BPW34 Datasheet, PDF (1/5 Pages) Vishay Siliconix – Silicon PIN Photodiode
Silicon PIN Photodiode
Description
The BPW34 is a high speed and high sensitive PIN
photodiode in a miniature flat plastic package. Its top
view construction makes it ideal as a low cost replace-
ment of TO–5 devices in many applications.
Due to its waterclear epoxy the device is sensitive to
visible and infrared radiation. The large active area
combined with a flat case gives a high sensitivity at a
wide viewing angle.
Features
D Large radiant sensitive area (A=7.5 mm2)
D Wide angle of half sensitivity ϕ = ± 65°
D High photo sensitivity
D Fast response times
D Small junction capacitance
D Suitable for visible and near infrared radiation
Applications
High speed photo detector
