Test Method：

The specified electro-optical characteristics is satisfied under the following

Conditions at the controllable distance.

cMeasurement place

A place that is nothing of extreme light reflected in the room.

dExternal light

Project the light of ordinary white fluorescent lamps which are not high

Frequency lamps and must be less then 10 Lux at the module surface.

(Ee≦10Lux)

eStandard transmitter

A transmitter whose output is so adjusted as to Vo=400mVp-p and the output

Wave form shown in Fig.-1.According to the measurement method shown in

Fig.-2 the standard transmitter is specified.

However , the infrared photodiode to be used for the transmitter should be

λp=940nm,∆λ=50nm. Also, photodiode is used of PD438B(Vr=5V).
