Silicon PIN Photodiode
Description
BP104 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
replacement of TO–5 devices in many applications.
The epoxy package itself is an IR filter, spectrally
matched to GaAs or GaAs on GaAlAs IR
emitters (
with a flat case gives a high sensitivity at a wide
viewing angle.
