Pb-free
The OVFSQ4C8
is designed with higher forward voltage to maximize brightness and incorporates a low-profile
lens to enhance efficient light distribution. Response time is fast and it consumes less power resulting in low cur-
rent requirements from circuit power supply. Tubular arrays replace neon in outdoor and indoor signs. This square
package allows high-density arrays to form light engines.

Notes:
1. Solder time less than 5 seconds at temperature extreme.
2. Heat sink is adequate if the device is operated at ambient temperature higher than 25C. For long term performance the drive currents
between 10mA and 50mA are recommended. Please contact an Optek sales representative for more information on recommended drive
conditions.
