Electro-optical PIN diodes for high-speed communications introduced by Marktech Optoelectronics

Marktech Optoelectronics Inc. in Latham, N.Y., is introducing the MTPD1346D-xx family of indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) and indium phosphide (InP) broadband PIN photodiodes for applications in aerospace, automation, autonomous vehicles, high-speed communications, LIDAR, and wearable electronics. The InGaAs/InP PIN photodiodes are designed to convert broadband light into photocurrents within the visible-light and shortwave-infrared spectra. They offer low noise, high sensitivity, high-speed response, and feature wide spectral ranges of 0.6 to 1.7 microns, low dark current, and high efficiency. These electro-optical devices come in active area sizes from 0.1 to 3.0 millimeters. Each is packaged within a hermetically sealed 3-pin TO-46 metal can with flat lens cap, and with choice of either thru-hole or surface mounting.
