Opto Diodes' AlGaAs 850nm LED boosts optical output
A new gallium aluminium arsenide night vision device may improve illumination tasks
Suited for night vision illumination tasks, Opto Diodes', OD-669-850 infrared LED illuminator produces uniform optical beam and has optical output from 800 to 1,250 mW (typ) and a peak emission wavelength of 850nm.
Spectral bandwidth at 50 percent is typically 40nm, and half-intensity beam angle is 120°. All surfaces on standard 2-lead, TO-66 electrically-isolated packagense are gold plate. Operating and storage ranges are - 40 to +100°C.
Opto Diode, a division of ITW, and a member of the ITW Photonics Group, has launched the OD-669-850 high-power AlGaAs infrared IRLED illuminator.
Ideal for night vision illumination tasks, the infrared illuminator features ultra-high optical output, from 800 (minimum) to1250 mW (typical) and a peak emission wavelength of 850nm.
Opto Diode’s new device provides a uniform optical beam. The spectral bandwidth at 50 percent is typically 40 nm, and the half-intensity beam angle is 120 degrees. All surfaces on the standard 2-lead, TO-66 electrically-isolated package are gold plate.
The OD-669-850 IRLED illuminator’s operating and storage temperatures range from - 40 degrees C to +100 degrees C with a maximum junction temperature of 100 degrees C.
Power dissipation (under absolute maximum ratings at 25 degrees C) is 6 W, with a continuous forward current of 370 mA, a peak forward current of 1A and reverse voltage at 5 V. The lead soldering temperature (at 1/16 in. from case for 10 seconds) is 2600C.
Opto Diode Corporation, is a member of the ITW Photonics Group and delivers standard and custom photodetectors, and reliable, high quality, standard and custom infrared and visible LEDs.
The company, with the recent acquisition of International Radiation Detectors, also designs and manufactures semiconductor radiation devices that detect photons in the UV range, X-rays, and other high energy particles. The domestic U. S. manufacturing plant includes a wafer fab and ensures delivery of volume quantities at competitive prices with short lead times.
Opto Diodes works in a variety of industries, including test & measurement, biotechnology, medical, entertainment, military and defence, industrial, aerospace, automotive and R&D sectors.
The ITW Photonics Group was created to bring together and build on the technical expertise of three individual companies that specialise in photonics technology and span a spectrum of wavelengths.

Secure Your Hydrogen Supply
A study supply of high-purity hydrogen is critical to semiconductor fabrication. Supply chain interruptions are challenging manufacturers, leading to production slowdowns and stoppages. On-site hydrogen generation offers a scalable alternative for new and existing fabs, freeing the operator from dependence on delivered gas.Plant managers understand the critical role that hydrogen plays in semiconductor fabrication. That important job includes crystal growth, carrier gas, wafer annealing, and in the emerging Extreme UV Lithography (EUV) that will enable new generations of devices. As the vast need for semiconductors grows across all sectors of world economies, so does the need for high-purity hydrogen.
