MikroElektronika Opto Encoder 6 Click Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor Sensor Add-On Board for Sensor Sensors

The MikroElektronika Opto Encoder 6 Click is a compact add-on board for precise motion and position detection. This board features the a transmissive photo interrupter from King bright, ensuring high sensitivity and reliable performance. This slotted optical switch detects object movement by interrupting the light beam, with a visible light cut-off design to minimize ambient light interference. Additionally, it integrates the MAX40200 from Analog Devices, which enables or disables the photo interrupter through the EN pin, optimizing power efficiency and operational flexibility, and a Click Snap feature for flexible implementation. The output signal is accessible via the OUT pin, allowing its integration into various control and monitoring systems. Opto Encoder 6 Click is ideal for applications like motor speed monitoring, position tracking in automation systems, and other industrial and consumer electronics requiring precise motion sensing.
