Datasheet -- SEP8736-001 SEP8736-001 SEP Series AlGaAs Infrared Emitting Diode, Side-looking Plastic Package Representative photograph, actual product appearance may vary. Features ● ● ● ● Due to regional agency approval requirements, some products may not be available in your area. Please contact your regional Honeywell office regarding your product of choice. ● Side-looking plastic package 10 ° (nominal) beam angle 880 nm wavelength Enhanced coupling distance Mechanically and spectrally matched to SDP8436 phototransistor Description The SEP8736 is an aluminum gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode molded in a side-emitting smoke gray plastic package. The body and integral lens design combines the mounting advantage of a sideemitting package with the narrow emission pattern of a T-1 style device. The SEP8736 IRED is designed for those applications which require longer coupling distances than standard side-emitting devices can provide, such as touch screens. The IRED is also especially well suited to applications in which adjacent channel crosstalk could be a problem.
