General Note
TT Electronics reserves the right to make changes in product specicaon without
noce or liability. All informaon is subject to TT Electronics’ own data and is
considered accurate at me of going to print.
Descripon: All components in this series include a photodiode, amplifier, voltage regulator, Schmitt trigger and
NPN output transistor on a single silicon chip. OPL560 chips also include a voltage regulator on the chip. All
devices in the series have a Photologic® chip that is encapsulated in a molded plastic side-looking package with
an integral lens (recessed integral lens for OPL535 and OPL536). This packaging provides enhanced optical
coupling, combined with mechanical protection. The hysteresis characteristics of the Schmitt trigger on each
device offers high immunity to noise on input and VCC.
OPL530, OPL531, OPL535 and OPL536 include a 10 K Ω pull-up resistor (RL) from output to VCC. These
components exhibit very stable performance over supply voltages ranging from 4.5 V to 16 V and a wide range of
irradiance levels. OPL550 and OPL551 devices feature TTL/LSTTL compatible logic level output which can drive
up to 8 TTL loads without additional circuitry and medium-speed data rates to 250 kBaud, with typical rise and fall
times of 25 nanoseconds. OPL560, OPL561, OPL562 and OPL563 devices feature TTL/LSTTL compatible logic
level output which can drive up to 10 TTL loads over supply voltages ranging from 4.5 V to 16 V.
OPL530, OPL531, OPL550, OPL551, OPL560, OPL561, OPL562 and OPL563 are mechanically and spectrally
matched to OP140 and OP240 LEDs. OPL535 and OPL536 are mechanically and spectrally matched to OP145
and OP245 series LEDs.
Applicaons: Non-contact reecve object sensor, Assembly line automaon, Machine automaon, Machine safety, End of travel
sensor, Door sensor
Features:
Choice of four output opons in low-cost side-looking package
Choice of two sensivity opons (OPL560/561/562/563)
High noise immunity
Direct TTL/LSTTL CMOS interface

Notes:
(1) RMA ux is recommended. Duraon can be extended to 10 sec. max. when ow soldering. For OPL530, OPL530-OC, OPL536, a maximum
of 20 grams force may be applied to leads while at soldering temperatures.
(2) Derate linearly 2.67 mW/°C above 70° C for OPL530, OPL530-OC, OPL531, OPL531-OC, OPL535, OPL535-OC, OPL536 and OPL536-OC. De-
rate linearly 2.5 mW/° C above 25° C for all devices in the OPL550, OPL551, OPL560, OPL561, OPL562 and OPL563 series.
(3) Irradiance measurements are made with λi = 935 nm.
(4) This applies to OC versions only. For ICC on pull-up versions, add VCC/10 KΩ.
