Description
The OP230WPS is an 850 nm, top
surface emitting, IRED. The .004”
emitting area centered under a
nondistorting flat lens can be used in
many applications where external lensing
is desired.
NOTES:
(1) RMA flux is recommended. Duration can be ex tended to 10 seconds maximum when flow
soldering.
(2) Derate linearly 2.0mW/°C above 25°C.
(3) E e(APT) is a measurement of the average apertured radiant in cidence upon a sensing area
.250” (6.35 mm) in diameter, perpendicular to and centered on the mechanical axis of the
lens, and .466”(11.84 mm) from the measurement surface. Ee(APT) is not necessarily
uniform within the measured area.
The stable VF vs. Temperature
characteristic make them ideal for
applications were voltage is limited
(such as battery operation).
The low tr /tf make them ideal for high
speed operations.
