OPT3006: OPT3006 details confirm

Part Number: OPT3006
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OPT3004

Dear Expert

Good day!

Our customer want to confirm the OPT3006 layout issue.

In the EVM module firstly component OPT3006 has been mounted on FPCB and then on PCB.


If I see data sheet of the OPT3006 there is FPCB layout recommendation only. Can we mount the component on PCB directly ? is that possible? do we have both the choices in either way?

BR,

  • Hi Leon,

    OPT3006 mounted on rigid PCB of standard thickness is not a good idea because the cutout will act like a tunnel and performance will not be good. You can see this using our FOV simulator tool on OPT3006 page online. OPT3004 would give best performance on a rigid PCB.

    Best,

    Alex
