Avalanche Photodiode APD Arrays & Quadrants

Product information "Avalanche Photodiode APD Arrays & Quadrants"

C30927 Series: Number of Elements 4; Photo Sensitive Diameter 1.5 mm; Responsivity 15-62 A/W; Capacitance 1 pF; NEP 9-16 fW/√Hz; Spectral Noise Current per Element 0.5 pA/√Hz

Excelitas’ C30927 family of avalanche photodiode (APD) arrays and quadrants utilize the double-diffused “reach-through“ structure. This structure provides ultra-high sensitivity at 400 nm to 1000 nm.

The C30927 quadrant structure has a common avalanche junction, with separation of the quadrants achieved by segmentation of the light entry p+ surface opposite the junction. With this design, there is no dead space between the elements and therefore no loss of response at boresight.

The C30927EH-01, -02 and -03 APD arrays and quadrants are optimized for use at wavelengths of 1060, 900, and 800 nm respectively. Each device type will provide high responsivity and excellent performance when operated within about 50 nm of the specified wavelength.

The C30985E is a 25-element silicon avalanche photodiode (Si APD) consisting of a double diffused “reach-through” structure.

The standard versions of the Excelitas C30737 silicon APD array series are available with 16 or 64 elements and provide high responsivity between 500 nm and 1000nm. The standard versions are available either in a compact surface-mount “top-looking” leadless package (C30737MA) or in a BGA type “top-looking” package (C30737GA).

Both packages are ideally suited for high volume, cost-effective applications where a high gain APD is required. The leadless SMD and BGA packaged parts are RoHS-compliant and suitable for reflow soldering.

The C30737MH series of LLC SMD packaged EPI APDs has the smallest footprint SMD packages.

The C30737GA-02-64-90 silicon avalanche photodiode array (Si APD array) provides high responsivity between 500 nm and 1000 nm and is available in a BGA-type “top-looking” package. The C30737GA is ideally suited for high volume, cost-effective applications where a high gain APD is required. Its leadless BGA package is RoHS-compliant and suitable for reflow soldering.

970 nm Band Optimized; Active Area 1.8 to 3.9 mm2; AA Dimensions 1.75 x 1.22, 4.39 x 0.89, 6.45 x 0.28 mm, Pitch 0.31, 0.99, 1.59 mm; Responsivity 0.06 to 0.65 A/W; Capacitance 12 to 340 pF; Package Ceramic, PCB, 40 Pin DIP OSI Optoelectronics’ multi-element and multi-channel silicon array photodetectors consist of a number of single-element photodiodes laid adjacent to each other forming a one-dimensional sensing area on a common cathode substrate. These array detectors can perform simultaneous measurements of a moving beam or beams of many wavelengths. They feature low electrical crosstalk and super-high uniformity between adjacent elements allowing very high precision measurements. Arrays offer a low-cost alternative when a large number of detectors is required. The detectors are optimized for either UV (A5V-35UV variant), visible or near IR range. Then can be either operated in photoconductive mode (reverse biased, A5C variants) to decrease the response time, or in photovoltaic mode (unbiased, A2V and A5V variants) for low-drift applications. The A2V-16 version can be coupled to any scintillator crystal for measuring high-energy photons in the X-ray and gamma-ray region of the electromagnetic spectrum. In addition, they have been mechanically designed, so that several of them can be mounted end to end to each other in applications where more than 16 elements are needed. Key Features: Common Substrate Array Ultra-low Crosstalk UV Enhanced (A5V-35UV) Low Dark Current Low Capacitance Solderable Applications: Level Meters; Optical Spectroscopy; Position Sensors; Computed Tomography Scanners; Medical Equipment; High-speed Photometry
