GP2Y0D340K

The GP2Y0D340K from Sharp is a distance measuring sensor unit. This unit is composed of an integrated combination of PSD(position sensitive detector), IRED (infrared emitting diode) and signal processing circuit. The variety of the reflectivity of the object, environmental temperature and the operating duration are not influenced easily to the distance detection because of adopting the triangulation method. The output voltage of this sensor stays high in case an object exists in the specified distance range. So this sensor can also be used as proximity sensor. Typical applications include touch-less switch, sensor for energy saving and amusement equipment.

• Detecting distance is typically 400mm
• Digital output type
• 15mm x 9.6mm x 8.7mm package size
• Current consumption is typically 31mA
• Supply voltage range from 4.5V to 5.5V
• High speed measurement cycle of 8ms

Applications

Industrial, Consumer Electronics, Portable Devices, Sensing & Instrumentation, Robotics

Notes

In order to stabilize power supply line, recommended to use a bypass capacitor of 47µF or more between VCC and GND.
