Fort Worth, Texas – January 21, 2021 – TTI, Inc., a leading specialty distributor of electronic components, is now stocking the K857PE family of photodiodes from Vishay. These robust surface-mount devices are designed for small signal detection in automotive rain and light sensors, industrial automation systems, laser beam alignment and virtual reality applications.

Vishay Intertechnology introduces the industry’s first 4-Quadrant Silicon PIN Photodiode in a standard surface-mount package, qualified for automotive applications. Combining high-photo sensitivity with low 0.1 percent electrical segment-to-segment crosstalk and virtually no tolerance between its segments, the Vishay K857PE enables a variety of sensor and control applications for the automotive, consumer and industrial markets. They are designed with opaque package sides to eliminate stray light irradiating the photodiodes, resulting in excellent signal to noise ratio, and their linear photo response enables small signal detection in critical sensing applications. The well-defined gap between the K857PE’s four radiant sensitive areas allows for reliable measurement during laser positioning. Output current from each of the device’s PIN diodes can be processed individually, resulting in low electrical crosstalk.
