Notes:
1. Derate linearly as shown in Figure 4.
2. For long term performance with minimal light output degradation, drive currents
between 10 mA and 30 mA are recommended. For more information on recommended
drive conditions, please refer to Application Brief I-024 (5966-3087E).
3. Operating at currents below 1 mA is not recommended. Please contact your local
representative for further information.

Note:
1. The radiant intensity, Ie, in watts per steradian, may be found from the equation Ie = Iv/ ηv, where Iv is the luminous intensity in candelas and ηv is
the luminous efficacy in lumens/ watt.
