InGaAs Avalanche Photodiodes (APD)
The APX-NG000XAPD series are InGaAs Avalanche Photodiodes (APD), which come in various active area diameters of 0.2mm, 0.4mm, and 0.5mm. These APDs operate at reverse bias voltages ranging from 40V to less than 80V, with a typical bias voltage of 55V. They can provide avalanche gains of up to 25. These devices are available in TO-46 metal cans and Surface Mount Technology (SMT) packages. Due to their high gain, low noise, and fast response times, these devices are ideal for use in optical communication receivers, laser range finders, and low-light-level detection systems operating in the near-infrared wavelength range (1000nm to 1650nm).
