Infrared Proximity Sensor
Infrared Proximity Sensor
IR-TR-10
This Medium Range Infrared sensor offers simple, user friendly and fast
obstacle detection using infrared; it is non contact detection. The
implementations of modulated IR signal immune the sensor to the
interferences caused by the normal light of a light bulb or the sun
light.
This sensor has a built-in IR LED driver to modulate the IR signal at 38KHz
to match the built-in detector. The modulated IR signal immunes the sensor
from the interferences caused by the normal light of a light bulb or the sun
light. The module will output a HIGH if no object is detected and a LOW if
an object is detected.
E – is a hole to solder and connect the power supply to IR. User may
supply 4V-6V to IR, the typical voltage is 5V.
F – is a hole to solder and connect Ground to IR. User may connect the
GND(-) of IR to the Ground (0V) of the control board.
G – is a hole to solder and connect the output signal from IR. User may
connect the signal pin(s) from IR to an I/O pin of microcontroller which set
to INPUT mode. The output signal of IR is LOW or 0V when an object
detected.
