HL7859MG
Visible High Power Laser Diode
Description
The HL7859MG is a 0.78
m band GaAlAs laser diode with a multi-quantum well (MQW)structure.
It is suitable as a light source for optical disc memories and various other types of optical equipment.
Hermetic sealing of the small package (
5.6 mm) assures high reliability.
Application
Optical disc memories.
