Silicon Planar photodiode

May, 2001

ALL DIMENSIONS ARE IN INCHES (MILLIMETERS)

features

• 100° acceptance angle

• 860nm peak response

• TO-5 hermetic package

• usable for visible through near-IR

• RoHS compliant

description

The CLD156 and CLD156R are

0.122" x 0.222" active area silicon

photodiodes featuring high linearity

and low dark current. The TO-5

header provides thermal

environment for reliable operation

over a wide temperature range. Wide

acceptance angle permits use in IR

air communications, ambient light

detection, safety and monitoring,

security systems, etc. For additional

information, call Clairex.
