Plastic Infrared Emitting Diode
OP290 Series
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.
