Longer example sentences

The total current through the photodiode is the sum of the dark current (current that is generated in the absence of light) and the photocurrent, so the dark current must be minimized to maximize the sensitivity of the device. (39 words)

When the clear tape reaches one of these, enough light will pass through the tape to the photodiode to trigger the stop function; in more sophisticated machines it will start rewinding the cassette when the trailing end is detected. (39 words)

Dark current must be accounted for by calibration if a photodiode is used to make an accurate optical power measurement, and it is also a source of noise when a photodiode is used in an optical communication system. (38 words)

Example sentences (15)

Dark current must be accounted for by calibration if a photodiode is used to make an accurate optical power measurement, and it is also a source of noise when a photodiode is used in an optical communication system.

Unwanted photodiode effects Any p–n junction, if illuminated, is potentially a photodiode.

If we think about the requirements for autonomous driving at night, there will be a need to expand the size of the photodiode.

An exception is when a diode reverse-conducts, either by accident (breakdown of a normal diode) or by design (breakdown of a Zener diode, photo-current of a photodiode).

A PIN photodiode can also detect X-ray and gamma ray photons.

Diode Light-emitting diode (LED) Photodiode Schottky diode Transient-voltage-suppression diode (TVS) Tunnel diode Varicap Zener diode Typical diode packages in same alignment as diode symbol.

In further processing, a photodiode is used to transform the optical field into an electric current, so the information is changed back into its original state.

Otherwise a spectrometer as detector for the power is needed instead of a photodiode which has not a selective wavelength dependence.

Photodetector and photovoltaic cell The PIN photodiode was invented by Jun-ichi Nishizawa and his colleagues in 1950.

The common, traditional solar cell used to generate electric solar power is a large area photodiode.

The photocurrent may be enhanced by internal gain caused by interaction among ions and photons under the influence of applied fields, such as occurs in an avalanche photodiode (APD).

The ST-701 was the first SLR to use a silicon cell photodiode, which was more sensitive than CdS and was immune to the memory effect that the CdS cell suffered from in bright sunlight.

The total current through the photodiode is the sum of the dark current (current that is generated in the absence of light) and the photocurrent, so the dark current must be minimized to maximize the sensitivity of the device.

This combination of R and C integrates the photoresponse over time and thus lengthens the impulse response of the photodiode.

When the clear tape reaches one of these, enough light will pass through the tape to the photodiode to trigger the stop function; in more sophisticated machines it will start rewinding the cassette when the trailing end is detected.
