Description: This small digital distance sensor detects objects between 2 and 10 cm (0.8" and 4") away. With its quick response time, small size, and low current draw, this sensor is a good choice for non-contact object detection.The output, Vo, is driven low when the sensor detects an object; otherwise, the output is high.
The GP2Y0D810Z0F detects objects between 2 cm and 10.25 cm away. There are a few millimeters of hysteresis around the maximum range threshold and no hysteresis at the minimum range threshold.
Note:
- This sensors will only tell you if there is an object within the detection range along their lines of sight; it will not tell you how far away the object is.
- This sensor requires external components and has a non-standard 1.5 mm pitch, which can make it difficult to integrate into projects based on a 0.1" pitch. We recommend buying a carrier board for this sensor that includes these required components and provides a 0.1"-pitch, three-pin interface: ground, power, and digital output.
Some example applications include:
- Break-beam sensor or photogate alternative
- Non-contact bumper or obstacle detector
- A counter or timer of objects as they pass by
