Description

BPX43 is a very high sensitive silicon NPN epitaxial

planar phototransistor in a standard TO–18 hermeti

cally sealed metal case with a glass lens.

A superior linearity of photocurrent vs. irradiation

makes it ideal for linear applications. A base terminal

is available to enable biasing and sensitivity control.

Features

• Hermetically sealed TO–18 case

• Lens window

• Angle of half sensitivity ϕ = ± 15°

• Exact central chip alignment

• Base terminal available

• Very high photo sensitivity

• High linearity

• Suitable for visible and near infrared radiation

• Selected into sensitivity groups

Applications

  Detector for analogue and digital applications in industrial electronics, measuring and control, e.g. long range light barriers with additional optics, optical switches, alarm systems.
