W W W . Microsemi . COM
Microsemi’s InGaAs/InP PIN Photodiode chips are ideal for wide bandwidth 1310nm and 1550nm optical networking applications. The four devices offered feature excellent dark current ratings of 1-3 nA, and a breakdown voltage of 20 Volts with the bandwidth options for 156 Mb/sec (active area of 300um2), 622 Mb/sec (active area of 200 um2), 2.5 Gb/sec (active area of 75 um2), 10 Gb/sec (active area of 40 um2),
The MXP4000 series of photodiodes are originally offered in die form for manufacturers of optical transponders, supervisory VCSEL monitoring circuits, and combination PIN Photodiode-transimpedance amplifier hybrids.
