OP166A overview

OP166A is a component documented by TT Electronics. The PDF description identifies it as "Plastic Infrared Emitting Diode." This guide condenses the most useful engineering information from the available PDF so that designers and sourcing teams can identify the checks that still need confirmation in the original document.

Datasheet snapshot

  • Manufacturer: TT Electronics.
  • Part number: OP166A
  • Category: IC
  • Datasheet length: 4 Pages

Specifications and operating details

The following points were extracted from the PDF text. Check the associated conditions, notes and limits in the complete document before using a value in a design.

  • Applications:  Space-limited applications  Applications requiring coupling efficiency Features:  T-1 (3 mm) package style  Choice of narrow or wide irradiance pattern  Choice of dome lens or flat lens  Mechanically and spectrally mat.
  • EE(APT) is a measurement of the average apertured rediant incidence ipon a sensing area 0.081” (2.06 mm) in diameter, perpendicular to and centered on the mechanical axis of the lens, and 0.590” (14.99 mm) from the measurement surface.

Topics covered by the datasheet

The document includes sections related to:

  • Ordering Information

Engineering review checklist

  • Confirm repetitive reverse voltage, average forward current, surge current and leakage at the intended temperature.
  • Check forward-voltage loss and reverse-recovery behavior at the actual current and switching frequency.
  • Review package thermal resistance, copper area, polarity marking and transient derating before layout release.

Always confirm values against the latest manufacturer-controlled datasheet, especially when qualifying a substitute or releasing a production BOM.
