1. 1064nm 5mW 2835 VCSEL SMD for PCB Integration and NIR Optical Source Development
The 1064nm 5mW 2835 VCSEL SMD is a compact, multi-mode near-infrared laser diode developed for surface-mount PCB assembly and optical-source integration. The device uses a standard 2835 SMD package with transparent silicone encapsulation and provides 4.5mW minimum and 5mW typical optical output at IF = 10mA.
Its 3.5mm × 2.8mm surface-mount footprint, 1064nm center wavelength and reflow-compatible package position this model for compact NIR optical sources, security-monitoring equipment, night-vision systems and customer-specific PCB-level optical assemblies.
This 1064nm VCSEL SMD is intended for:
- SMT and PCB assembly manufacturers
- Optical-source and sensor developers
- Security-monitoring equipment manufacturers
- Night-vision equipment developers
- Remote-control device manufacturers
- Special NIR lighting developers
- Display and backlight engineering teams
- Optical-communication source evaluation
- Compact NIR module integrators
- Laser-component distributors and second-source development teams
As a packaged surface-mount laser component, this product is designed for PCB-level integration using appropriate polarity control, ESD protection, current driving and reflow-soldering procedures. It is not supplied as a completed sensing system, night-vision device or finished optical module.

The 2835 package uses a two-terminal structure with the anode identified as terminal 1 and the cathode identified as terminal 2. PCB land pattern, polarity orientation, solder-paste volume and reflow profile must be checked against the package drawing before production assembly.
The stated 5mW typical optical output is a component-level value measured at IF = 10mA. Final optical output, wavelength, package temperature and reliability depend on the driver, PCB thermal design, reflow process, operating condition, optics and complete system architecture.

3. SMT Assembly, Optical Module and Application Development
SMT Reflow and PCB Integration
The 1064nm 5mW 2835 VCSEL SMD is designed for surface-mount assembly on customer PCBs. Applicable integration directions include:
- Automated pick-and-place assembly
- Reflow-soldered optical-source PCBs
- Compact sensor and transmitter boards
- Multi-emitter PCB layouts
- Flexible-PCB optical assemblies
- Customer-specific driver boards
- Compact NIR source modules
- Prototype and volume SMT production
The component is electrostatic-sensitive and must be handled using suitable ESD controls. PCB polarity, land-pattern dimensions, soldering temperature, package orientation and current-driving conditions must be verified before volume production. The published reflow-soldering rating is 245°C for 10 seconds.
Lens and Optical Module Integration
The packaged VCSEL can support optical companies and module-development teams working on compact 1064nm sources using:
- Collimation-lens assemblies
- Lens-integrated PCB sources
- Diffuser-integrated optical assemblies
- Beam-shaping components
- Protective optical windows
- Compact NIR transmitter modules
- Application-specific optical assemblies
Optical integration should be validated using the actual far-field distribution, 20° typical beam divergence, package position, lens spacing, optical-window geometry and complete mechanical architecture. Beam divergence alone does not define the final spot size, illumination area or received optical signal.
Downstream Application Development
The 1064nm 5mW 2835 VCSEL SMD can support component-level development and engineering evaluation for:
- Security-monitoring optical sources
- Night-vision equipment
- Remote-control devices
- Special near-infrared lighting
- Display and backlight source evaluation
- Optical-communication source evaluation
- Linear optical-source assemblies
- Compact NIR detection systems
- Customer-specific optical modules
These are downstream development directions after the SMD component has been integrated into an appropriate PCB, driver, mechanical structure and optical system. The VCSEL SMD is not a finished security, night-vision, communication or sensing device and does not independently establish system performance, laser-safety classification or regulatory approval.
The finished-device developer must independently validate the operating current, pulse condition, optical output, package temperature, beam distribution, working distance, received signal, laser classification, electrical safety and complete-system requirements.

5. Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ 1. What PCB assembly and reflow conditions are required for the 1064nm 5mW 2835 VCSEL SMD?
The device is supplied in a 3.5mm × 2.8mm × 0.68mm two-terminal SMD package. Terminal 1 is the anode and terminal 2 is the cathode. PCB design and assembly should follow the package outline and recommended land pattern. The published reflow-soldering rating is 245°C for 10 seconds. ESD-controlled handling, polarity confirmation, appropriate solder-paste volume and validation of the complete reflow profile are required before production assembly.
FAQ 2. When should I select the 1064nm 5mW 2835 VCSEL SMD instead of a VCSEL bare die?
The 2835 SMD model is appropriate when the project requires a packaged, surface-mount component for automated PCB assembly. A VCSEL bare die is more suitable when the customer intends to design its own die-attach, wire-bonding, ceramic-submount or custom laser package. The SMD product simplifies PCB integration but still requires a suitable driver, ESD protection, thermal design and optical architecture.
FAQ 3. Can the 1064nm 5mW 2835 VCSEL SMD be evaluated for security monitoring and night-vision equipment?
Yes. The component can support engineering evaluation for security-monitoring optical sources, night-vision equipment, remote-control devices and other compact NIR assemblies. Evaluation should cover the 1064nm wavelength, 5mW typical output, 20° typical beam divergence, PCB temperature, driver condition, lens position, working distance and received optical signal. The SMD component is not a complete night-vision or security system and does not independently determine detection range, optical safety or finished-product performance.
