SLCD-61N6
Solderable Planar Photodiode
Features
Visible to IR spectral irradiance range
High reliability
Oxide passivation
Linear short circuit current
Low capacitance, high speed
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.
These devices are widely used for light sensing and
power generation because of their stability and high
efficiency.
They are particularly suited to power
conversion applications due to their low internal
impedance, relatively high shunt impedance, and
stability.
These devices also provide a reliable and
inexpensive detector for instrumentation and light
beam sensing applications.
