Description:
Each diode in this series is molded into an end-looking plasƟc package. The package for all OP168F and OP268F devices is black, whereas the package for all OP169 and OP269 packages is clear. OP168F and OP169 devices are GaAs. OP268F and OP269 devices are GaAIAs.
The OP268FPS is an 850nm gallium aluminum arsenide infrared emiƫng diode molded in a end-looking miniature plasƟc package. The advantage of this emiƩer is that it emits photons from a 0.004” area that is aligned with the package opƟcal centerline. Unlike other GaAlAs emiƩers, this device performs more like an ideal point source and is suitable for use with lenses to create collimated light sources that can be used in a variety of applicaƟons.

FEATUREs:
• Flat lens for wide radiation angle (OP168, OP268)
• Integral lens for narrow beam angle (OP169, OP269)
• Easily stackable on 0.100” (2.54 mm) hole centers
• Mechanically and spectrally matched to other OPTEK devices

APPLICATIONs:
• Space-limited applications
• Excellent design flexibility
• PCBoard mounted slotted switch
• PCBoard interrupter
