Description
The OP508F series consists of NPN silicon phototransistor molded in flat, black plastic, "end looking" packages. The flat sensing surface allows an acceptance half angle 60° measured from the optical axis to the half power point. The black plastic package significantly reduces ambient light noise.

Features
• Flat lensed for wide acceptance angle
• Easily stackable on 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) hole centers
• Low cost plastic package
• Mechanically and spectrally matched to the OP168F and OP268F series of infrared emitting diodes
