OP230WPS TT Electronics

Point Source Infrared Emitting Diode OP230WPS Point Source Symmetrical beam pattern Product Photo Here Flat lens for wide beam angle Ideal for use with collimating lenses Wide operating temperature range TO-46 metal can package The OP230WPS is an 850nm GaAlAs, point source, infrared emitting diode mounted in a hermetic flat lens, TO-46 metal can package. The advantage of this emitter is that it emits photons from a 0.004 area that is aligned with the package optical centerline. Unlike other GaAlAs emitters, this device performs more like an ideal point source and is suitable for use with lenses to create collimated light sources that can be used in and a variety of sensing applications. Applications include: Optical Encoders Light Curtains Optical Triangulation Systems Bar Code Readers 1ANODE 2CATHODE Pb RoHS Optek reserves the right to make changes at any time in order to improve design and to supply the best product possible.

(2) RMA flux is recommended. Duration can be extended to 10 seconds maximum when flow soldering. (3) Derate at 1mW/C above 25C. (4) E is a measurement of the average apertured radiant energy incident upon a sensing area 0.250 (6.35mm) in diameter and e(APT) perpendicular to and centered to the mechanical axis of the emitting surface at a distance of 0.466 (11.84mm). E is not nec- e(APT) essarily uniform within the measured area.
