Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PDB-V601-1 is determined by matching the following critical electrical parameters:

• Wavelength: 940nm (exact match required)
• Response Time: 300ns (exact match required)
• Voltage - DC Reverse (Max): 25V (exact match required)
• Current - Dark (Typ): 3nA (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 100°C (exact match required)
• Spectral Range: 350nm to 1100nm (exact match required)
• RoHS Compliance: Required for regulatory compatibility

The substitute part PDB-V601-1-25 shares all critical electrical specifications with the main part. The primary difference is the package form factor: PDB-V601-1 is supplied as a die, while PDB-V601-1-25 is supplied in rectangular package format. Both parts are manufactured by Advanced Photonix and carry the same base product number (PDB-V601), confirming their functional equivalence within the same product family.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both PDB-V601-1 and PDB-V601-1-25 are active production parts manufactured by Advanced Photonix with full RoHS compliance. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging and mounting requirements rather than electrical performance.

PDB-V601-1 (Die Format): Select this part for applications requiring direct die integration, hybrid assembly, or custom packaging solutions where the bare die form factor is advantageous.

PDB-V601-1-25 (Rectangular Package): Select this part for applications requiring a pre-packaged rectangular form factor with user-defined mounting options, simplifying integration into standard component layouts.

Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications, ensuring functional interchangeability within their respective packaging constraints. Inventory availability is strong for both variants, supporting production continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PDB-V601-1-25 be used as a direct replacement for PDB-V601-1?

A: Electrical substitution is complete; all critical parameters including wavelength, response time, voltage rating, and dark current are identical. Physical substitution depends on your application's packaging and mounting requirements. The die format (PDB-V601-1) and rectangular package format (PDB-V601-1-25) require different integration approaches.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?
