PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The PD070 is an InGaAs photodiode with a
photosensitive region 70μm in diameter. It is
intended for use in high speed, low noise
communication systems, such as 1.25Gb/s or
2.5Gb/s optical receivers and for use in optical
test and measurement equipment.
Planar semiconductor design and dielectric
passivation provide low noise performance.
Reliability is assured by hermetic sealing and
100% purge burn-in (200°C, 15 hours, Vr = 20V).
The device can be assembled on a ceramic sub-
mount or in a TO can. It can be pigtailed with SC,
FC or ST connectors (UPC or APC). It can also be
mounted in an SC, ST of FC receptacle. Custom
packages are an option.
