Can anyone recognize this module in this pic here? I am analysing a circuit and it would help me a lot!

\$\begingroup\$ It looks like a bunch of photodiodes like something Hamamatsu might offer. \$\endgroup\$– Andy akaJun 14, 2019 at 17:38

1\$\begingroup\$ It would help to know the length, the type of circuit it came from, and anything else about it. Was it poking out through a whole in the case of whatever it was in, for example? \$\endgroup\$– Jack BJun 14, 2019 at 17:43

If you don't need anymore help, please close the question or you can answer your own question and accept your answer. \$\endgroup\$– user103380Jun 14, 2019 at 18:24

It the TLC1401C Linear Sensor Array from AMS.
It has 128 tiny photodiodes. We use it for reading codes in
absolute positioning systems.
