Key Features
- This IR emitter LED produces infrared light at ~940 nm — which is commonly used in remote-controls, IR sensors, proximity detection, line-following robots, and camera-visibility systems.
- 3 mm diameter package makes it straightforward to mount on standard PCBs or breadboards; simple two-lead (anode/cathode) interface.
- Low forward voltage drop and moderate current requirement make it easy to drive from microcontroller GPIO (with proper current-limiting resistor). Suitable for DIY electronics, robotics, and automation projects.
Applications
Use this LED as the transmitting element in IR link systems, reflective optical sensors, remote-control systems, and robot vision tasks. Works well paired with IR receivers or photodiodes to build detection circuits.
