TPS818

The TPS818 has the following features including Excellent illumination output linearity;Luminous efficiency correction filter mounted on detector: p = 560 mm (typ.);Open-emitter output;Side-view package;Environmentally friendly silicon used as chip material instead of CdS;Suitable as a substitute for CdS-based products .

The TPS818 is a linear-output (current output type)  photo-IC which incorporates a photodiode and a current amp circuit in a single chip. A luminous efficiency correction filter mounted on the detector ensures accurate luminosity output levels. The device's excellent output linearity of TPS818 enables automatic adjustment of the luminosity of a TV screen or PC monitor in accordance with the ambient brightness of the operating environment.The information contained herein is presented only as a guide for the applications of our products.
