Mounted Si Photodiode
Descriptions
SM1PD1B
The Thorlabs SM1PD1B photodiode is ideal for measuring both pulsed and CW fiber light sources, by converting the optical power to an electrical current. The detector is mounted in a convenient SM1 (Ø1.035”-40) externally threaded tube for easy mounting and integration in to existing set up. The detector also has internal RMS (Ø0.8”-36) threading for further mounting solutions. The photodiode is a Type B (Anode Grounded) arrangement and the pin codes for the specific package can be found in the drawing below. The photodiode anode produces a current, which is a function of the incident light power (P) and the wavelength (λ).
