This document is a product bulletin for the Optek OP130 series, which includes types OP130, OP131, OP132, and OP133. These are high-intensity gallium arsenide infrared emitting diodes mounted in hermetic TO-46 housings. They are designed for beam interrupt applications and are mechanically and spectrally matched to specific phototransistors and photodarlingtons.
The datasheet provides absolute maximum ratings, such as a reverse voltage of 2.0V and a continuous forward current of 100 mA. It also details electrical characteristics including radiant power output ranging from 1.0 mW to 5.0 mW depending on the specific type, a peak emission wavelength of 935 nm, and an emission angle of 18 degrees at half power points.
