The TCST1300 from Vishay Semiconductors is a transmissive optical sensor designed for applications requiring precise optical switching. It integrates an infrared emitter and a phototransistor, positioned face-to-face within a leaded package that effectively blocks ambient visible light. This configuration is ideal for photo interrupter and encoder functions.
Key specifications include a gap width of 3.1 mm and an aperture width of 0.25 mm. The sensor operates with an emitter wavelength of 950 nm. The phototransistor output provides a typical output current of 0.5 mA under specified test conditions. The device is built to withstand a collector-emitter voltage of up to 70 V and has a maximum power dissipation rating of 150 mW for the detector and 100 mW for the emitter, with a total power dissipation of 250 mW at 25°C ambient temperature.
The operating ambient temperature range is from -55°C to +85°C, and storage temperatures can range from -55°C to +100°C. The component is lead-free soldering released and compliant with RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC and WEEE 2002/96/EC. The package dimensions are 11.9 x 6.3 x 10.8 mm, and it is supplied in a tube packaging format with a standard quantity of 1020 pieces.
This sensor is suitable for various applications including optical switches, photo interrupters, counters, and encoders where reliable detection of objects passing through the gap is required. Its robust design and specified operating parameters make it a dependable choice for industrial and electronic control systems.
