Jaycar 5mm Infrared Photodiode – LED-Form Receiver, 50ns Response Time

You want a receiver that looks like an LED, sits in the same hole, and doesn't need a separate transistor. This 5mm photodiode puts its sensitive area on the curved face, gives you a 50ns typical turn-on/off time, and runs at 350mV open-circuit voltage. Standard footprint, no adapter needed

• 5mm LED-form package – drops into the same holes as a standard 5mm LED
• Radiant sensitive area on the curved face for straightforward alignment
• 50ns typical turn-on/off time – responsive for most hobby and industrial IR circuits
• 350mV open-circuit voltage
• No extra components needed for basic detection
