2 Photodiodes in One Chip for Spatially Resolved Light Detection

The PR5001 is a dual-element Si photodiode moulded into a small plastic leadless optical package. Produced as one chip, the photodiodes offer a very good symmetry, low dark current and high sensitivity.
Apart from the standard version PR5001, the PR5001-ARC features an anti-reflective layer, smoothing the spectral sensitivity and providing a high good matching from part to part.

FEATURES
• Low dark current
• Low capacitance
• Good matching between photodiodes

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
• Laser beam alignment
• Opto encoders
• Position detection
• Differential light measurement
