Description:

Each OP123 and OP124 device is a 935 nanometer (nm) high intensity gallium arsenide infrared emi ng diode (GaAs),

mounted in a miniature herme cally sealed “pill” package with an enhanced temperature range and a high power output.

These devices are designed for direct moun ng to PCBoards.

Each OP223 and OP224 device is an 890 nm gallium aluminum arsenide infrared emi ng diode (GaAIAs), mounted in a

herme cally sealed “pill” package with an enhanced temperature range and a narrow irradiance pa ern that provides high

on-axis intensity for excellent coupling efficiency. These devices offer significantly higher power output than GaAs at

equivalent drive currents and have a wavelength that is matched to silicon’s peak response. Their small package size

permits high device density moun ng.

All these LEDs are mechanically and spectrally matched to the OP300 series, OP600 series and OP640 series devices.

Please refer to Applica on Bulle ns 208 and 210 for addi onal design informa on and reliability (degrada on) data, and to

Applica on Bulle n 202 for pill-type soldering to PCBoard.
