A photodiode is a transducer that takes light energy and converts it into electrical energy. If placed in a dark room, the photodiode is exposed to no light; therefore it creates no electricity. However, if light falls upon it, it takes the light energy and produces electric current in response.A photodiode conducts electric current directly proportional to the amount of light that falls upon it.ow to Connect a Photodiode to a Circuit. A photodiode operates in a circuit in reverse bias. This means that the anode connects to ground of the circuit and the cathode connects to the positive voltage supply of the circuit.
Photodiodes with a p-i-n structure are also used. Such photo-diodes have characteristics similar to those of p-n photodiodes, but their rise time is substantially smallerâas low as 10 â10 sec. Photodiodes are used, for example, in automated devices, laser technology, computer technology, and measurement technology.hen operating in the first mode, a photodiode is used as a photoconductive cell to control the electric current in a circuit in accordance with the variation in the intensity of the incident radiation.
