Features:

• Flat lens for wide radiation angle (OP168, OP268)

• Integral lens for narrow beam angle (OP269)

• Easily stackable on 0.100” (2.54 mm) hole centers

• Mechanically and spectrally matched to other OPTEK devices

Description:

Each diode in this series is molded into an end-looking plastic package. The package for all OP168F and OP268F devices is black, whereas the package for all OP269 packages is clear. OP168F devices are GaAs. OP268F and OP269 devices are GaAIAs.

Due to their small size, all diodes in this series offer considerable design flexibility.

The OP168F and OP268F series are mechanically and spectrally matched to the OP508F series phototransistor and the OP538F series photodarlingtons. The OP269 series are mechanically and spectrally matched to the OP509 series phototransistors.

Please refer to Application Bulletins 208 and 210 for additional design information and reliability (degradation) data.
