Category: Optoelectronic Sensor
Use: Detection of objects or motion
Characteristics: Infrared emitter and phototransistor pair, compact design
Package: Through-hole package
Essence: Reliable object detection
Packaging/Quantity: Bulk packaging, quantity varies
The OPB617 consists of an infrared emitter and a phototransistor housed in a compact through-hole package. When an object is within the detection range, it obstructs the infrared light emitted by the device, causing a change in the phototransistor's conductivity. This change in conductivity is then used to detect the presence or absence of the object.
The OPB617 is widely used in various applications such as: - Object detection in industrial automation - Motion sensing in security systems - Position sensing in robotics
In conclusion, the OPB617 optoelectronic sensor offers reliable object detection with its compact design and high ambient light immunity. While it has a limited operating temperature range, it provides versatile functionality across various application fields. Additionally, alternative models such as the OPB608, OPB620, and TCST2103 offer similar capabilities for different project requirements.
