TT Electronics - Optek Technology OP550A Silicon Phototransistor

The OP550 series consists of NPN silicon phototransistors designed for wide-angle reception, ideal for space-constrained applications and PCBoard mounting. These devices feature an external lens in a clear epoxy package, providing even reception over large areas. Suitable for optical switches, interrupt detectors, and non-contact sensing, they are compatible with infrared LEDs emitting at 935 nm. The series includes high-sensitivity models like OP550A, with options for opaque or blue-tinted packages that enhance performance in high ambient light conditions. These phototransistors offer reliable, precise optical sensing for industrial automation and electronic control systems.
