The S16453-10K is a silicon avalanche photodiode designed for high-sensitivity low-level light measurement at short wavelengths, with a quantum efficiency of 90% at 420 nm. It is packaged in a TO-5 case with a photosensitive area of 0.78 mm² and a diameter of 1.0 mm. The device operates with a reverse voltage up to 500 V and a maximum forward current of 10 mA, and maintains a dark current of 0.2 nA at 400 V and a terminal capacitance of 55 pF at 100 kHz. The gain exceeds 50 at 420 nm with a reverse voltage of 400 V, and it operates between -20 °C and +60 °C with a storage temperature range of -55 °C to +100 °C. The window material is borosilicate glass.
Short wavelength type APD
The S16453 series is a Si APD that has significantly higher sensitivity at short wavelength than previous product (S8664 series). (There are products that are slower than previous products. See the S8664 series datasheet.)
