ข่าว บริษัท เกี่ยวกับ LED Application Scenarios: 5mm IR LED 940nm Through Hole Emitter for Thermometers, Remotes & Night Vision

See the Invisible: How a 5mm Through-Hole IR LED Powers Everyday Smart Devices

Infrared light is invisible to the human eye, yet it quietly powers some of the smartest products around us. Behind non-contact thermometers, TV remote controls, night-vision cameras and automatic sensors sits a tiny, hard-working component — the 5mm IR LED chip. This 5mm through-hole infrared emitter is built to deliver stable 940nm and 850nm output, making it a reliable choice for a wide range of sensing and imaging applications.

What Makes This 5mm IR Emitter Stand Out

• Dual wavelength options — 940nm for remote controls and 850nm for night-vision / camera illumination.
• High radiant intensity — up to 20 mW/Sr at 20mA for dependable signal reach.
• Low forward voltage — just 1.4–1.7V, keeping power consumption low.
• Wide 120° viewing angle — broad, even infrared coverage.
• Ultra-long lifespan — 50,000 hours, with 99.99% pure gold wire bonding.
• Pb-free & RoHS/Reach compliant — radiationless and environmentally friendly.

Technical Parameters (5mm Dip IR LED, Ta = 25°C)

One Emitter, Many Application Scenarios

• Non-contact infrared thermometers — a precise 940nm emitter for fast, hygienic temperature readings.
• Remote controls — the classic 940nm signal source for TVs, set-top boxes and air conditioners.
• Night-vision & CCTV cameras — 850nm illumination that keeps security footage clear in darkness.
• Optoelectronic switches & position sensors — reliable beam interruption for automation and safety systems.
• Counters, sorters & readers — dependable sensing in card readers, tape and disk drive systems.

A Full Infrared Wavelength Family

Beyond the standard 940nm, this platform covers a broad infrared spectrum — 730nm, 740nm, 780nm, 800nm, 810nm, 830nm, 850nm, 880nm, 890nm, 940nm, 980nm, 990nm, 1000nm, 1050nm, 1100nm, 1550nm and even 2000nm — so you can source almost any IR wavelength from a single trusted supplier.
