Hi-Reliability Visible LED Lamp
(TO46)
OVM4x, OVM4xTX, OVM4xTXV
• Hermetically sealed TO-46 package
• Choice of blue, green, red or yellow
• High-brightness with well-defined spatial radiation patterns
• ESD protection built in
Each OVM4x, OVM4xTX and OVM4xTXV device is a high-reliability, high-sensitivity visible LED that is mounted
in a hermetically sealed TO-46 package.
“Hi-Reliability” Visible LEDs function in the abnormally severe levels of mechanical, environmental and electrical
stress that are typical of military and harsh industrial applications.
OVM4xTX and OVM4xTXV devices are processed to OPTEK’s 100% screening and QCI program-patterned after
MIL-PRF-19500. Group A and B are p erformed on every lot. Group C is performed every six months.
Applications
• Automotive exterior and interior lighting
• Architectural lighting
• Electronic signs and signals
