Silicon Avalanche Photodetectors (APDs) are designed to provide greater sensitivity and lower noise than standard PIN detectors, making them ideal for applications with low optical power levels. In addition to our standard APDs, versions with variable gain (i.e., M factor) and/or temperature compensation are also available.
