The Honeywell SE5455-001 series consists of a gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode mounted in a TO-46 metal can package. The SE5455 series features a glass lensed can providing a narrow beam angle. These devices are constructed with dual bond wires suitable for pulsed current applications, offering high power dissipation capability and are ideally suited for operation in hostile environments. They are mechanically and spectrally matched to SD3421/5421 photodiodes, SD3443/5443/5491 phototransistors, SD3410/5410 photodarlington and SD5600 series Schmitt triggers.
