Features
•
High speed, low capacitance
•
Low cost conductive plastic recepticle
Description
The OPF792 is a silicon PIN photodiode
mounted in a conductive plastic
receptacle. Using a “
Conductive”plastic
allows an electrical connection to still be
made to the recepticle for noise sensitive
applications. Its high speed and low cost
make it a good choice for cost sensitive
high data rate applications up to 194
