CAMARILLO, Calif. – Advanced Photonix Inc. in Camarillo, Calif., is introducing the APX-PSD-XVInG-3.1 sensitive 2-millimeter diameter position-sensing detector (PSD) for position-sensing applications in communication and defense for alignment, nulling, centering, targeting, and guidance systems.
The APX-PSD-XVInG-3.1 offers spectral response from the visible out to the near- and shortwave-infrared (NIR-SWIR) wavelengths. The APX-PSD-XVInG-3.1 is a low-noise position-sensing device with sensitivity from 400 to 1700 nanometers and position-detection accuracy.
APX's 400-1700 nanometers PSD features 2 kiloohms inter-electrode resistance, high shunt resistance, low capacitance, and 20 micron position detection error.
The sensitive PSD is housed in a hermetically sealed TO-5 package or a 5 by 3.6 millimeters surface-mount ceramic package with an anti-reflective window. Advanced Photonix's PSD is specially designed for extended visible indium gallium arsenide position-sensing applications.
