A 650 nm red laser diode in a brass barrel on a three-pin carrier - drive the S pin high and you get a fine, bright dot. Rated 5 mW at 5V and drawing around 30 mA, it is the transmitter half of a beam-break trip-wire when aimed at a laser receiver module or an LDR, and it works just as well for alignment and pointing jobs. Treat it as a real laser: never look into the beam and never aim it at anyone.
Key features
- 650 nm red laser, 5 mW output
- 5V supply, about 30 mA
- Switched straight from a digital pin
- Pairs with a laser receiver or LDR for trip-wires
- 18.5 x 15 mm board, 3 pins
- Eye hazard - do not look into the beam
