Infrared LED Bare Die

IR950 — 950nm

MANULED manufactures the IR950 950nm infrared LED bare die in the United States using AlGaAs liquid phase epitaxy (LPE). Engineers use this chip for Covert IR illumination (minimal visible glow), Deep NIR sensing & spectroscopy, Automotive driver monitoring and similar near-infrared (NIR) designs that need a domestic source with ~3-week standard lead times, customizable die sizes (254–1270µm), and datasheet-backed electrical specs.
