PIN Silicon Photodiode
Type OP993
Features
• Wide receiving angle
• Linear response vs. irradiance
• Fast switching time
• TO-18 equivalent package style
Description
The OP993 photodiode consists of a PIN
silicon photodiode mounted in a dark
blue plastic injection molded shell
package. The wide receiving angle
provides excellent on-axis coupling. The
sensors are 100% production tested for
close correlation with Optek emitters.

Notes:
(1) RMA flux is recommended. Duration can be extended to 10 sec. max. when flow soldering.
Max. 20 grams force may be applied to leads when soldering.
(2) Derate linearly 1.67 mW/o C above 25o C.
(3) Light source is an unfiltered GaAlAs emitting diode operating at peak emission wavelength of
890nm and Ee(APT) of 1.7 mW/cm2 average within a .250" dia. aperture.
(4) This dimension is held to within ± 0.005" on the flange edge and may vary up to ± 0.020" in
the area of the leads.
Typical Performance Curves
Optek’s packaging process provides
excellent optical and mechanical axis
alignment. The shell also provides
excellent optical lens surface, control of
chip placement, and consistency of
external package dimensions.
