High Speed Silicon Photodiodes
OSI Optoelectronics offers a range of high-speed silicon photodiode detectors optimized at 800 nm band. These small and large active area detectors feature a fast rise time for high-bandwidth applications up to 1.25 GHz. They are available in flat window or micro-lens window TO18 models.
100 Mbps to 622 Mbps Photodiodes
This family of large active area and high-speed silicon detector series are designed to reliably support short-haul data communications applications. Each detector exhibits low dark current and low capacitance at 3.3 V bias. Base units come in a 3 pin TO-46 package with micro lens cap or AR coated flat window. Standard fiber optic receptacles (FC, ST, SC, and SMA) allow easy into systems.
1.25 Gbps Photodiodes
This family of high-speed silicon PIN photodiodes feature a large sensing area optimized for short-haul optical data communication applications at 850 nm. These photodetectors exhibit high responsivity, wide bandwidth, low dark current, and low capacitance at 3.3 V. They are used in 850 nm transceivers and GBICs in applications up to 1.25 Gbps and are available in standard fiber receptacles such as FC, ST, SC and SMA.
