Plastic Infrared Emitting Diode
OP266AA SERIES
Features:
 T-1 (3 mm) package style
 Narrow irradiance pattern
 Dome lens
 Higher power output than GaAs at equivalent drive currents
 850 nm diode
Description:
Each device in the OP266AA series is a high intensity gallium aluminum 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:
The OP266AA family conform to the OP506 and OP535 series devices.
Please refer to Application Bulletins 208 and 210 for additional design information and reliability (degradation) data.
Applications:
 Space-limited applications
 Applications requiring coupling efficiency
 Battery-operated or voltage-limited
applications

To avoid stress cracking, we suggest using
ND Industries’ Vibra-Tite for thread-locking.
Vibra-Tite evaporates fast without causing structural
failure in OPTEK'S molded plastics.

Notes:
1. RMA flux is recommended. Duration can be extended to 10 second maximum when flow soldering. A maximum of 20 grams force
may be applied to the leads when soldering.
2. Derate linearly at 1.33 mW/° C above 25° C.
3. EE(APT) is a measurement of the average apertured radiant incidence upon a sensing area 0.081” (2.06 mm) in diameter, perpendicular
to and centered on the mechanical axis of the lens and 0.590” (14.99 mm) from the measurement surface. EE(APT) is not necessarily
uniform within the measured area.
