TPL1252

The TPL1252 is a kind of compact photointerrupter with attched connector which uses a high-radiant power GaAs infrared LED and a Si photo IC. The TPL1252 device is a photointerrupter in highly reliable package which eliminates the need for printed circuit board and soldering. TPL1252 is optimum as a paper carrier location sensor for copiers and page printers. For the operating temperature is up to 95, the device can be used for high-temperature applications like paper-out sensors or air direction for air conditioner louvers. When the light is shielded, outputs are at low level.

There are some features of TPL1252 as follows: (1)high reliability package (PWBless, Solderingless); (2)small package; (3)mountable by one touch (snap-in mounting type); (4)mountable to boards in 3 kinds of thickness (1.0 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.6 mm); (5)gap: 5 mm; (6)resolution: slit width 0.5 mm; (7)high temperature operating: Topr=95; (8)low current consumption: ICC=14 mA max; (9)digital output (open collector); (10)connected to the CT connector (2 mm pitch MT receptacle type, MT crimp receptacle type made by AMP (Japan). Ltd); (11)material of the case: body: polycarbonate (UL94V-2); connector: 66 nylon (UL94V-0, white).

The last one is about the maximum ratings of TPL1252 (Ta=25): (1)supply voltage, VCC: 7.5 V; (2)output voltage, VO: 15 V; (3)low level output current, IOL: 16 mA; (4)operating temperature, Topr: -30 to 95; (5)storage temperature, Tstg: -40 to 100. Then is about the recommended operating conditions: (1)supply voltage, VCC: 4.5 V min, 5.0 V typ and 5.5 V max; (2)output voltage, VO: 5.0 V typ and 13.2 V max; (3)low level output current, IOL: 16 mA max.
