PART/ VTB5051BH

VTB5051BH - Si PD, TO-5, 14.8mm2, IR Filter

The VTB5051BH is a silicon photodiode in a hermetic TO-5 flat window package. With a built-in IR rejection filter to limit the response into the visible portion of the spectrum, this photodiode exhibits a very high shunt resistance and a low dark current.

The VTB5051BH Silicon Photodiode provides a 14.8 mm2 active area with a built-in IR rejection filter to limit the response into the visible portion of the spectrum.

This photodiode is primarily intended to be used in photovoltaic mode but may be used with a small reverse bias. It is designed to exhibit very high shunt resistance, a characteristic which leads to low offsets when used in high gain trans-impedance op-amp circuits.
