TPS723A

The TPS723A is a kind of silicon pin photodiode for fiber optic system. There are some features as follows: (1)small dark current: ID=0.5 nA typ; (2)high sensitivity: Sf=0.37 A/W typ; (3)high speed application is possible: tr, tf=100 ns typ.

The following is about the maximum ratings of TPS723A (Ta=25): (1)reverse voltage, VR: 30 V; (2)power dissipation, PD: 150 mW; (3)operating temperature, Topr: -30 to 80; (4)storage temperature, Tstg: -40 to 100.

The last one is about the optical-electrical characteristics of TPS723A (Ta=25): (1)dark current, ID: 0.5 nA typ and 8.0 nA max at VR=10 V; (2)fiber coupled sensitivity, Sf: 0.32 A/W min and 0.37 A/W typ when VR=10 V, =660 nm, Pf=1W; (3)peak sensitivity wavelength, P: 840 nm typ at VR=10 V; (4)capacitance, CT: 10 pF at VR=10 V, f=1 MHz; (5)switching time: rise time, tr: 100 ns typ at VR=10 V, RL=1 k; fall time, tf: 100 ns typ at VR=10 V, RL=1 k.
