About this manual

The TSUS4300 is a 950 nm infrared emitting diode fabricated with standard GaAs technology and housed in a clear, bluetinted plastic T‑1 package (3 mm diameter). Its lens delivers high radiant intensity without external optics, making it suitable for remote‑control systems, reflective sensors, and end‑point detection.

The document lists electrical ratings such as a forward voltage of about 1.3 V, a continuous forward current of 200 mA (2 A surge), and a maximum junction temperature of 100 °C. Optical data include a peak wavelength of 950 nm, radiant power of 20 mW at 100 mA, and a half‑intensity angle of ±16°. The device is lead‑free and complies with RoHS and WEEE directives.
