About this manual

The BPV22NF(L) is a high‑speed, high‑sensitivity silicon PIN photodiode packaged in a plastic body with a spherical side‑view lens that also acts as an IR filter. The lens and chip are matched to provide a wide viewing angle of about 60° and improved sensitivity compared with flat‑package devices.

The device is intended for infrared remote‑control and free‑air transmission systems, especially in the 830‑880 nm wavelength range. Key specifications include a reverse voltage rating of 60 V, typical forward voltage of 1.3 V at 50 mA, peak spectral sensitivity at 940 nm, and a rise time of 100 ns. Package dimensions and mechanical drawings are provided for board layout.
