P RODUCT P REVIEW
DESCRIPTION
The four devices offered feature
excellent dark current ratings of 1-3
nA, and a breakdown voltage of 20
Volts with the bandwidth options for
156 Mb/sec (active area of 300um2),
622 Mb/sec (active area of 200 um2),
2.5 Gb/sec (active area of 75 um2),
10 Gb/sec (active area of 40 um2),
The MXP4000 series of
photodiodes are originally offered in
die form for manufacturers of optical
transponders, supervisory VCSEL
monitoring circuits, and combination
PIN Photodiode-transimpedance
amplifier hybrids.
