Introduction :
IR Reflective Sensor (TCRT5000) is a reflective sensorswhich include an infrared emitter and phototransistor in aleaded package which blocks visible light. The packageincludes two mounting clips.
The operating wavelength is 950 mm.
Features :
- IR sensor with transistor output
- Operating Voltage: 5V
- Diode forward Current: 60mA
- Output: Analog or digital data
- Transistor collector current: 100mA (maximum)
Applications :
- Position sensor for shaft encoder
- Detection of reflective material such as paper, IBM cards,magnetic tapes
- • Limit switch for mechanical motions in VCR.
- General purpose - wherever the space is limited
- Object detection.
