New Yorker Electronics broadens Optoelectronics Line with Vishay High-Power Infrared Emitters

NORTHVALE, New Jersey, USA - New Yorker Electronics has broadened its optoelectronics portfolio with the release of six new high-power infrared (IR) emitters in a 3.4mm x 3.4mm 3-SMD, no lead surface-mount package. These new Vishay IR emitters are available in wavelengths of 850 and 960nm and in heights varying from 1.8 to 2.9mm.

Built on Vishay’s SurfLight™ surface emitter chip technology, the new Vishay Semiconductors VSMA1085400 (2.9mm), VSMA1085250 (2.45mm), VSMA1085600 (1.8mm), VSMA1094400 (2.9mm), VSMA1094250 (2.45mm), and VSMA1094600 (1.8mm) are infrared, 850nm emitting diodes that feature a double stack emitter chip for highest radiant power. The 42mil chip size allows for 1.5A DC operation and supports pulsed currents up to 5.0A.

The series has a J-STD-020-rated floor life of 168h and an ESD up to 5 kV according to ANSI / ESDA / JEDEC® JS-001). The Vishay VMSA was also designed with a low thermal resistance (6 K/W < RthJSP < 9 K/W) and an angle of half intensity at ± 40°.

Applications for this line of Vishay Infrared Emitters include driver and occupant monitoring, eye tracking and safety and security such as CCTV. Supporting lead (Pb)-free reflow soldering, the devices are RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green.

As a longtime franchised distributor for Vishay, New Yorker Electronics supplies Vishay Optoelectronics Optocouplers, Optical Sensors, 7-Segment Displays, Infrared Receivers, Solid-State Relays, LCD Displays, Visible LEDs, Infrared Emitters, Plasma Displays, Photo Detectors, IrDA Transceivers and Infrared Touch Panels.
