These components utilize the effect of the lateral division of the generated photocurrent. The term "position sensitive detector" (PSD) refers to a component that is based on silicon PIN diode technology and is used to measure the position of the integral focus of an incoming light signal. A light spot on the PSD, for instance, is converted into a continuous electrical signal corresponding to the focal position of this spot. The position of a direction is derived from the relationship between two output currents.
