CLE250

PRELIMINARY

Aluminum Gallium Arsenide IRED

Miniature Hermetic Sealed Package

features

• 880nm wavelength

• ±9° emission angle

• Miniature hermetic package

• High power output

description

The CLE250 is an 880nm, AlGaAs

infrared-emitting diode mounted in a

hermetically sealed package with a

glass lens. This package is

ideally suited for mounting into

double-sided PC boards and is

capable of reliable operation over a

wide temperature range.

notes: 3. Irradiance (power/unit area) is measured within a 0.031" (0.78mm) diameter area, centered on the

mechanical axis of the device and spaced 0.50" (12.7mm) from the lens side of the tab. This is geometrically

equivalent to a 3.5° cone.
