HL6323MG
AlGaInP Laser Diode
ADE-208-1410 (Z)
1st Edition
Mar. 2001
Description
The HL6323MG is a 0.63 µm band AlGaInP laser diode (LD) with a multi-quantum well (MQW) structure.
It is suitable as a longer distance operating range for laser markers and a higher speed for positioning
control sensors. The HL6323MG is packaged in the small can (φ5.6 mm), enabling end products to be kept
small.
