VEMD5xx0 Family of Large Area PIN Photodiodes
Vishay offers the automotive-grade PIN photodiodes that deliver 7.5 mm² sensitive area in low-profile packages
Vishay's AEC-Q101-qualified, surface-mount devices offer high reverse light current to 48 µA and low dark current of 2 nA. These devices are manufactured using Vishay's foil assisted mold (FAM) technology. The photodiodes' lead frame, bond wire, and connection pads are molded in black epoxy while a free cavity above the radiant sensitive area allows light to enter the package for signal generation. This design enables a smaller overall package size with a lower height profile while maintaining a large radiant sensitive area. In addition, thermal stress on the bond is reduced for increased robustness and reliability.
The photodiodes are optimized for photodetection in applications such as rain, light, tunnel sensors, smoke detectors, wearable electronics, data transmission, and road cash systems. They are used for the detection of visible and near-infrared radiation.
