TCST1030L Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Vishay TCST1030L is a transmissive optical sensor featuring an infrared emitter and phototransistor positioned face-to-face on optical axes. This sensor is housed in a leaded package that effectively blocks visible light, making it suitable for applications requiring detection of objects interrupting an optical beam.

 

Key electrical specifications include a nominal forward current of 60mA and a maximum collector current of 100mA. The device has a maximum output voltage rating of 70V and a reverse breakdown voltage of 6V. Its power dissipation is rated at 250mW, with a DC voltage rating of 1.25V.

 

Operating within a temperature range of -25°C to 85°C, the TCST1030L is designed for through-hole mounting. This sensor is the long lead version, offering flexibility in board placement and assembly. It is a single-circuit device, providing a straightforward solution for optical sensing needs.

 

This component is suitable for various automation and control applications where non-contact detection of presence or absence is required. Its transmissive design allows for precise gap sensing.
