-LC, C30641GH-LC, C30642GH-LC, and C306
What is Photodiode? Photodiodes, as the name suggest, are just another type of diodes having an anode and cathode similar to normal LEDs. But, unlike LEDs they do not emit light.
Vishay Intertechnology has come up with two new AEC-Q101 qualified devices in the compact 0805 case size with a low 0.7 mm profile which is 0.15 mm lower compared to preceding generation devices.
The BPW34 is a high speed photodiode with good photo sensitivity. It responds to visible and near infrared radiation. It has a breakdown voltage of 60V with a rise and fall time of 100ns that is a switching speed of 20nS.
