BPW20RF Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BPW20RF is a planar Silicon PN photodiode from Vishay Dale, housed in a hermetically sealed TO-5 case. It is specifically engineered for high precision linear applications, offering a short circuit photocurrent that remains linear over seven decades of illumination. The device exhibits a strictly logarithmic correlation between open circuit voltage and illumination over the same range.

 

Key electrical specifications include a reverse voltage rating of 10V and a dark current of 2nA. Its spectral range spans from 550nm to 1040nm, with a peak sensitivity at 920nm, making it suitable for visible and near infrared radiation. The photodiode has an active area of 7.5mm² and a viewing angle of 100°.

 

Designed for through-hole mounting, the BPW20RF comes in a radial, lensed metal can package with 2 leads. Its operating temperature range is -40°C to 125°C. The photodiode is compliant with RoHS3 directives and has an MSL rating of 1.

 

Applications include use as a sensor for light measuring techniques in cameras, photometers, color analyzers, and exposure meters, as well as in various medical and industrial measuring and control systems.
