TSOP Based Infrared Obstacle Avoidance Proximity Sensor Module

IR Proximity Module Using TSOP

This sensor module consists of a PIN diode and a preamplifier which are embedded into a single package. The output of TSOP is active low and it gives 5V in the off state. When IR waves, from a source, with a center frequency of 38 kHz incident on it, its output goes low. The sensor module light is adaptable to the environment, a working voltage of 3.3 V to 5 V. It has a pair of infrared transmitting and receiving tubes.

Applications:

1. Obstacle Detection
2. Industrial safety devices
3. Wheel encoder
