OPTEK reserves the right to make changes at any time in order to improve design and to supply the best product possible.
Description:
Each OPR2100 device is a six-element photodiode that is designed to meet the needs of motor encoder
applications. Designed specifically for industrial encoder applications, the OPR2100 features a high temperature
SMD chip carrier, a temperature range and a low leakage current that can withstand extreme operating conditions.
These devices have an opaque chip carrier that encloses six individual chips, which are mounted on isolated
cathode contacts to allow external connection in any desired configuration. The opaque polyimide package
shields the photodiodes from stray light and can withstand multiple exposures to the most demanding soldering
conditions, while the gold-plated wraparound solder pads provide exceptional storage and wetting characteristics.
See Application Bulletin 237 for handling instructions.
