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.
Photodiode. a semiconductor diode characterized by unidirectional photoconductivity when exposed to optical radiation. A photodiode is a semiconductor crystal that usually has p-n junction with two metal terminalsâone from the p-region and the other from the n-regionâand is enclosed in a metal or plastic housing.Photodiodes are made of such materials as Ge, Si, GaAs, or HgCdTe.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.
