BPW21R

www.vishay.com BPW21R Vishay Semiconductors Silicon Photodiode 94 8394 DESCRIPTION BPW21R is a planar Silicon PN photodiode in a hermetically sealed short TO-5 case, especially designed for high precision linear applications. Due to its extremely high dark resistance, the short circuit photocurrent is linear over seven decades of illumination level. On the other hand, there is a strictly logarithmic correlation between open circuit voltage and illumination over the same range. The device is equipped with a flat glass window with built in color correction filter, giving an approximation to the spectral response of the human eye. FEATURES Package type: leaded Package form: TO-5 Dimensions (in mm): Ø 8.13 Radiant sensitive area (in mm2): 7.5 High photo sensitivity Adapted to human eye responsivity Angle of half sensitivity: ϕ = ± 50° Hermetically sealed package Cathode connected to package Flat glass window Low dark current High shunt resistance High linearity Compliant to RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC and in accordance with WEEE 2002/96/EC APPLICATIONS Sensor in exposure and color measuring purposes PRODUCT SUMMARY COMPONENT BPW21R Ira (μA) 9 Note Test condition see table “Basic Characteristics” ϕ (deg) ± 50 λ0.5 (nm) 420 to 675 ORDERING INFORMATION ORDERING CODE BPW21R Note MOQ: minimum order quantity PACKAGING Bulk REMARKS MOQ: 500 pcs, 500 pcs/bulk PACKAGE FORM TO-5 ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS (Tamb = 25 °C, unless otherwise specified...
