OPB804..

## Slotted Optical Switch 

## OPB804 

## **Features:** 

- Non-contact switch 

- PCB mount 

- Wide aperture 

- Opaque body to minimize sensitivity to ambient light 

## **Description:** 

OPB804 is a non-contact optical switch with a NPN silicon phototransistor and infrared Light Emitting Diode (LED) which are mounted on opposite sides of a 0.155” ( 3.94 mm) wide slot. 

The device body is a single molded piece opaque plastic that reduces ambient light interference. A wide open aperture makes it versatile for general applications.  LED emissions are near-infrared (850 – 940nm). 

## **Applications:** 

- Non-contact object sensing 

- Assembly line automation 

- Machine automation 

- Equipment security 

- Machine safety

(2) Feature controlled at body. 

- (3) Cathode lead may be shorter. 

(4) RMA flux recommended. Highly activated water soluble fluxes may attack plastic. Recommend trial to verify application. 

(5) Maximum lead soldering temperature .060” [1.6mm] from case for 5 seconds with soldering iron. 

(6) Plastic is soluble in chlorinated hydrocarbons and ketones. Methanol or isopropanol are recommended as cleaning agents. 

(7) Derate linearly 1.67 mW/°C above 25° C. 

(8) All parameters tested using pulse techniques. 

(9) Do not connect input diode directly to a voltage source without an external current limiting resistor. (10) Do not apply reverse voltage to LED.  LED will be a 0V in reverse voltage and draw current as if a short.
