Please help me ID this device so that I might find out more info...maybe a
data sheet or app note....on it.
==========
I salvaged a couple of HP printer/scanner/ fax combo units lately for
parts, and there is a part that is obviously the sensor component of the
scanner that I'd like to ID. It a ceramic DIP unit that looks like a long
IC with a clear glass window nearly it's full length. It has 22 pins of
which 13 are grounds, and it is mounted on a small daughterbaord in back of
a lense which focuses the image of a scanned paper, illuminated by an array
of green LED's.
There is no part number or other ID that I can see on it. What is this
called? How does it work?
Is it a part which might find it's way into a project of some sort (other
than a scanner)?
Thanks
