S3979, S3931, S3932, S1352, S3270
3 to 37 mm resistance length PSD for precision distance measurement
Hamamatsu provides various types of one-dimensional PSD (Position Sensitive Detector) designed for precision distance measurement such as displacement meters. S3979 has a 1 × 3 mm active area sealed in a TO-5 package. S3931 and S3932 have an active area of 1 × 6 mm and 1 × 12 mm respectively, and are mounted on a compact ceramic package with a transparent resin window. Variant types (S3931-01, S3932-01) with a visible-cut resin window are also available. S1352 and S3270 offer an active area longer than 30 mm, allowing position detection at a long distance. S3270 has a visible-cut resin window, and S3270-01 with a transparent resin window is also available.

The detection limit is indicated by the distance on the photosensitive surface. The numerical value of the resolution of a position sensor using a PSD is proportional to both the length of the PSD and the noise of the measuring system (resolution deteriorates) and inversely proportional to the photocurrent (incident energy) of the PSD (resolution improves).

s Correction for position detection error
Position detection characteristics obtained by the above formula can be corrected to reduce position detection errors. For example, the maximum position detection error (±120 µm) of S3931 can be significantly reduced to ±9 µm by using the least square method.
