The VTL5C3 has a steep slope, high isolation, good dynamic range, low drive current, a very low temperature coefficient of resistance, and a small light history memory. It can be used in a wide range of products, and is ideal for use in audio limiting, compression, remote gain control and many other applications.

We offer two types, an economy vactrol and high quality Xvive vactrol. Vactrols will always have a pretty low tolerance on their specifications, but the Xvive vactrols are a little more consistent. They are also sealed better so that outside light won't affect the LDR as easily.

Specifications:

• On resistance:
• 30k @ 1mA
• 5 ohm @ 10mA
• 1.5 ohm @ 40mA
• Off resistance: 10M ohm
• Slope: 20 (typ)
• Dynamic Range: 75db (typ)
• Turn on: 2.5ms
• Turn off: 35ms
• Package/Case: 4 pin
