Miniature Surface Mount
LED—OPR5200
Phototransistor—OPR5500
OPTEK reserves the right to make changes at any time in order to improve design and to supply the best product possible.
Description:
The OPR5200 is a miniature high efficiency GaAIAs light emitting diode in a high temperature polyamide chip
carrier that is well suited to space-limited applications which require close channel spacing.
The OPR5500 is a miniature NPN silicon phototransistor housed in a high temperature polyamide chip carrier that
is well suited to space-limited applications which require close channel spacing.
When combing the OPR5200 and OPR5500 (miniature phototransistor), this lateral mounting option can be used
to create a non-focused reflective or slotted switch configuration.
These parts can be automatically placed with standard SMD equipment and can be reflow soldered by virtually
any conventional means. Wraparound contacts allow it to be mounted face up or on edge for a beam direction
parallel to the seating plane.
See Application Bulletin 237 for handling instructions
Features:
• Stackable on 2 mm centers
• Vertical or horizontal mounting
• Automatic pick-and-place compatible
• Combine OPR5200 and OPR5500 to create miniature switch
Applications:
• Slotted switches
• Industrial environments
• Space-limited applications
