Silicon NPN Phototransistor
Description
BPW16N is a silicon NPN epitaxial planar phototransistor in a miniature plastic case with flat window.
With a lead center to center spacing of 2.54mm and a
package width of 2.4mm the devices are easily stackable on PC boards and assembled to arrays of
unlimited size.
Due to its waterclear epoxy the device is sensitive to
visible and near infrared radiation.
