Availability confirmed at enquiry This family is supplied to order rather than held on the shelf — send us the specification and the annual volume and we will confirm stock, tooling and lead time before you commit.
Addressable-emitter VCSELs from a single 5 mW emitter up to a 1273-emitter array delivering 6 W. TO56 and TO9 packages, low threshold current, circular low-divergence beam — the natural emitter for dToF, structured light and IR illumination.
- 1 to 1273 emitters on a single die
- Low threshold current from 0.9 mA
- Circular beam, 18–21° divergence
- TO56 and TO9/TO56 packages
- Dual-wavelength 660 + 850 nm part available
Configurations
Expand a group to see the model table. All powers are peak pulse power at 25 °C unless the table states otherwise.
905 nm pulsed VCSEL-MV
Pulsed operation for time-of-flight LiDAR and robot vacuum obstacle avoidance.
| Model | Peak power | Emitters | Threshold current | Operating voltage | Divergence | Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PLD905-4W-MV | 4.5 W | 1 | 20 mA | 20 V | 18° | Robot vacuum LiDAR, obstacle-avoidance modules |
| PLD905-10W-MV | 10 W | 7 | 2 A | 18 V | 18.5° | Robot vacuum LiDAR, obstacle-avoidance modules |
| PLD905-70W-MV | 70 W | 56 | 0.25 A | 21 V | 20° | LiDAR and laser rangefinding |
850 nm quasi-CW VCSEL-MV
Infrared illumination and 3D sensing. 850 nm is the best match for silicon detector responsivity.
| Model | Power | Emitters | Threshold current | Operating voltage | Divergence | Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PLD850-5mW-MV | 5 mW | 1 | 1.3 mA | 2.2 V | 20° | IR illumination, laser lighting |
| PLD850-100mW-MV | 100 mW | 23 | 25 mA | 2.1 V | 20° | IR illumination, laser lighting |
| PLD850-500mW-MV | 500 mW | 95 | 120 mA | 2.1 V | 20° | IR illumination, laser lighting |
| PLD850-1W-MV | 1 W | 201 | 250 mA | 2.2 V | 21° | IR illumination (TO9 / TO56) |
| PLD850-1.5W-MV | 1.5 W | 280 | 340 mA | 2.2 V | 21° | IR illumination (TO9 / TO56) |
| PLD850-2W-MV | 2 W | 400 | 550 mA | 2.2 V | 21° | IR illumination (TO9 / TO56) |
| PLD850-3W-MV | 3 W | 624 | 680 mA | 2.3 V | 21° | IR illumination (TO9 / TO56) |
940 nm quasi-CW VCSEL-MV
The consumer choice — invisible to the eye at higher irradiance than 850 nm, and the emitter used in most phone and tablet depth sensors.
| Model | Power | Emitters | Threshold current | Operating voltage | Divergence | Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PLD940-5mW-MV | 5 mW | 1 | 0.9 mA | 1.9 V | 21° | IR illumination, laser lighting |
| PLD940-100mW-MV | 100 mW | 23 | 20 mA | 2.0 V | 21° | IR illumination, laser lighting |
| PLD940-500mW-MV | 500 mW | 95 | 85 mA | 2.0 V | 21° | IR illumination, laser lighting |
| PLD940-1W-MV | 1 W | 201 | 200 mA | 2.1 V | 21° | IR illumination (TO9 / TO56) |
| PLD940-1.5W-MV | 1.5 W | 280 | 250 mA | 2.1 V | 21° | IR illumination (TO9 / TO56) |
| PLD940-2W-MV | 2 W | 400 | 400 mA | 2.1 V | 21° | IR illumination (TO9 / TO56) |
| PLD940-3W-MV | 3 W | 624 | 600 mA | 2.1 V | 21° | IR illumination (TO9 / TO56) |
| PLD940-6W-MV | 6 W | 1273 | 1200 mA | 2.2 V | 19° | Highest-power array in the range |
Dual wavelength-MV
Two wavelengths from one package for applications that need a visible aiming beam alongside an IR illumination beam.
| Model | Power | Emitters | Threshold current | Operating voltage | Divergence | Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PLD660/850-10/100mW-MV | 10 mW + 100 mW | 11 | 25 mA | 2.1 V | 20° | Dual-wavelength IR illumination with visible aiming beam |
