phototransistors www .optoelectronics.perkinelmer.com 19 description phototransistors are photodiode-amplifier combinations integrated within a single silicon chip. these are combined to overcome the major fault of photodiodes: unity gain. many applications demand a greater output signal from the photodetector than can be generated by a photodiode alone. while the signal from a photodiode can always be amplified through use of an external op-amp or other circuitry, this approach is often not as practical or as cost-effective as the use of phototransistors. the phototransistor can be viewed as a photodiode whose output photocurrent is fed into the base of a conventional small-signal transistor . while not required for operation of the device as a photodetector, a base connection is often provided, allowing the designer the option of using base current to bias the transistor. the typical gain of a phototransistor can range from 100 to over 1500. phototransistors can be used as ambient-light detectors. when used with a controllable light source, typically an ired, they ar e often employed as the detector element for optoisolators and transmissive or reflective optical switches. all phototransistors are rohs compliant. features ? low-cost visible and near-ir p hotodetection ? available with gains from 100 t o over 1500 ? moderately fast response times ? available in a wide range of packages including epoxy-coated, transfer-molded, cast, hermetic packages, chip form and surface mounting technology ? usable with almost any visible or near-infrared light source such as ireds, neon, fluorescent, incandescent bulbs, lasers, flame sources, sunlight, etc. ? same general electrical characteristics as familiar signal transistors typical applications ?computer/business equipment ?write-protect control ? mar gin contr olsrinters ?industrial ? led light sourceight pens ? security systems ?safety shields ?consumer ? coin counters ? lottery card readers ? position sensorsoysticks ?remote controllersoys, appliances, audio/visual equipment ? gamesaser tag ? camera shutter control principle of operation phototransistors ar e solid-state light detectors that possess inter nal gain. they can be used to provide either an analog or digital output signal. datasheets available upon request. absolute maximum ratings max imum t emperatur es -25 to 80 c (cr10te, cr50te) storage and operating: -40c to 100 -40 c to 110 (vtt1015, vtt1016, vtt1017, vtt1115, vtt1116, and vtt1117) -40 to 85 c (vtt7222, vtt7223, vtt7225, vtt7122, vtt7123, and vtt7125) -40 to 70 c (vtt9002, vtt9003, vtt9102, and vtt9103) continuous power dissipation: 50 mw 100 mw (vtt9002, vtt9003, vtt9102, and vtt9103) 200 mw (cr10te, cr50te) 250 mw (vtt1015, vtt1016, vtt1017, vtt1115, vtt1116, and vtt1117) derate above 30: 0.71 mw/?c 2.5 mw/?c (vtt9002, vtt9003, vtt9102, and vtt9103) 3.12 mw/?c (vtt1015, vtt1016, vtt1017, vtt1115, vtt1116, and vtt1117) 0.91 mw/?c (vtt7122, vtt7123, vtt7125) maximum current: 25 ma 200 ma (vtt1015, vtt1016, vtt1017, vtt1115, vtt1116, and vtt1117) lead-soldering temperature: 260 (1.6 mm from case, 5 sec. max.) phototransistors
