Opto Diode Corporation, a division of ITW, is a global supplier of high-performance, standard and custom photodetectors and reliable, high quality, custom and standard infrared (IR) LEDs and visible LEDs. With the recent acquisition of International Radiation Detectors, the company also designs and manufactures semiconductor radiation devices that detect photons in the visible, UV and extreme UV ranges, X-rays, and other high energy particles. Their domestic U. S. manufacturing plant in Newbury Park, CA, includes an in-house wafer fab and ensures delivery of volume quantities at competitive prices with short lead times. Opto Diode's rigorous quality control standards meet their customer's strictest requirements in a variety of industries, including medical, biotechnology, medical imaging, medical diagnostics, military, defense, R&D, aerospace, transportation, entertainment, test & measurement, industrial, lighting, and more.

The ITW Photonics Group was created to bring together and build on the technical expertise of individual companies that specialize in photonics technology and span the full spectrum of wavelengths. The group consists of: Lumex - LED and LCD technology; Cal Sensors - IR Detector and Emitter technology; and, Opto Diode Corp - LED, Silicon Photodiodes and Electro-Optical Assembly technology.

The synergy of these three industry front-runners provides an unsurpassed range of photonic capabilities within a broad spectrum of markets, including medical, military and industrial controls. The ITW Photonics Group provides integrated solutions that encompass the technology and experience from all three business units, offering design engineers higher performance with greater feature enhancements.
