Sharp GP2D02 IR Ranger

More Details:

This product is no longer available. It has been discontinued from our product offerings. Further questions should be directed to the manufacturer.

This sensor takes a distance reading when enabled and reports the distance as a byte-value cooresponding to the distance between 10cm (~4") to 80cm (~30"). The interface is 4-wire and requires a JST connector which is included with each detector. Also included in the package is a diode required for interfacing the detector to TTL/CMOS logic. Controlling the detector is done by lowering the input line, waiting for ~70ms, and then clocking the detector 8 times to read out the distance measurment on the output line. Each package includes a booklet that describes plugging together the connector, interfacing the detector to logic and the protocol used to take measurements using the GP2D02.

Features

Impervious to color and reflectivity of reflected object
High precision distance measurement through output for direct connection to microcomputer
Low dissipation current at OFF-state (Typ. 0.3 uA).
