BPW34 Silicon Photocell / PIN Photodiode (5 pcs)
DIP-2 light sensor for visible and near-infrared light
A pack of five BPW34 silicon PIN photodiodes in a 2-pin DIP package. The BPW34 has a large radiant-sensitive area and fast response, making it a common choice for light measurement, IR receivers, light barriers and small photovoltaic (photocell) experiments with Arduino, Raspberry Pi and other microcontrollers.
Key Features:
Silicon PIN photodiode with a large sensitive area (approx. 7.5 mm²)
Sensitive from visible light into the near infrared (approx. 430 – 1100 nm, peak around 900 nm)
Can be used in photoconductive (reverse-biased) or photovoltaic mode
2-pin DIP through-hole package, breadboard friendly
