SnapEDA releases new optoelectronic products

1 min read

SnapEDA, a leading electronics design library, is collaborating with Osram Opto Semiconductors, in an agreement that will allow engineers to quickly integrate Osram’s components in their designs.

Osram is releasing its entire collection of photodiodes, phototransistors, laser diodes and infrared emitters on SnapEDA’s website.

Traditionally, engineers have spent days creating digital models for each component in their designs. With this new collaboration, engineers can now simply drag-and-drop Osram components into their designs. SnapEDA is used by over one million professional engineers.

Osram’s components include LEDs, Infrared LEDs (IREDs), laser diodes, photodiodes and phototransistors, which are an integral part of everything from automotive lighting, industrial electronics, mobile electronics and general lighting.

The models can be downloaded for free from SnapEDA’s electronics design library, as well as from websites of Osram’s franchised distributors that support SnapEDA models.

Among Osram products that will be featured on SnapEDA are:

  • The Synios P 2720 series, which combines the advantages of high-power infrared illumination LED technology with extremely compact packaging
  • The IR Oslon Black family, which features a small package with integrated lens, allowing for high-power density
  • The IR Topled D5140 portfolio, which reinvents the traditional DIL large-area Si PIN photodiode in a more compact and reliable package

Supported electronic design formats include Cadence OrCAD, Allegro, Altium, Eagle, KiCad, PCB123, Proteus, and Mentor Graphics PADS. The PCB footprints have been created based on Osram’s recommended land patterns or IPC-7351B standards when applicable.
