High-power infra-red laser diode has an optical output power of 150mW

Available now from Photonic Products, the Sanyo DL-8142-201 830nm high-power infra-red laser diode has an optical output power of 150mW. This diode is supplied in a 5.6mm package that is easier to manufacture than the 9mm package diode which it replaces, resulting in a lower cost laser diode.

The Sanyo DL-8142-201 laser diode has the additional benefit of a lower aspect ratio than its predecessor, which gives improved typical beam divergence of 16 degrees, making the diode ideal for use in night vision, distance measurement and printing.

It is also suitable for use as a light source in applications where the high optical power output combined with the small package size is critical.

Supplied in a tiny 5.6mm package, the Sanyo DL-8142-201 is an 830nm infra-red wavelength laser diode with a very high optical output power of 150mW at 50C.

It has a low threshold current of 50mA (typical), a typical operating current of 200mA, low operating voltage of 1.9V, monitoring output current of 0.4mA, differential efficiency of 1.0mW/mA and an operating temperature range of -10 to +50C.

It requires a negative (N type) power supply system.

The Sanyo DL-8142-201 laser diode is lead (Pb) free in compliance with the RoHS Directive. Request a free brochure from Photonic Products....
