Vishay Releases High-Speed SMD PIN Photodiodes in Clear Epoxy and Daylight Blocking Filtered Versions, and

MALVERN, PA, Oct 29 (MARKET WIRE) --
New optoelectronics products released this month by Vishay
Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) include the VBPW34x and VBP104x series
of high-speed SMD PIN photodiodes and the TSOP75xxxW series of
ultra-miniature SMD infrared (IR) receivers.

Vishay's VBPW34x and VBP104x high-speed SMD PIN photodiodes feature
gullwing and reverse gullwing packages in clear epoxy and daylight
blocking filtered versions. The eight new devices are optimized for smoke
detection, detectors in light barriers, and data transmission in a wide
range of consumer and industrial applications.

The VBPW34FAS, VBPW34FASR, VBP104FAS, and VBP104FASR photodiodes feature a
daylight blocking filter matched with IR emitters operating at a
wavelength of 870 nm or 950 nm. The devices are optimized to detect IR
signals in light barrier applications covering the range of 780 nm to
1050 nm, and offer a peak wavelength of 950 nm.

For high-speed photo detection, the VBPW34S, VBPW34SR, VBP104S, and
VBP104SR clear epoxy devices are ideal for signal detection in the
spectral range of 430 nm to 1100 nm, and offer a peak wavelength of 940
nm.

The VBPW34x series photodiodes feature a large optical sensitive area of
7.5 mm2 that provides a high output signal of 55 uA, while the VBP104x
series devices offer a smaller optical sensitive area of 4.4 mm2 that
provides an output signal of 35 uA and 30 % lower capacitance.

Vishay's TSOP75xxxW ultra-miniature SMD IR receivers for remote
control systems are the industry's first such devices to feature two
photodiodes, along with patented internal metal EMI shielding, inside an
ultra-thin package with a 2.35-mm profile. The lens-less design of the
devices results in the industry's best sensitivity-to-size ratio, with
irradiance from 0.3 mW/sqm to 0.7 mW/sqm over a wide angle of +/- 75
degrees.

The devices released today are offered in three automatic gain control
(AGC) versions. The TSOP752xxW is compatible with all common IR remote
control data formats. The TSOP753xxW and TSOP754xxW suppress almost all
spurious pulses from energy-saving fluorescent lamps, including dimmed LCD
backlighting, and are compatible with short-burst or long-burst codes,
respectively.

The receivers are optimized for remote control and data transmission
applications in small handheld electronics, such as notebook computers,
digicams, and portable music and video players, as well as set-top boxes,
thin LCD TVs, game controllers, navigation systems, and USB-TV.
