Note:
1. The output voltage (Vout) is the product of photocurrent (IPH) and loading resistor (RL)
2. A right loading resistor shall be chosen to meet the requirement of maximum ambient light,
and output saturation voltage:
Vout(max.) = Iout(max.) × RL ≦ Vout(saturation)=Vcc-0.8V
3. To avoid 60Hz ripple from fluorescent lamps, we suggest that the time constant must be
greater than 0.5 second:
RL × CL ≧ 0.5

Recommended method of storage
Reflow Terms: JEDEC Level 3 Specification
Dry box storage is recommended as soon as the aluminum bag has been opened prevent
moisture absorption. The following conditions should be observed, if dry boxes are not available:

Storage temperature 10℃ to 30℃

Storage humidity ≦60%RH max
After more than 168 hours under these conditions moisture content will be too high for
reflow soldering. In case of moisture absorption, the devices will recover to former condition by drying under the
following condition:
192 hours at 40℃+5℃/-0℃ and 5%RH (dry air / nitrogen), or
96 hours at 60℃+5℃ and < 5%RH for all device containers, or
24 hours at 125℃+5℃ not suitable for reel or tubes
ESD Precaution:
Proper storage and handing procedures should be followed to prevent ESD damage to
the devices especially when they are removed from the Anti-static bag. Electro-Static Sensitive Devices warning
labels are on the packing.
Recommended Solder Profile
Notice:
(1) Reflow soldering should not be done more than two times.
(2) When soldering, do not put stress on the devices during heating.
(3) After soldering, do not warp the circuit board.

Soldering Iron
Each terminal is to go to the tip of soldering iron temperature less than 350℃ for 3 seconds within once in less than
the soldering iron capacity 25W. Leave two seconds and more intervals, and do soldering of each terminal. Be
careful because the damage of the product is often started at the time of the hand solder.
Repairing
Repair should not be done after the device have been soldered. When repairing is unavoidable, a double-head
soldering iron should be used (as below figure). It should be confirmed beforehand whether the characteristics of the
device will or will not be damaged by repairing.
