Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the QSE213C is determined by matching the following critical parameters:

• Wavelength: 880nm (infrared detection band)
• Viewing Angle: 50° (optical field of view)
• Voltage - Collector Emitter Breakdown: 30 V (maximum voltage rating)
• Current - Dark: 100 nA (leakage current specification)
• Power - Max: 100 mW (thermal dissipation limit)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (PCB assembly method)
• Orientation: Side View (component geometry and lead configuration)
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 100°C (environmental operating range)
• Package / Case: Radial, Side View (physical form factor)

The QSE113 meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters, establishing it as a direct functional equivalent for the obsolete QSE213C.
