LATHAM, N.Y. – 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.

LATHAM, N.Y. – 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.

Small-to-medium-sized quantities of standard broadband PIN photodiodes typically are available via Marktech's longtime distribution partner, Digi-Key Corp. In addition, the photodiodes may be integrated with Marktech shortwave infrared emitters as one package.
