My boss told me I need to lighten up. That couldn’t have about my attitude. It must have been about the circuit I was designing, so I added an indicator LED for everything I could think of, and the best way to get those from the board to the panel is with the Dialight 515 Series configurable height and length Optopipe Light Pipes. These light pipes come standard in lengths from 0.319'' to 1.772'' long and 0.200'' to 0.500'' high and are also customizable withing those ranges, providing you with design flexibility and a highly efficient mode of light transportation. These light pipes provide a high level of ESD protection while also eliminating light bleed and cross talk between adjacent light pipes. With an operating temperature range from -40°C to +100°C, these light pipes can be used in many industries, including automation control, data storage, EV charging, networking, and telecoms. Thanks to their simplified design and RoHS compliance, the configurable 515 Series really are the ‘light’ option for you.
