HLC1395
Reflective Sensor
FEATURES • Side-looking plastic package • Phototransistor output • IR emitter and phototransistor detector in a
single package • Low profile for design flexibility • Designed for short distance detection • High sensitivity • Unfocused for sensing diffused surfaces
DESCRIPTION The HLC1395 is a miniature infrared sensor designed to sense reflective objects at short distances. Both the GaAs IRED and the NPN phototransistor are mounted side- by- side in a single black plastic package with an integral barrier to minimize crosstalk. The sensor is configured with the IRED cathode and the phototransistor emitter connected to a common lead.
The housing consists of an opaque polysulfone outer shell with transfer-molded, IR-transmissive epoxy encapsulant.
