Description
The MCE-6E8F-Z01 is a red laser diode typically
powered at 3 to 5 mW and designed for laser
pointer.
The device contains a PIN photo diode to meet the
designs of the automatic-power-control circuit. The
small TO-18 package and lower consumption enable
customers to easily incorporate our laser diodes
into their products.
Handling and Safety Precautions
Anti-static protection, such as ionized air blowers or
grounded wrist straps with a 1 mega series resistor,
should be used at all times when handling laser
diodes. In addition, soldering irons should be well
grounded.
Overheating caused by soldering of the leads of a
laser diode must be prevented. Recommend
soldering iron temperature and maximum exposure
time are below 260
O
C
and 10 seconds.
