OPB962P11 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The OPB962P11 is a through-beam optical sensor manufactured by TT Electronics/Optek Technology, part of the Photologic® series. This component is designed for 0.125" (3.18mm) PCB-mounted applications with totem pole inverted output configuration. The OPB962P11 is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent parts that maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications for seamless design substitution.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the OPB962P11 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Sensing Distance: 0.125" (3.18mm)
• Sensing Method: Through-Beam
• Output Configuration: Totem Pole, Inverted
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Current - Supply: 15 mA
• Voltage - Supply: 4.75V ~ 5.25V
• Response Time: 70ns
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 70°C
• Package / Case: PCB Mount
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

All substitute parts listed maintain identical specifications across these parameters. The OPB962 and OPB972 base product families are interchangeable within this specification set. Packaging variants (bulk) and product status (active) distinguish substitutes from the obsolete OPB962P11.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts are manufactured by TT Electronics/Optek Technology and maintain full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH requirements. The primary distinction between substitutes is product status: OPB962P11 is obsolete, while all listed alternatives are active production parts.

For new designs or production continuations, selection from active parts is required. OPB962N51, OPB962N55, OPB962T51, and OPB962T55 maintain the OPB962 base product designation. OPB972L51, OPB972N51, OPB972P51, OPB972T51, and OPB972T55 utilize the OPB972 base product designation. Both base families are electrically and mechanically equivalent within the specified parameter set.

Inventory availability ranges from 692 to 2905 pieces across active substitutes, supporting both prototype and production-volume requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can OPB962P11 be directly replaced with any of the listed substitute parts?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain identical electrical specifications (15 mA supply current, 4.75V–5.25V supply voltage, 70ns response time), mechanical configuration (through-hole PCB mount, 0.125" sensing distance), and output behavior (totem pole inverted). Direct pin-for-pin substitution is supported.

Q: What is the difference between OPB962 and OPB972 base product families?

A: Both families are equivalent within the specified parameter set. The distinction is in the base product designation only. All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Are there packaging differences between substitute parts?

A: The OPB962P11 is specified with no packaging designation. All substitute parts are supplied in bulk packaging. PCB mount configuration remains consistent across all parts.

Q: Do all substitutes meet the same compliance requirements?

A: Yes. All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL rating of 1 (unlimited). ECCN and HTSUS classifications are identical.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for new production?

A: Selection should be based on inventory availability and internal part numbering conventions. OPB962N51, OPB962N55, OPB962T51, and OPB962T55 maintain the OPB962 designation. OPB972L51, OPB972N51, OPB972P51, OPB972T51, and OPB972T55 utilize OPB972 designation. All are functionally equivalent.
