Description:
The OP180 is a GaAs and the OP280 series are GaAlAs infrared LED mounted in plastic leadless PLCC-2 SMD package with
a flat lens window that allows for wide beam angles. All parts endure the attribute of silicone encapsulation to increase the
longevity of the product.
The OP280V is a high performance 850nm vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL). This device requires substantially
lower current to achieve same amount of output power as LEDS. Its high speed, high output makes it versatile with low input
current. The OP280PS features a point source irradiance pattern, stable forward voltage over temperature and low rise and fall
times, making it ideal for high speed operations. The OP280K and the OP280KT are high performance, high speed, high
power IRLEDS. The OP280KT utilizes double hetero junction technology with reverse polarity terminals. The low power
consumption PLCC-2 packaging is suitable for single device or array applications.
The 180 and 280 Series LED s are mechanically and spectrally matched to OP580 series phototransistors.
Please refer to Application Bulletins 208 and 210 for additional design information and reliability (degradation) data.
Applications:
• Non-contact position sensing
• Datum detection
• Light curtains
• Photoelectronic sensors
• Machine automation
• Optical encoding
• IR illumination
• Night vision systems

Notes:
1. Solder time less than 5 seconds at temperature extreme.
2. Derate linearly at 2.17 mW/° C above 25° C.
3. EE(APT) is a measurement of the 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.
