Optical Sensors - Photointerrupters - Slot Type - Logic OutputOptical Sensors, also known as Photointerrupters or Slot type sensors, are specifically designed to detect the presence of an object in its range of vision. These sensors are most commonly used in the automotive, industrial, and medical industries. The OPB472N11 is a type of Photointerrupters and is commonly used in these industries due to its robust design and reliable sensing capabilities. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the OPB472N11.Application FieldThe OPB472N11 is most commonly used in the automotive, industrial, and medical industries, as stated before. When used in the automotive industry, these sensors are used to detect the presence of objects. This is typically used to detect parts that are manufactured on the production line, or to detect the presence of objects in a vehicle. The sensors are also frequently used in automation systems, as they can be used to precisely locate and track an object in a certain position. Additionally, medical applications are also becoming increasingly popular as the OPB472N11 sensors provide reliable accuracy when detecting the presence of objects.Working PrincipleThe OPB472N11 works by using infrared light to detect the presence of an object. The infrared light is emitted from the emitting diode (ED) located on the optical sensor. When an object enters the range of the ED, the reflected light enters the sensors’ receiver. This causes a voltage drop that is detected by the optical sensor. The optical sensor then sends a digital signal to the controller, which will process the data. This signal is sent whenever an object crosses the detected area of the ED.The OPB472N11 is equipped with a logic output of either normally high (H) or normally low (L) levels. This means that the digital output will change from the logic high or low level, depending on whether an object is detected or not. The logic output also makes it easier for the user to connect the sensor to a controller, as the logic output enables it to be directly interfaced with a logic circuit.ConclusionThe OPB472N11 is a type of optical sensor that is designed to detect the presence of an object in its range of vision. Its robust design and reliable sensing capabilities make it the perfect choice for applications in the automotive, industrial, and medical industries. Additionally, its logic output is extremely useful as it allows for a quick and easy connection to an external controller.
