OPB853A1

Product Bulletin OPB853A July 1996 Slotted Optical Switches Types OPB853A1, OPB853A2, OPB853A3 Features • Inexpensive opaque plastic housing • 0.125" (3.18 mm) wide slot • 0.290" (7.37 mm) lead spacing • Apertured for high resolution • Photodarlington output Description The OPB853A series of slotted optical switches consist of an infrared emitting diode and an NPN silicon photodarlington. They are mounted on opposite sides of a 0.125" (3.18 mm) wide slot. The emitter has a 0.050" X 0.050" (1.27 mm X 1.27 mm) molded-in aperture while the photodarlington has a 0.010" X 0.050" (0.254 mm X 1.27 mm) molded-in aperture.

(4) Methanol and isopropanol are recommended as cleaning agents. Housings are soluble in chlorinated hydrocarbons and ketones. Highly activated, water soluble fluxes may attack housings in some situations. Optek Technology, Inc. 1215 W.
