KY-033 TCRT5000 reflective infrared sensor

TCRT5000 reflective infrared sensor with a potentiometer for calibration is a reflection optocoupler that can detect objects nearby or lines in “Line Follower” robots; it also works well for detecting the edges of a board or table for small circular robots.

The module includes a comparator, thanks to which the use of the sensor is limited to reading the output status, which informs about the sensor status. The built-in potentiometer allows you to tune the sensor to work in a given application – adjusting the moment of changing the output state.

Specifications:

• Model: KY-033
• Digital output
• Detection distance: 1mm – 8mm
• LM393 comparator

• Supply voltage: 3.3 to 5 V
• Operating temperature: 10 – 30 C
• Dimensions: 32 mm x 14 mm

Package includes KY-033 TCRT5000 reflective infrared sensor with a potentiometer.
