Vishay TCRT5000 Reflective Optical Sensor

The TCRT5000 is a reflective optical sensor with a transistor output, featuring an infrared emitter and phototransistor housed in a leaded package that blocks visible light. It operates effectively within a detection range of 0.2 to 15mm for reflective materials such as paper, IBM cards, and magnetic tapes. The sensor includes a daylight blocking filter and uses a 950nm wavelength infrared emitter. It is suitable for sensing and instrumentation applications, with a temperature operating range from -25°C to 85°C and is lead-free solder compatible.
