Ask AI about this product

This IR reflective sensor utilizes a TCRT5000 to detect color and distance. It emits IR and then detects if it receives the echo. This sensor is often used in line following robots, auto data logging on utility meters, because this module can sense if a surface is white or black.

The measuring distance range from 1mm to 8mm, and the focalĀ point is about 2.5mm. There is also an on-board potentiometer to adjust the sensitivity.

The infrared diode will emit the infrared continuously when the module is powered on, when the emitted infrared light has not been reflected or the strength is not big enough,the moduleĀ staysĀ inĀ OFFĀ state, andĀ D0 output logic stays HIGH and LED stays OFF.

  • Using infrared reflective sensor TCRT5000
  • Detection of reflection distance: 1mm toĀ 8mm
  • Adjustable sensitivity using potentiometer
  • OperatingĀ Voltage: 3.3V - 5V
  • Output: Digital

How does this sensor detect a line or surface?
It emits infrared light and detects reflected light to sense surface reflectivity. The module provides a digital D0 output that changes with reflection.
What voltage does it require and what kind of output does it provide?
It operates from 3.3V to 5V and outputs a digital D0 signal.
How do I adjust the sensitivity?
Use the on-board potentiometer with a small screwdriver to adjust the sensitivity.
What are common uses for this sensor?
It is commonly used in line following robots and for auto data logging on utility meters to detect surface color differences.
What are the key sensing specifications?
The sensing distance is 1 mm to 8 mm with a focal point around 2.5 mm. The infrared diode emits continuously when powered and the on-board LED indicates reflection.
