External filter (RG850) improves the suppression of
ambient light by a factor of ca. 20 to 30.

Examples of output signals
The oscilloscope pictures show the signal patterns at
iC-OD outputs IAC1 and IAC2 when receiving a 5 µs
light pulse. The differential signal shown has been cal-
culated. Both of the outputs are terminated with 10 kΩ.
An external filter is not used.
