OSI Optoelectronics Unveils Industry-First 400-1700nm Two-Dimensional Position Sensitive Detector and Analog Module

04 Feb 2026

HAWTHORNE, CA - OSI Optoelectronics today announced the launch of its latest innovation in photonic technology: the APX-VNG0031PSD Two-Dimensional Position Sensitive Detector (PSD) series, featuring an industry-first extended spectral range of 400-1700 nm, along with the complementary E-VNG0031PSD Analog Module series.

APX-VNG0031PSD Series
These high-sensitivity, high-accuracy, 2 mm-diameter 2D Tetra-Lateral Extended Visible InGaAs PSDs provide precise positional information at any location within the detector region, regardless of beam shape, size, or power distribution. Key features include:

  • 2kΩ Interelectrode Resistance for exceptional positional resolution and signal-to-noise ratio
  • 20 µm Position Detection Error
  • Extended spectral range from 400 to 1700 nm

Available in hermetically sealed TO-5 with anti-reflective windows, these PSDs suit applications such as triangulation, beam stabilization, free space communication, range finding, target tracking, missile interception, IR countermeasures, vibration and distortion measurement, and direct position detection.

E-VNG0031PSD Series
The E-VNG0031PSD analog module series integrates APX-VNG0031PSD detectors with transimpedance amplifiers, providing exceptional spectral sensitivity from 400 to 1700 nm. Key features:

  • 5 MHz cutoff frequency for high-speed performance
  • SMA connectors for easy input/output
  • UNC threading for cage and optical mount compatibility

“We are thrilled to introduce the APX-VNG0031PSD and E-VNG0031PSD companion module series to the market,” said Paul Morben, President of OSI Optoelectronics. “These devices not only enhance our existing product lineup but also reinforce our commitment to delivering innovative solutions that meet the evolving needs of our customers.”
