Description
The TSL260R, TSL261R, and TSL262R are infrared light-to-voltage optical sensors, each combining a
photodiode and a transimpedance amplifier (feedback resistor = 16 MΩ, 8 MΩ, and 2.8 MΩ respectively) on a
single monolithic IC. Output voltage is directly proportional to the light intensity (irradiance) on the photodiode.
These devices have improved amplifier offset-voltage stability and low power consumption and are supplied
in a 3-lead plastic sidelooker package with an integral visible light cutoff filter and lens. When supplied in the
lead (Pb) free package, the device is RoHS compliant.

4. Optical measurements are made using small-angle incident radiation from an LED optical source.
5. The input irradiance Ee is supplied by a GaAs LED with peak wavelength λp = 940 nm
6. Irradiance responsivity is characterized over the range VO = 0.05 to 2.9 V. The best-fit straight line of Output Voltage VO versus
irradiance Ee over this range will typically have a positive extrapolated VO value for Ee = 0.
