description

The CLE336 is an advanced, high-

efficiency, high speed AlGaAs

infrared emitting diode. Output

power exceeds standard AlGaAs

emitters by 50%. A special lens

provides a sharply focused beam

pattern. The CLE336 is designed

for use anywhere a narrow beam

pattern and very high output are

required.
