Vishay VCNT2030 Reflective Sensor (VCSEL+PT)
Vishay VCNT2030 Reflective Sensor (VCSEL+PT) offers a compact construction, allowing the emitting light source and the detector to be arranged in the same plane. The emitter utilizes a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) chip technology with high radiant intensity, optical power, and speed. The device provides an operating infrared wavelength of 940nm. The detector contains a silicon phototransistor. The Vishay VCNT2030 sensor’s analog output signal at the phototransistor depends on the amount of light emitted by the VCSEL and reflected by an object in the sensor’s field of view.
