IS471FSE Optical Sensor

Optical sensors are increasingly used in a myriad of applications, ranging from surveillance and security to implementation in industrial robots and medical devices. The IS471FSE Optical Sensor, manufactured by OPTEK Technology, is a perfect example of a modern optical sensor. This article seeks to explain the field of application and the working principle of this device.

Field of Application

The IS471FSE Optical Sensor is most commonly used to provide reliable on/off responses in automated assembly lines. The sensor makes use of an internal infrared (IR) LED and a detector to detect the presence of an object. This device is perfect to detect objects without any physical contact and is extremely useful in situations where manual inspection is not possible. The IS471FSE is also used in medical devices such as glucose meters, where it can detect the small amount of glucose present in the patient\'s sample.

The IS471FSE Optical Sensor has the ability to respond quickly and precisely to objects, even in the most adverse conditions such as strong light or darkness and even in the face of minor vibrations or dust. This makes it an ideal sensor for a wide variety of industrial and medical applications. Additionally, the IS471FSE is extremely small and low-energy, making it perfect to be embedded into applications where space is limited.

Working Principle

At the heart of the IS471FSE lies an IR LED and a detector, which are separated by a small, transparent mold-in-air (MIA) wall. When the sensor is turned on, the LED emits an invisible infrared beam which is detected by the detector. The sensor is able to detect changes in the infrared beam, such as an object blocking it, and then sends a signal to the application it is embedded in to inform it about the presence or absence of an object.

The IS471FSE is equipped with a logic output which enables it to transmit either a digital "1" signal or a digital "0" signal. Depending on the application, the digital "1" or "0" signal can then be used to control a machine or trigger an alert. The logic output makes it easy to incorporate the IS471FSE into a wide range of applications, and to control and monitor any changes in the beam.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the IS471FSE Optical Sensor is an extremely versatile sensor that can be used to detect objects without any physical contact, and make it possible to use in various industrial and medical applications. The sensor also offers a logic output which makes it easy to control and monitor changes of the infrared beam. The IS471FSE is ideal for use in small, space limited applications, due to its small size and low energy consumption.
