SLSD-71N7 Solderable Planar Photodiode Features • Visible to IR spectral sensitivity range • Oxide passivation • Linear short circuit current vs irradiance • Low capacitance, high speed • Protective coating Description The Silonex series of silicon solderable planar photodiodes feature low cost, high reliability, and linear short circuit current over a wide range of illumination. They are particularly suited to power conversion applications due to their low internal impedance, relatively high shunt impedance, and stability. The photodiodes have a protective coating that protects them from humidity effects. These devices also provide a reliable and inexpensive detector for instrumentation and light beam sensing applications.
