H21Ax, H22Ax
DESCRIPTION
The H21Ax and H22Ax series of opaque
photointerrupters are single channel switches
consisting of a Gallium Arsenide infrared emitting diode
and a NPN silicon photo transistor mounted in a
polycarbonate housing. The package is designed to
optimise the mechanical resolution, coupling efficiency,
ambient light rejection, cost and reliability.
Operating on the principle that objects opaque to
infrared will interrupt the transmission of light between
the infrared emitting diode and the photo sensor,
switching the output from an "ON" state to an "OFF"
state.
These photoinerrupters are in PWB mounting packages
while H21Ax also provides flanges for Screw Mounting.
