SMT photo detectors

4 September 2013 Opto-Electronics

Vishay has broadened its optoelectronics portfolio with the introduction of new high-speed photo detectors in miniature gullwing, reverse gullwing and side-view packages with wide-view dome lenses.

Offered with or without daylight blocking filters, featuring a ±35° angle of half sensitivity, and AEC-Q101-qualified, the VEMD2xx3(SL) PIN photodiodes have a typical output current of 10 µA and an extremely low dark current of 1 nA while the VEMT2xx3(SL) phototransistors have a typical output current of 2,7 mA.

For applications requiring emitter-detector pairs, these new photo detectors have matching emitters in Vishay’s high-speed ±25° and ±28° VSMB2943xX01 series.

The photo detectors can be used as photo interrupters, detectors for optical switches, counters, encoders, position sensors, and for infrared (IR) remote control and data transmission in automotive applications, IR touch panels, light curtains and barriers, and metering systems.

Offering black dome lenses and spectral bandwidth ranging from 750 nm to 1050 nm, devices with daylight blocking filters are responsive to infrared light, while suppressing ambient light to increase the signal-to-noise ratio. Clear epoxy devices without daylight blocking filters offer a broader wavelength range of 350 nm to 1120 nm and are sensitive to visible and near infrared radiation.
