📦 Package, Dimensions & Assembly Notes
- Package Type: EIA Standard SMD.
- Dimensions: 6.4 (L) x 3.9 (W) x 1.2 (H) mm with ±0.30mm general tolerance.
- Soldering Profile: 🌡️ Reflow soldering is recommended once. Peak temperature should not exceed 240°C for more than 10 seconds to prevent epoxy damage.
- Assembly Stress: Do not apply mechanical pressure to the LED body during heating or while the PCB is cooling to avoid cracking the die or wire bonds.
- Moisture Sensitivity: As an MSL 3 device, baking is required if the moisture barrier bag is exposed for more than 168 hours before reflow.
🚀 Sourcing & Supply Considerations
When integrating the XL-PD70-01C-TR into your BOM, verify the packaging format matches your placement equipment (Tape and Reel is standard). ✅ Check the manufacturing date code to manage MSL 3 exposure risks effectively. For cross-referencing or drop-in replacements, confirm that the spectral sensitivity (λp) and reverse light current (IL) bins match your specific gain requirements to avoid re-tuning the receiver circuit.
❓ FAQ
Q: What is the recommended peak wavelength for the emitter paired with this diode? A: The XL-PD70-01C-TR has a peak sensitivity (λp) at 940nm. It should be paired with a 940nm IR emitter for optimal signal response and range.
Q: Can this component withstand lead-free soldering temperatures? A: Yes, but with caution. While the max rating is 260°C, the datasheet recommends a peak of 240°C for ≤10 seconds. Ensure your reflow profile adheres to this to prevent thermal damage.
Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) and handling requirement? A: This component is rated at MSL 3. It can be exposed to the factory floor for 168 hours after opening the vacuum-sealed bag before baking is required.
Q: How do I verify if this diode is a suitable replacement for a generic 3mm photodiode? A: Compare the spectral range (400–1100nm) and the Reverse Light Current (IL: 17–25μA). If your circuit relies on a specific current output at 5V reverse bias, ensure this specification aligns with your existing design.
Q: What is the typical response time for this sensor? A: The rise and fall times (Tr/Tf) are typically 50μs (RL=1kΩ), making it suitable for medium-speed data transmission and standard remote control frequencies.
