The photo-interrupter could be mounted onto a PC board with a current-limiting resistor in series externally with the Infrared Emitting Diode. With this, such input voltage for the emitting diode could share the same voltage level as VCC. With both the infrared light source and the photo diode in a single package, the photo-interrupter employs transmissive technology to sense obstacles existence, acts as on / off switchers or even to sense lowresolution rotary or linear motions. The photointerrupter is specified for operation over -25 °C to +85 ºC temperature range. Regarding the photo-interrupter output, there will always be current output measured but with the external resistor, RL connected as shown in Figure1, analog voltage output could then be obtained. As a basic switcher, the photo-interrupter would have a position detecting characteristics as shown in Figure 2. These characteristic diagrams give the relationship between Relative Light Current, IL and Distance of displacement, d. Note that the slot (obstacle) introduced in between the emitting diode and the photo-diode could applied in two directions. One is of X-axis and another would be of Y-axis.

Vice versa, the photo-interrupter will provide a high logic output without the existence of the slot. Refer to Figure 3. Typically, Rise Time, tr and Fall Time tf will have the same value, 15µs. With special design of the slots, periodic presence and absence could be generated. Such output signal is useful in determining low-resolution (>0.5mm pitch) motor rotation positioning and motor spinning speed. 50 0 Input -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 t Distance d (mm) 90 % 10 % Output t tr X-Direction tf Figure 3: Response Time Measurement of Output Signal.
