Optical sensors are devices that detect the presence or absence of a light source in a particular area. They are often used to detect a change in a light source, such as the intensity of sunlight, the presence of a laser, or the break of an infrared signal. Photointerrupters are a type of optical sensors that detect changes in light sources by interrupting the light itself through a light-sensitive device. A special type of photointerrupters, known as slot type photointerrupters, are designed to detect the presence or absence of an object across a slot. The working principle of slot type photointerrupters requires the use of a slot, which is created by two separate pieces of material that are either adjacent or separated by a gap. A light source is placed on one side of the slot and a detector is placed on the other side. The light source and the detector can be either optical or electrical. When an object passes through the slot, it acts as an optical barrier, interrupting the transmission of light. This interruption is detected by the detector, which is then used to output a signal, indicating the presence or absence of the object.One example of a slot type photointerrupter is the OPB100-EZ, which is designed to detect the presence of an object using a pair of IREDs (infrared emitting diodes) and two phototransistors. The IREDs emit a pulsed infrared light in parallel that passes through the slot between the two phototransistors, creating an optical barrier when an object passes through. The phototransistors will detect changes in this light source, indicating the presence or absence of an object. The OPB100-EZ is designed to output a signal, either high or low, depending on the presence or absence of an object.The OPB100-EZ is designed to be reliable, and its MELF (Miniature Emitter and Detector Lens) package ensures that it will work in extreme temperatures and other harsh environmental conditions. Its MELF package also helps reduce the size of the sensor, making it ideal for applications where space is at a premium. The OPB100-EZ is also designed to be user-friendly, and it is designed with a wide range of specifications to meet the needs of diverse applications. It has two adjustable potentiometers, one for adjusting the sensitivity of the IREDs and another for adjusting the sensitivity of the phototransistors. This allows the user to adjust the sensor to their specific application needs.In addition to its wide range of features and specifications, the OPB100-EZ also offers a number of advantages over other slot type photointerrupters. Its MELF package allows for increased packaging density and improved surge protection. Additionally, the OPB100-EZ is designed with a number of safety features such as a built-in delay circuit, which helps to protect against accidental start-up current. It also has an ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection and a low current consumption, which helps to reduce power consumption and extend the life of the sensor.The OPB100-EZ is ideal for a variety of applications, including security, industrial automation, automotive, medical, and more. It can be used to detect the presence of objects in tight spaces or at longer distances, depending on the application. It is also suitable for applications where fast response times and low power consumption are important. The OPB100-EZ is a versatile optical sensor that is designed to provide reliable detection in almost any environment.
