The **OPB611, OPB621** slotted optical switch consists of an infrared emitting diode and a PIN photodiode with a polysulfone housing that is opaque to visible light, but transmissive to infrared. The low tr/tf of the PIN photodiode is ideal for highspeed operation. The sensitivity to ambient radiation is minimized. Custom electrical, wire and cabling and connectors are available.

A maximum of 20 grams force may be applied to leads when soldering. (2) Derate linearly 1.33 mW/°C above 25 ° C. (3) Derate linearly 2.0 mW/°C above 25 ° C. (4) Plastic body is soluble in chlorinated hydrocarbons and keytones. It is recommended that a trial exposure to flux & cleaning chemicals is performed to ensure sensor is not damaged. **General Note TT Electronics reserves the right to make changes in product specification without notice or liability.
