Description:
OP550, OP552, OP555, OP750,
and
OP770
series consists of a NPN silicon phototransistor molded in an epoxy package with
a wide receiving angle that provides relatively even reception over a large area. The
OP750
and
OP770
have additional
circuitry to enhance the operation of the device for stray light levels.
OP560
and
OP565
series consists of a NPN silicon photodarlington transistor molded in an epoxy package with a wide
receiving angle that provides relatively even reception over a large area.
The side-looking package design allows easy PCBoard mounting of slotted optical switches or optical interrupt detectors.
The
OP550, OP560, OP750
and
OP770
devices have an external lens in a clear epoxy package.
The
OP552
device has an integral lens in an opaque plastic package that is optically transparent to infrared light but opaque
to visible wavelengths. This feature allows the device to be used under high ambient light conditions – or anywhere
external light sources could interfere with the intended sensing application (visible light immunity).
The
OP555
and
OP565
devices have an internal lens in a blue-tinted package. The lensing effect of this package allows an
acceptance half-angle of 28° when measured from the optical axis to the half-power point.
These devices are 100% production tested using infrared light for close correlation with OPTEK’s GaAs and GaAIAs emitters.
All of these sensors are mechanically and spectrally matched to the
OP140, OP142, OP145, OP240
and
OP245
series of
infrared emitting diodes.
Please refer to Application Bulletins 208 and 210 for additional design information and reliability (degradation) data.
For custom versions please contact your OPTEK representative.

To avoid stress cracking, we suggest using
ND Industries’
Vibra-Tite
for thread-locking.
Vibra-Tite
evaporates fast without causing structural failure in
OPTEK'S molded plastics.
Notes:
1. RMA flux is recommended. Duration can be extended to 10 seconds maximum when flow soldering. A maximum 20 grams force may be applied
to the leads when soldering.
2. For OP550, OP560, OP555 and OP565, derate linearly 1.33 mW/° C above 25° C. For OP552, derate linearly 1.25 mW/° C above 25° C.
3. For all phototransistors in this series, the light source is an unfiltered GaAs LED with a peak emission wavelength of 935 nm. For OP550 and
OP555 only, a radiometric intensity level that varies less than 10% over the entire lens surface of the phototransistor being tested applies.
4. To calculate typical collector dark current in µA, use the formula I

(0.040 TA - 3.4)
, where T
A
is ambient temperature in °C.
