OP290 Series
Features:
Choice of narrow or wide irradiance pattern
Choice of power ranges
Choice of T-1¾, TO-18 or T-46 package
Higher power output than GaAs at equivalent LEDs
Description:
Each device in this series, is a gallium aluminum arsenide infrared Light Emitting Diode (LED) that is molded in an IR-
transmissive package with a wavelength centered at 890 nm, which closely matches the spectral response of silicon
phototransistors, except for OP298 (AA, AB, AC, AD), which has either an 850 nm or 875 nm center wavelength. For
identification purposes, each LED anode lead is longer than the cathode lead.
Package T-1¾
devices include:
OP290,
OP291, OP292, OP294, OP295, OP296, OP297, OP299 (A, B, C) and OP297FAB,
Plastic Package TO-18
or
TO-46
devices
include:
OP293
and
OP298 (A, B, C, AA, AD).
Each
OP290, OP291
and
OP292
series come in three electrical parameters options A, B and C. The
OP290
series forward
current is specified under pulse conditions up to 1.5 amps, the
OP291
series forward current is specified under pulse
conditions up to 100 milliamps and the
OP292
series forward current is specified under pulse conditions up to 1 amp. The
Cathode Lead length is 0.06” (1.52 mm) shorter than the Anode Lead. The silver-copper lead frame offers excellent thermal
characteristics.
Each OP293
and
OP298
series come in three electrical parameter options A, B and C. The
OP293
series has an included
emission angle of 60° while the
OP298
series has an included emission angle of 25°. The Cathode Lead length is 0.06” (1.52
mm) shorter than the Anode Lead. These devices, which come in a variety of power ranges offering a low cost replacement
for TO-18 or TO-46 hermetic packages.
Each OP298
series come with a high irradiance output versions with four electrical parameter options AA, AB, AC and AD.
These power options are in the range of
5X
greater than the A, B or C options. The
OP298
series has an included emission
angle of 25°. The Cathode Lead length is 0.06” (1.52 mm) shorter than the Anode Lead. These devices, which come in a
variety of power ranges offering a low cost replacement for TO-18 or TO-46 hermetic packages.
OP294
and
OP299
are designed for low-current or power-limited applications, such as battery supplies. They are similar to
the
OP290
and
OP295,
but use a smaller chip that increases output efficiency at low current levels by increasing current
density. Light output can be maximized with continuous (D.C.) forward current up to 100 mA or with pulsed forward
current up to 750 mA. The Cathode Lead length is 0.06” (1.52 mm) shorter than the Anode Lead.
Each
OP295, OP296
and
OP297
series come in three electrical parameters options A, B and C. The
OP295
series forward
current is specified under pulse conditions up to 5 amps, the
OP296
series forward current is specified under pulse
conditions up to 2 amps and the
OP297
series forward current is specified under pulse conditions up to 1 amp. The Cathode
Lead length is 0.06” (1.52 mm) shorter than the Anode Lead. The
OP297FAB
has a reversed polarity from the
OP297A, B.
The silver-copper lead frame offers excellent thermal characteristics.
All of these devices are spectrally and mechanically matched to the OP593 and OP598 series phototransistors.
Please refer to Application Bulletins 208 and 210 for additional design information and reliability (degradation) data.

Notes:
1. Measurement is taken at the end of a single 100 µs pulse. Heating due to increased pulse rate or pulse width will cause a decrease in reading.
2. Measurement of the average apertured radiant energy incident upon a sensing area 0.250” (6.35 mm) in diameter perpendicular to and centered
on the mechanical axis of the lens and the specified distance from the end of the device. On all models in this series, E
E(APT)
is not necessarily
uniform within the measured area.
3. Measurement is taken at the end of a single 10 ms pulse. Heating due to increased pulse rate or pulse width will cause a decrease in reading.
