The TLP1215(C1) and TLP1215(C7) are digital output photointerrupters designed for applications such as copiers, laser printers, facsimiles, and vending machines. They provide a high‑level output when the infrared beam is blocked and are suitable for harsh temperature conditions.
Key specifications include a 5 V supply voltage, 16 mA low‑level output current, slit width of 0.6 mm, and an operating temperature range of –25 °C to 90 °C. The devices use a snap‑in mounting style and can be mounted on boards of 1.0 mm or 1.2 mm thickness. Recommended connectors are the Ultrex (C1) and TXL‑P series (C7).
