High brightness on surface mount LEDs.
Agilent Technologies has introduced a series of surface-mount LEDs designed and qualified specifically for automobile interior and exterior lighting applications.
The Agilent HSDL-4261 IR emitter provides manufacturers with a low-cost illumination source suitable for a broad range of applications, from communication devices and IR LANs to consumer products such as optical mice, IR headphones, microphones and keyboards.
The HSDL-4261 emitter features 15ns rise time and 45ns fall time (10 to 90%), with intensities of up to 180mW/sr (typical) from 100mA current at a 26-degree viewing angle.
It operates at the 870nm optical wavelength and is supplied in an industry-standard 5mm (T-1.75) form-factor package.
The Agilent IR emitter is built with iron lead frames that dissipate power efficiently over a wide range of currents.
The forward voltage is a low 1.40V at 20mA, which, in some applications, allows two or more of the emitters to be connected in series without exceeding the supply-voltage capability.
The HSDL-4261 is available now through Agilent's direct sales channel and worldwide distribution partners. Request a free brochure from Avago Technologies ...
