Plastic Infrared Emitting Diode

OP265AA Series

Features:

Description:

Each device in the OP265AA series is a high intensity gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode (GaAIAs) that is

molded in an IR transmissive clear or amber-tinted epoxy package with a dome lens. Devices feature a narrow

source irradiance pattern and a variety of electrical characteristics. The small T-1 package style makes these

devices ideal for space-limited applications.

These devices are mechanically and spectrally matched to other OPTEK products as follows:

OP265 devices conform to the OP505 and OP535 series devices.

Please refer to Application Bulletins 208 and 210 for additional design information and reliability (degradation) data.
