Description
The HL6740FG is a 0.67 µm band AlGaInP laser diode with a multi-quantum well (MQW) structure. It is an array of
two individual beams on one chip. Therefore, it is suitable as a light source for a high-speed printer, such as PPC and
LBP, and so on.
Features
• Continuous operating output to each beam: 5 mW CW
• Visible light output: 675 nm Typ
• Difference of wavelength between 2 beams
: 3 nm Max
• Low threshold current: 35 mA Typ
Package Type
• HL6740FG: FG
