SIR-34ST3F
The SIR-34ST3F is a GaAs infrared light emitting diode housed in clear plastic. This device has a high luminous
efficiency and a 950nm spectrum suit able for silicon detec tors. It is small and at the same time has a wide radiation a ngle,
marking it ideal for compact optical control equipment.
zApplications
Optical control equipmen t
Light source for remote control devi ces
zFeatures
1) Compact (φ3.1mm).
2) High efficiency, high output P
O=8.0mW (IF=50mA).
3) Wide radiation angle θ=27°.
4) Emission spectrum well suited to silicon detectors
(λ
P=950nm).
5) Good current-optical output linearity.
6) Long life, high reliability .
