Toshiba TLP1031A Photointerrupter Datasheet

TLP1031A is a high-withstanding-voltage photo-interrupter for digital output. It is suitable for domestic electrical appliances, office equipment, trackballs, and position detectors. The device combines a high-optical-output GaAs infrared LED with a high-sensitivity, high-gain Si photo-IC. The photo-IC supports a wide range of systems (3.3 V to 12 V), enabling the device to consume less power than conventional devices. The device also features a narrow slit width and high resolution.
