    Why Does My 1450 nm IR LED Not Illuminate Despite Correct Specifications?

    thnx to your reply by using digital camera and also introducing it to a photodiode has cover the spectral range also datasheet from here http://www.thorlabs.com/thorProduct...umber=LED1450E its from throlaps when i tried 63 the voltage drop increases to 0.9 v so I will go to buy...

    Why Does My 1450 nm IR LED Not Illuminate Despite Correct Specifications?

    Iam using 5 v power supply , I have three of them when testing using 190 ohms or 200 or 220 ohms the voltage drop across led is about 0.8 V , I tried to replace the led with anthor new one same happens that's led me to test it using low resistance

    Why Does My 1450 nm IR LED Not Illuminate Despite Correct Specifications?

    hi , every body here , I really seek a help , I have an Ir led from thorlaps it's wave length 1450 nm , I followed the specs Forward voltage at 20mA is = 1.2 v typical , 1.5 v Max Max DC forward current = 100mA Power dissipation is 120 mW I tried the following resistance 200 ,220 ,190,180...
