Datasheet Summary
- Choice of Phototransistor (OPB706) or Photodarlington (OPB707) output
- Unfocused for sensing diffuse surface
- Low cost plastic housing
- Designed for use with PCBoards or connectors
The OPB706 consists of an infrared Light Emitting Diode (LED) and an NPN silicon Phototransistor mounted “side-by-side” on parallel axes in a black plastic housing. The OPB707 consists of an infrared LED and an NPN silicon Photodarlington mounted “side-by-side” on parallel axes in a black plastic housing.
On both OPB706 and OPB707, the LED and Phototransistor / Photodarlington are molded using dark infrared transmissive plastic to reduce ambient light noise. The Phototransistor / Photodarlington responds...
