TSOP Infrared Obstacle Avoidance Sensor Module

TSOP IR Obstacle Sensor consists of a TSOP as a receiver and IR LED as a transmitter. TSOP as a receiver provides flexibility of sensing light. The sensor is perfectly suited for Detecting obstacle within line of sight. The Control Circuit Applied for the sensor is based on LM555 Timer IC working. The Analog signal generated from the TSOP is processed by an Inverting Amplifier and then fed to the Timer IC and we get a Digital Output at the output Pin. The Digital output makes it a good device to interface with any device compatible with Digital Signal.

It provides accurate results even in sunlight and is not affected by surrounding light sources.
