Near-infrared LED illuminator for surveillance and night-vision applications introduced by Opto Diode
CAMARILLO, Calif. – Opto Diode Corp. in Camarillo, Calif., is introducing the OD-663-850 gallium aluminum arsenide (GaAlAs) near-infrared LED illuminator with ultra-high-power output for surveillance and night-vision applications.
The device has a uniform optical beam with a peak emission wavelength of 850 nanometers.
Other features include total power output from a minimum of 300 milliwatts to a typical output of 425 milliwatts, with typical forward voltage from 4.8 volts to a maximum of 5.4 volts.
The spectral bandwidth is 40 nanometers with a half-intensity beam angle of 120 degrees for surveillance and night-vision uses. Reverse breakdown voltage ranges from a minimum of 5 volts to a typical rating of 30 volts; rise and fall times are 100 nanoseconds, respectively.
