Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MTD3010PM is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Wavelength and Spectral Range: The substitute must operate at 900nm within the 400nm to 1100nm spectral range to maintain optical detection compatibility.
• Reverse Voltage Rating: Maximum DC reverse voltage of 30V establishes the electrical operating envelope.
• Dark Current: Typical dark current of 10nA defines the baseline noise characteristics.
• Operating Temperature Range: -30°C to 100°C establishes the thermal operating window.
• Mounting Type: Through-hole configuration is required for mechanical compatibility with existing PCB layouts.
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates no moisture-related handling restrictions.

The MTD3910PM qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. Both components share identical wavelength specifications, reverse voltage ratings, dark current characteristics, operating temperature ranges, and moisture sensitivity classifications. Both are through-hole mounted devices from the same manufacturer.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MTD3910PM be used as a direct replacement for the MTD3010PM in existing designs?

A: Yes. The MTD3910PM meets all critical electrical, optical, and mechanical parameters of the MTD3010PM. Both components share identical wavelength specifications, reverse voltage ratings, dark current characteristics, operating temperature ranges, and through-hole mounting configurations. The MTD3910PM is the recommended substitute for obsolete MTD3010PM applications.

Q: What are the key differences between the MTD3010PM and MTD3910PM?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The MTD3010PM is obsolete, while the MTD3910PM is in active production. The MTD3910PM carries ROHS3 compliance certification. Responsivity measurements are taken at different wavelengths (450nm for MTD3010PM versus 900nm for MTD3910PM), reflecting different measurement conditions rather than functional incompatibility.

Q: Are there any package or mounting differences between these components?

A: Both components are through-hole mounted devices. The MTD3010PM uses a TO-18 package, while the MTD3910PM uses a TO-18-2 metal can package. Both configurations are compatible with standard through-hole PCB assembly processes and footprints designed for TO-18 family components.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these components?

A: Both the MTD3010PM and MTD3910PM carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating no moisture-related handling restrictions or special storage requirements during component storage and assembly.

Q: Is the MTD3910PM suitable for applications requiring -30°C to 100°C operating temperature range?

A: Yes. The MTD3910PM maintains the identical operating temperature range of -30°C to 100°C as the MTD3010PM, ensuring thermal compatibility for applications requiring extended temperature operation.
