High Speed Infrared Emitting Diode, 870 nm,
GaAlAs Double Hetero
DESCRIPTION
VSMF4720 is an infrared, 870 nm emitting diode in GaAlAs
double hetero (DH) technology with high radiant power and
high speed, molded in a PLCC-2 package for surface
mounting (SMD). A 19" chip provides outstanding low
forward voltage and radiant intensity even at 1 A pulse
current.
