1 Disclaimers
1.1 Eye Safety
CAUTION
Do not stare at operating LEDs.
NOTE: This evaluation module uses a high-power infrared LED from OSRAM (part number SFH
4550). Note from the LED manufacturer: “Depending on the mode of operation, these
devices emit highly concentrated non visible infrared light which can be hazardous to the
human eye. Products which incorporate these devices have to follow the safety precautions
given in IEC 60825-1 and IEC 62471.”
WARNING
When choosing an LED component, the end user must consult the
LED data sheet supplied by the LED manufacturer to identify the
EN62471 Risk Group Rating and review any potential eye hazards
associated with the LED chosen. Always consider and implement
the use of effective light filtering and darkening protective eye wear
and be fully aware of surrounding laboratory-type setups when
viewing intense light sources that may be required to minimize or
eliminate such risks in order to avoid accidents related to
temporary blindness.
1.2 REACH
CAUTION
This module includes a crystal component (CSTR4M00G15L99 from Murata
Corp.) that contains > 0.1% of lead titanium zirconium oxide CAS# 12626-81-2
listed in EU REACH as a substance of very high concern. These uses from
