*1: Value was measured at wavelength 200 nm and intensity of light 10 pW/cm2.

*2: Value was measured at recommended operating conditions under indoor lighting (approx. 500 lx).

*3: Value for sustained electrical discharge at recommended operating conditions.

*4: When building an external CR quenching circuit, set the circuit constants so that the quenching time exceeds this value.

*5: If the sensor is used at this value, it will considerably reduce the life of the sensor. Therefore, use the sensor at the recommended operating conditions.

*6: This is the peak value of pulse current that can instantaneously flow. This is for when the half-value width of the peak value is 10 μs or less.

*7: Value was measured at an action time of 11 ms using the IEC 60068-2-27 shock test method.

*8: min-1 indicates counts/min.
