Blue, green, and red LEDs; these can be combined to produce most perceptible colors,
including white. Infrared and ultraviolet (UVA) LEDs are also available.

Introduction
4.4.2 Uses
The infrared LED emitter is a high power (150 mW) infrared LED that is
commonly used in a wide variety of remote control and communications projects. It's
wide 60 degree beam width and high output power make it a great infrared
transmitter. Combined with the PNA4602M IR receiver and you have the makings for
a solid IR communications or control link (See the related products section for the
PNA4602).
4.5.2 Specifications
An infrared emitter is an LED made from gallium arsenide, which emits near-
infrared energy at about 880nm. The infrared phototransistor acts as a transistor with
the base voltage determined by the amount of light hitting the transistor. Hence it acts
as a variable current source. Greater amount of IR light cause greater currents to flow
through the collector-emitter leads.
