InGaAs PIN Photodiode in TO-46 Package for 1300 nm Emitter

Model No. PDT-A13A30

FEATURES: • Industry standard TO-46 package with cap lens. • Optimized for fiber optic application. • High coupling efficiency to multi-mode fibers directly. • Low dark current and low capacitance.

ELECTRO-OPTICAL CHARACTERISTICS:

PARAMETERS	SYMBOL	MIN	TYP	MAX	UNIT	TEST CONDITIONS
Responsivity (1)	R	0.8	0.9	-	A/W	VR=5V, l = 1300 nm
Forward Current	IF	100	-	-	mA	VF=1V
Dark Current	ID	-	1	2	nA	VR=5V
Breakdown Voltage	VBD	-	35	-	V	IR=10mA
Capacitance (2)	C	-	1.5	1.7	pF	VR=5V, f=1 MHz

Notes:
1. The responsivity is measured with a receptacle package, using an 1300 nm LED as 
the optical light source to the fiber.
2. Sensitive area is typical 120mm in diameter.
