850nm, 10mW, Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) diode in surface mount (SMD) package with collimating lens designed for use in sensing applications.
VC35A-850C10A-L
Description
The Lasermate VC35A-850C10A-L is a surface-mount 850nm Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser (VCSEL) diode designed for continuous-wave (CW) operation with an optical output power of 10mW. This model includes an integrated collimating lens, producing a beam divergence of less than 12mrad, ideal for precision sensing and alignment-critical applications. Packaged in a compact SMD format, the diode offers single longitudinal mode operation, low threshold current, and high thermal and electrical reliability. It is optimized for proximity sensing, range finding, active optical cables, consumer electronics, and medical diagnostics.
