Silicon NPN Phototransistor
Description
TEFT4300 is a high speed and high sensitive silicon
NPN epitaxial planar phototransistor in a standard T–1
(ø 3 mm) plastic package.
The epoxy package itself is an IR filter, spectrally
matched to GaAs IR emitters with l
The plastic lens provides a wide viewing angle of ±
30°.
