Solid, sensitive solutions. Optoelectronics integrates optical
principles and semi-conductor electronics — the inter-conversion
of electricity to light. In electronic systems where feedback and
control systems are common, these infrared sensors are often
critical.
Honeywell Sensing and Control (S&C) offers a broad selection of
often reliable, cost-effective, off-the-shelf optoelectronic sensor
solutions for many potential applications — including printers and
copiers, metering and data storage systems, liquid-level sensing,
motion control, scanning, automated transactions, barcode
readers, drop sensors, and other medical equipment. We also
provide a wide array of custom solutions ranging from special
electrical selections, special markings, wiring, and connectors to
completely unique housings or integrated circuits.

Reective
Sensors
Reective
Sensors
Often reliable, cost-effective
performance.
Often ideal for object presence,
motion and limit sensing,
position encoding, movement
detection, and counting, the
Honeywell S&C infrared sensor
line consists of reective and
transmissive sensors, detectors,
emitters, and encoders.
Reective: An infrared emitter
and phototransistors or
photodarlingtons are encased
side-by-side. Detector responds
to radiation from the infrared
emitter when a reective object
passes.
Transmissive: Through a eld
of view, an infrared emitter and a
photosensor are mounted facing
each other when an opaque
object passes through the slot,
interrupting the infrared path,
it is detected. These metal or
plastic products offer a variety
of electro-optical characteristics
and package styles.
Detectors: Available in a
number of different plastic,
metal, and ceramic packages,
with a wide variety of electro-
optical characteristics. Can
sense light over broad spectrum
from low visible through near
infrared wavelengths. Analog
detectors are available in
photodiodes, phototransistors,
and photodarlingtons. Digital
Optoschmitt detectors are also
available.
Emitters: Available in a variety
of packages to compliment
the Honeywell detector family.
Available in transfer-molded
plastic packages, as well as
ceramic surface mount or metal
packages in various styles. Two
basic chip types are used: GaAs
and AlGaAs.
Encoders: Sensing speed and
direction or mechanical
motion, these PC-mount, plastic
products are typically used in
conjunction with an encoder
disk or linear encoder strip. As
the interruptive pattern moves,
the sensor provides data for
processing.

• Glass-lensed optics for efcient optical
coupling • Upright or inverted mounting
capability • Low prole, small size for
exible layout of multiple channels
and custom arrays • Compatible with
automated solder processes • Choice of
photodiode or phototransistor detectors
• Infrared emitter features high power
dissipation capability • Tape and reel
packaging option (pick and place
machine compatible)
Benets: Lens minimizes cross-talk and
often eliminates the need for apertures
in non-critical applications. Low prole
components may be mounted on
the printed circuit board, lens up or
inverted, allowing exibility in layouts
for multiple channel and custom arrays.
Phototransistor’s gain characteristics often
make it useful for potential applications
requiring high responsivity. Potential
applications include optical encoders
for motion control, computer peripherals,
vending and point-of-sale applications,
smoke detectors, and medical equipment.
ENCODER DETECTORS

Features: Side-looking plastic package
• TTL/LSTTL/CMOS compatible • Senses
speed and direction of mechanical motion
• Inverting logic output • Linear or rotary
encoder applications • Resolution to
0,229 mm [0.009 in] • Sensitivity versus
temperature compensation • Mechanically
and spectrally matched to SEP8506 and
SEP8706 infrared emitters
Benets: Monolithic IC, consisting of two
narrow adjacent photodiodes, ampliers,
and Schmitt trigger output stages.
Outputs are NPN collectors with internal
10 kOhm (nominal) pull-up resistors to
Vcc which can directly drive TTL loads.
Circuitry compensates the sensitivity for
the output power versus temperature
characteristics of an infrared emitter. IC is
encapsulated in a molded, unlensed black
