VTR16

This series of reflective type optical switches combines a GaAs LED with an NPN phototransistor in a one piece sealed IR transmitting plastic case.Debris and moisture cannot degrade operation.Units are available with P.C.Board mounting leads, and 12 inch AWG #26 leads with or without a four position connector attached.

Features of VTR16 are: (1)sealed case-no dust problems due to holes or seams; (2)built-in IR transmitting filter; (3)high sensitivity; (4)low cost module; (5)P.C.mount or flying leads with/without connector; (6)wide range sensing(0-8mm); (7)small size(stackable); (8)slotted flange for single mounting scew.

The characteristics of VTR16 can be summerized as: (1)storage temperature range is -40 to +100; (2)operating temperature range is -40 to +85; (3)lead soldering temp.1.6mm from case, 5 sec.max is 260; (4)reverse voltage, VR at IF is 100 uA is 2.0 V; (5)continuous forward current, IF is 40 mA; (6)forward voltage drop VF at IF is 20 mA is 1.6 V; (7)VBRCEO at Ic is 100 uA is 30 V; (8)VBRCEO at IC is 100 uA is 5.0 V; (9)power disspation is 50 mW derate 0.67 mW/ above 25.
