Red LED suits scientific testing instruments

Opto Diode

High-output red LED

Opto Diode has launched the OD-624L high-output red LED, which features a dominant emission wavelength at 624nm (typical) and a narrow beam angle.

This makes the LED ideal for fluorescence in medical, scientific testing instruments and forensic applications, according to the company.

The lighting device delivers total power output ranging from 80mW (minimum) to 170mW (typical).

Under test conditions of 1F=350mA, the peak emission wavelength is typically 635nm and the spectral bandwidth at 50 per cent is 40nm.

Opto Diode offers the high-output red LED in a hermetically-sealed TO-5 can with three leads.

Under absolute maximum ratings at 25C, the continuous forward current is 500mA, with reverse voltage of 10V.

The lead soldering temperature (1/16in from the case for 10 seconds) is 260C, making the LED easy and convenient to install into new and existing lighting systems.

Thermal parameters for storage and operating temperatures range from -55C to 100C, with the maximum junction temperature of 115C.
