OSI Optoelectronics’ solderable silicon photodiode chip series offer a low-cost approach to applications requiring large active area photo detectors with or without flying leads for ease of assembly and/or situations where the detector is considered "disposable".
They have low capacitance, moderate dark currents, wide dynamic ranges and high open circuit voltages. These detectors are available with two 76 mm long leads soldered to the front (anode) and back (cathode).
The photoconductive solderable series (SXXCL) is used for low-capacitance and fast-response applications, while the photovoltaic solderable series (SXXVL) is used for low-noise applications.
All devices are also available in chip form without any leads. For ordering subtract suffix 'L' from the model number, e.g. “S-100C”.
For large signal outputs, the detectors can be connected directly to a current meter or across a resistor for voltage measurements. Alternately, the output can be measured directly with an oscilloscope or with an amplifier. For further details please refer to the application note “Photodiode Characteristics and Applications” available under “Downloads”.
