Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser TO-46 Package Laser Diode VCSEL 860 nm

Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser in TO-46 Package Laser Diode VCSEL 860 nm 12 mA TO-46, 2, 1.5 mW RoHS Compliant: Yes

The OPV302 is a Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) packaged in a dome lens TO-46 package. VCSELs offer many advantages in sensing applications when compared to infrared LEDs. These devices require substantially lower drive currents to obtain the same amount of output power as LEDs. This feature allows VCSELs to be used in low power consumption applications such as battery operated equipment.

The dome lens packaging creates a narrow beam angle from the device. Long distance applications may benefit from this feature as secondary optics may be eliminated, reducing total system cost. The OPV302 is optically and spectrally compatible with Optek’s standard detector products such as the OP800 series phototransistors, OP830 series photodarlingtons and the OP910 photodiode.
