Group, I'm trying to ferret out answers while not having the associated standards in my possession (common problem for many of us). I need the answer quickly and I'm hoping the one of our list members has experience with this question.
A Vishay IR Diode is used to communicate with remote devices. Vishay data indicates that the diode in question meets the IEC 60825-1 Class 1 limits "at absolute maximum ratings and using the Simplified Method". That is all well and good. Now the question for this EN 60950-1 device is this: Is that specification adequate for CE Marking compliance or does the diode still need to be subjected to an EN 60825-1 and -12 investigation in the end-user device in addition to the EN 60950-1 investigation? As always - thanks very much in advance.
