Osram Ltd. SFH213 PIN Photodiode, 5mm, Silicon
Osram SFH213 5mm silicon PIN photodiode with 5ns switching. 400-1100nm range, ideal for high-speed photo interrupters & industrial use.
The Osram Ltd. SFH213 is a high-performance silicon PIN photodiode, engineered for applications demanding very fast response times. Housed in a standard 5mm LED plastic package, this component offers a typical short switching time of just 5 nanoseconds, making it an excellent choice for high-speed optical sensing and photo interrupter circuits.
It features a broad spectral sensitivity range from 400 to 1100 nanometres, with a peak sensitivity at 850nm, ideal for near-infrared (IR) applications. The device provides a photocurrent of 135µA and has a compact radiant sensitive area of 1 x 1mm². With a narrow angle of half sensitivity of ±10°, it offers good directionality for precise sensing.
Designed for reliability across challenging environments, the SFH213 operates within a wide temperature range from -40°C to +100°C. Its low dark current of 1000pA ensures stable performance with minimal noise, which is critical for accurate light detection in both digital and analogue circuits.
This two-pin component in a T-1 3/4 case style is a fundamental building block for industrial electronics, providing the essential link between light input and electrical signal output where speed and sensitivity are paramount.
