Relative Spectral Responsivity

The datasheet provides a Relative Responsivity vs. Wavelength characteristic curve at Ta = 25°C. The plotted response increases through the visible and near-infrared region, reaches its highest relative responsivity in the near-infrared portion of the chart, and then decreases toward the long-wavelength end of the plotted range.

The curve should be used as a typical characteristic reference rather than interpreted as a guaranteed minimum or maximum spectral response specification.

Storage and Handling

The datasheet specifies moisture-controlled storage and handling requirements before and after opening the package. These requirements should be followed before PCB mounting and soldering.

  • Do not open the moisture-proof bag before the devices are ready for use.
  • Before opening, store at 30°C or below and 60% RH or below.
  • The maximum storage period before opening the package is 1 year.
  • After opening, keep the devices at 30°C / 35% RH or below.
  • Use the devices within 7 days after opening.
  • If baking is required before mounting, use 60 ± 5°C for 12 hours.

Soldering Precautions

Proper handling and soldering conditions are important for maintaining device reliability. The datasheet specifies the following precautions for PCB assembly.

  • Use an appropriate current-limiting circuit where required by the application.
  • Avoid instantaneous high voltage during circuit turn-on and turn-off.
  • Reflow soldering should not be performed more than two times.
  • Do not apply mechanical stress to the device during soldering.
  • Do not warp the circuit board before it has returned to normal ambient conditions after soldering.
