DESCRIPTION

An Infrared emitter, or IR emitter, is a source of light energy in the infrared spectrum. This little part is a light emitting diode (LED) that is used in order to transmit infrared signals from a remote control. This simple device operates at 940nm and works well for generic IR systems. This emitter is driven up to 50mA with a current limiting resistor as with any LED device.

FEATURES
  • Continuous Forward Current: 50mA
  • Reverse Voltage: 5V
  • Operating Temperature: -25~+85°C
  • Wavelength: 940nm
  • Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Typ): 1.2V
  • Viewing Angle: 60°
  • Orientation: Side View
