Reflective photoelectric sensor TCRT5000 with ambient light filter.

The sensor is composed of an infrared emitting LED and a phototransistor that emits a variable analog signal depending on the reflection.

Ideal for line-following robots due to the fact that it can differentiate between white and black surfaces.

Specifications:

• Recommended operating distance: 2.5mm
• Typical output current: 1mA
• Emission wavelength: 950nm
• Ambient light filter: Yes
