OPB830L

The features of OPB830L can be summarized as (1)0.125" (3.18 mm) wide slot; (2)choice of aperture; (3)choice of opaque or IR transmissive shell material; (4)side mounting configuration; (5)choice of lead spacing.

The OPB830L series of slotted switches provides the design engineer with the flexibility of a custom device from a standard product line. Discrete shells (exposed only on the parallel faces inside the device throat) are either IR transmissive plastic for applications where aperture contamination may occur or opaque plastic with aperture openings for maximum protection against ambient light. Building from a standard housing with a: 125" (3.18 mm) wide slot, the user can specify (1)electrical output parameters, (2) choice of lead spacing, (3) discrete shell material and (4) aperture width. All housings are an opaque grade of injection-molded plastic to minimize the assembly's sensitivity to ambient radiation, both visible and near-infrared.

The absolute maximum ratings of OPB830L are (1)storage and operating temperature range: -40°C to +85°C; (2)lead soldering temperature [1/16 inch (1: 6 mm) from iron]: 240°C(RMA flux is recommended. duration can be extended to 10sec. max. when flow soldering); (3)forward DC current: 50mA; (4)peak forward current (1s pulse width, 300 pps):3.0A; (5)reverse DC voltage: 2.0V; (6)power dissipation: 100mW(derate linearly 1.67mW/°C above 250°C); (7)collector-emitter voltage: 30V; (8)emitter-collector voltage: 5.0V; (9)collector DC current: 30mA; (10)power dissipation: 100mW.
