OPB680-20 Slotted Optical Flag Switch Types

The OPB680 consists of an NPN phototransistor and an infrared emitting diode in a molded plastic housing. The phototransistor has an enhanced low current roll-off which improves contrast ratio and immunity to background irradiance. A lever arm actuated flag interrupts the light beam, switching the output between states that can readily drive logic gates. The.

Features

• Phototransistor output
• Mechanical switch replacement
• Printed circuit board mounting
• Enhanced signal to noise ratio
• Lever force options Description The OPB680 consists of an NPN phototransistor and an infrared emitting diode in a molded plastic housing. The phototransistor has an enhanced low current roll-off which improves contrast ratio and immunity to background irradiance. A lever arm actuated flag interrupts the light beam, switching the output between states that can readily drive logic gates. The lever can be actuated by a passing paper sheet without damaging the paper edge. Th.
