H21A1 Slotted Optical Sensor OPTO Interrupter Sensor

H21A1 is an optical sensor consists of gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode, which is coupled with silicon phototransistor in a plastic housing. the sensor design has features like optimizing the mechanical resolution, coupling efficiency, ambient light rejection, cost, and reliability. The housing has a gap, which provides a means of interrupting signal with an opaque material and switches the output from ON to OFF state.
