SG01M6H-5 Broadband SiC UV Photodiode
The SG01M6H-5 is a broadband SiC UV photodiode that provides the unique property of extreme radiation hardness, near-perfect visible blindness, low dark current, high speed and low noise. These features make SiC the best available material for visible blind semiconductor UV detectors.
The SiC detectors can be permanently operated at up to 170°C (338°F). The temperature coefficient of signal (responsivity) is also low, < 0,1%/K. Because of the low noise (dark current in the fA range), very low UV radiation intensities can be measured reliably. Please note that this device needs an appropriate signal transducer (see
typical circuit on page 3 of the data sheet).
- UV broadband (UVA+UVB+UVC)
- 6H SiC chip for enhanced UV sensitivity, e.g. UVA LED control
- 0.20mm2 detector area
- Short TO5 hermetically sealed metal housing, 1 isolated pin and 1 case pin
- 10mW/cm2 irradiation at 290nm (peak responsivity) results a current of approx. 3200nA
