Notes:

(1) RMA flux is recommended. Duration can be extended to 10 seconds maximum when flow soldering.

(2) For OPB820, derate linearly 1.67 mW/° C above 25° C. For OPB821Z, derate linearly 1.82 mW/° C above 25° C.

(3) Methanol or isopropanol are recommended as cleaning agents. Plastic housing is soluble in chlorinated hydrocarbons and

ketones.
