Metal Package PMT
Photosensor Modules H5773/H5783/H6779/H6780 Series
The H5773/H5783/H6779/H6780 series are photosensor modules housing a metal
package PMT and high-voltage power supply circuit. The metal package PMTs
have a metallic package with the same diameter as a TO-8 package used for semi-
conductor photodetectors, and deliver high gain, wide dynamic range and high-
speed response while maintaining small dimensions identical to those of photo-
diodes. The internal high-voltage power supply circuit is also compact, making the
module easy to use.
Considering the mounting methods, a cable output type and a pin output type are
provided, and a total of 7 types are available according to the wavelength range to
be measured. A P-type is also available with selected gain and dark count ideal for
photon counting under extremely low light conditions.
