Engineering Selection Recommendations

The OPB980P55 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. All listed substitute parts are active and ROHS3 compliant, making them suitable for new designs and applications requiring regulatory compliance.

For direct replacement in existing designs, OPB980P55Z provides the closest match as a direct variant with identical electrical and mechanical specifications and active product status.

For applications requiring maximum inventory availability, OPB980L55Z offers the highest stock level (20,399 units) while maintaining all specified parameters.

All substitute parts maintain identical sensing distance, sensing method, output configuration, supply current, supply voltage, response time, operating temperature range, and package type as the original OPB980P55.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can OPB980P55Z directly replace OPB980P55 in existing circuits?

A: Yes. OPB980P55Z maintains identical electrical specifications (15 mA supply current, 4.75V ~ 5.25V supply voltage, 70ns response time), mechanical configuration (0.125" sensing distance, through-beam sensing method, totem pole buffer output, chassis mount), and package type (module with wire leads). The primary difference is product status and RoHS compliance.

Q: What distinguishes the different OPB980 variants (P11Z, P51Z, L11Z, L51Z, L55Z, T11Z)?

A: All OPB980 variants listed maintain identical electrical and mechanical parameters specified for the OPB980P55. Differences in part number suffixes reflect internal design variations or packaging configurations not detailed in the provided specifications. All are functionally equivalent for the stated parameters.

Q: Are OPB930W51Z and OPB940W55Z compatible substitutes?

A: Yes. OPB930W51Z and OPB940W55Z maintain all critical parameters: 0.125" sensing distance, through-beam sensing method, totem pole buffer output, 15 mA supply current, 4.75V ~ 5.25V supply voltage, 70ns response time, -40°C ~ 70°C operating temperature, and module wire lead packaging. These parts are functionally equivalent to OPB980P55.
