Derate linearly 4.0mA/°C from 25°C free air temperature to TA = +125°C. AlGaAs emitter. High power output is 3. Derate linearly 4.0mW/°C from 25°C free air temperature to TA = +125°C. achieved with four equally spaced 4. Operation at this level requires a proper heat sink. cathode contacts for higher current distribution. Cathode contacts are bonded in pairs, each pair bonded to a separate lead, which need to be connected during operation. Chip size is 0.030” by 0.030”. The TO-46 header provides reliable operation over a wide temperature range. storage temperature ...................................................................... -40°C to +125°C operating temperature ................................................................... -40°C to +100°C lead soldering temperature(1) ......................................................................... 260°C (2)(4) ..................................................................... 500mA continuous forward current peak forward current (1.0ms pulse width, 10% duty cycle) .................................. 4A reverse voltage .................................................................................................... 5V continuous power dissipation(3) .................................................................... 500mW electrical characteristics (TA = 25°C unless otherwise noted) symbol PO VF IR λp BW θHP tr, tf parameter Total power output Forward voltage Reverse current Peak emission wavelength Spectral bandwidth at half power it Emission angle at half power points Radiation rise and fall time min - typ 8.0 1.65 880 45 100 700 max 1.8 10 - units mW V µA nm nm deg. ns test conditions IF = 100mA IF = 100mA VR = 5V IF = 100mA IF = 100mA IF = 100mA IF(PK) = 100mA, f = 1kHz, D.C. = 50% Clairex reserves the right to make changes at any time to improve design and to provide the best possible product.
