High sensitive photodiodes
General Description
Features
The epc3xx family products are high-sensitive photo diodes for  Low dark current
light-barrier, light-curtain, and the like applications. These photo  High quantum efficiency
diodes are designed to be used in a reverse-bias mode.
 high dynamic range
 Diodes can be used in parallel
This device allows the design of short to long range light barriers  CSP package with very small footprint
from a few millimeters up to tens of meters.
 Near infrared and visible version available
 Customer specific wavelength filter upon request
Using chips from the epc3xx product line, linear or two dimen sional arrays can be formed for any application, be it triangulation,
spot location, angle measurement, rotary encoders, or similar. Applications
Also, spectral sensitive detectors can easily be designed by
applying color filters in front of the photo diodes.
 Light barriers ranging from millimeters to tens of meters
 Light curtains
Also, other mechanical dimensions are available upon request. It  Smoke detectors
is be possible to manufacture photo diodes of up to 15x15 mm or  Liquid detectors
even bigger. Such a 15x15 mm device then would contain 450  Heart beat monitors
individual photo diodes, each of them individually accessible. All  Position detection (rotary, linear, angle, etc.)
diodes feature a very high quantum efficiency of 90% in the near  IR remote control of Hi-Fi, TV sets and other equipment
IR range, a reverse breakdown voltage of up to 30 Volts and a  Leveling instruments
response time down to less than 100ns. All devices are available  differential measurement
upon request with optical bandpass filters.

Application Information
Light Barrier Application
The following circuit uses an epc3xx photo diode with an epc13x PD amplifier chip. This circuit offers a very high AC photo current sensitivity
and a tremendous DC backlight suppression.

Figure 1: Typical schematic circuit using an epc13x PD
amplifier
Recommended Components Values
R1: 27k (bias resistor). Sensitivity can be reduced by the reduction of this resistor.
C1: Usually not needed. May be up to 100 pF (refer to the epc13x data sheet).
C2: 33nF (DC input current filter capacitor)
C3: 100nF or more (power supply filter capacitor)
Spectral Sensitivity
This photo diode contains an anti-reflection coating on the photosensitive surface. Standard versions have no optical filter in order to allow applications from the near UV to the near IR range. However, optical filters deposited on the photosensitive surface are available upon request.
The filter parameters can be adjusted in a wide range according to specific customer requirements.
Electrical Isolation between individual Diodes
The individual diodes are located on a monolithic silicon chip. Thus, the electrical isolation between the individual diodes is not as good as
with diodes on separate substrates.

Tape & Reel Information
The devices are mounted on embossed tape for automatic placement systems. The tape is wound on 178 mm (7 inch) or 330 mm (13 inch)
reels and individually packaged for shipment. General tape-and-reel specification data are available in a separate data sheet and indicate the
tape sizes for various package types. Further tape-and-reel specifications can be found in the Electronic Industries Association (EIA) standard
481-1, 481-2, 481-3.
epc does not guarantee non-empty cavities. Thus, pick-and-place machines should check the presence of a chip during picking.
It is highly recommended to use underfill after assembly of the chips to the PCB.
