OSI Optoelectronics Infrared Photodiode, 65 ° Angle of Half Sensitivity, Through Hole TO-5 Package PIN-SPOT-4D

OSI Optoelectronics PIN-SPOT-4D infrared photodiode is a precision optoelectronic sensor designed for detecting IR light with excellent stability, accuracy, and fast pulse response. The device features a 65 ° angle of half sensitivity and is mounted in a through hole TO-5 package, providing a compact and reliable form factor.

This photodiode has a spectral response range from 350nm to 1100nm with peak sensitivity at 970nm, ideal for infrared detection applications. It is manufactured with RoHS compliance ensuring environmental safety. The device operates efficiently between -25°C and 85°C, providing robust performance in industrial environments.

The PIN-SPOT-4D is characterized by its ultra-low dark current of 0.2nA and a breakdown voltage rating of 30V, enabling stable operation under demanding voltage and low signal interference conditions. Its typical rise and fall times of 3ns and 0.6ns respectively make it highly responsive for high-speed optical signal detection.

Unique to the OSI SPOT series, these photodiodes feature segmented active areas with a precise spacing of 0.127mm, which allows for high positional accuracy and spatial resolution better than 0.1μm. This makes them especially suitable for applications requiring fine position sensing including machine tool alignment, beam centring, surface profiling, and optical targeting guidance systems.

The device is packaged with 5 pins on a through-hole mount supplied on tape and reel, facilitating automated assembly and integration into electronic circuits. The compact dimensions of 8.255mm length, 5mm width, and 3.61mm height along with the TO-5 metal can package provide mechanical robustness.

The photodiode is ideal for use in industrial optics, laboratory instrumentation, precision measurement systems, and automotive sensing applications. It offers excellent stability of response over time and varying temperatures, ensuring reliable performance in critical control systems.

The OSI SPOT series photodiodes provide opportunities to integrate specialized notch or band-pass filters for customized spectral responses. Careful design and RoHS compliance affirm its suitability for state-of-the-art electronic component assemblies.
