The GP1A173LCS5F is an optoelectronic part specifically designed for implementation in automated systems. The available functions of this component provide the highest degree of field compatibility with integrated and portable electronics. The GP1A173LCS5F offers a wide range of features including a low working voltage, a fast response time, and the ability to work in the presence of polarized detectors. It is designed for use in a variety of applications including those commonly used in industrial automation, robotics, and home automation.

The GP1A173LCS5F belongs to the class of optical sensors known as photointerrupters, slot type units with a logic output. Specifically, it is an infrared (IR) device which is meant to detect obstacles in a predetermined area. Every time an obstacle passes through the photointerrupter it is detected and a current is momentarily interrupted.

The GP1A173LCS5F consists of an NPN tran-sistor and an IR emission (diode) and IR detection (phototransistor) element encapsulated in a molded plastic casing having a slit-type shielding structure. The slit divides the emission and detection portions of the optoelectric system. When an object interrupts the light beam, the system’s trip point is activated and the output state is changed.

The primary application field for the GP1A173LCS5F is in position sensing. It can be used to detect the presence of an obstacle in a system and provide a suitable output for relocation of the object. It is also suitable for other applications like controlling a conveyor, or as a proximity-sensing switch in automation. Depending upon the specific requirements, this model can be set to react to any size or shape of obstacle.

The personal nature of the GP1A173LCS5F can be used for a variety of home or industry uses specifically involved in automation of tasks. As a photointerrupter, the optoelectronic device responds to an interruption in the light beam which triggers the output of the device. Since it can be set to respond to any size or shaped object, it can be used to ensure safe operations during automated actions such as controlling machinery, and can be used to monitor and control elevators and fans, and other items in the home.

The primary working principle of the GP1A173LCS5F is a simple interruption of the light beam between the NPN function and the IR diode with an IR phototransistor. The signal is generated from the interruption of an object passing between the Emitter (IR LED) and the Receiver (Phototransistor). The sensor will have an output change when it detects an object. This change depends upon the specified parameters (trip point) chosen.

The internal circuitry of the GP1A173LCS5F comprises of the transistor and the IR illumination elements mounted in a molded plastic casing providing the shielding structure. The optoelectronic part also contains a slit type shielding structure that divides the detector and the emitter regions. This slit acts as a guard against external light interference and the device typically operates on a low voltage power supply of 5V DC. The GP1A173LCS5F has a response time of just 0.1 milliseconds.

The GP1A173LCS5F is widely applicable in various industries and applications such as safety systems, office equipment, automotive equipment, machine vision, and home security systems. With its wide range of functions, it is capable of meeting the varied needs of these applications. Its high-speed response time, low power consumption, and ability to withstand various environmental conditions make it an ideal part for many industries.
