ITR9608-Photo Sensor

Introduction

The ITR9608 (Slot Optical Switch) is a gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode which is coupled with a silicon photo transistor in a plastic housing. The packaging system is designed to opt imizes the mechanical resolution, coupling efficiency, and insulates ambient light. The slot in the housing a provides a means of inte rrupting the signal with printer, scanner, copier, or other opaque material, switching the output from an”ON" to”OFF"state .

Features

• Wide gap between light emitter and detector (5.0mm)
• High sensing accuracy
• PWB mounting type package

Applications

• Copier
• Printer
• Facsimile
• Ticket vending machine
• Opto-electronic switch
• Motor speed detection
• Pulse counter
