Infrared detectors utilizing photoconductive effects
Features
l
Room temperature operation
Makes PbS cells useful in a wide range of applications
including radiation thermometers and flame monitors
l
High sensitivity
l
Large active area
l
Low price

If voltage of higher than 60 V is applied,
the noise increases exponentially, degrading the S/N. The device should be
operated at 60 V or less.
