Description
The OPV220 is a high performance 850nm VCSEL pack-
aged for sensing applications. This product’s combina-
tion of features including high speed, high output power
and concentric beam make it an ideal transmitter for inte-
gration into all types of position sensing equipment.
Applications include:
♦ Photoelectric Sensors
♦ Light Curtains
♦ Position Sensors
♦ Encoders
