Description

TEMT6200FX01 ambient light sensor is a silicon NPN epitaxial planar phototransistor in a miniature transparent 0805 package for surface mounting. It is sensitive to visible light much like the human eye and has peak sensitivity at 550 nm.

Features

  • Package type: surface mount
  • Package form: 0805
  • Dimensions (L x W x H in mm): 2 x 1.25 x 0.85
  • AEC-Q101 qualified
  • High photo sensitivity
  • Adapted to human eye responsivity
  • Suppression filter for near infrared radiation
  • Angle of half sensitivity: ± 60°
  • Floor life: 168 h, MSL 3, acc. J-STD-020
  • Lead (Pb)-free reflow soldering

Applications

  • Automotive sensors
