Infrared Proximity Sensor Long Range - Sharp GP2Y0A02YK0F

Infrared proximity sensor made by Sharp. Part # GP2Y0A02YK0F has an analog output that varies from 2.8V at 15cm to 0.4V at 150cm with a supply voltage between 4.5 and 5.5VDC. The sensor has a Japanese Solderless Terminal (JST) Connector. We recommend purchasing the related pigtail below or soldering wires directly to the back of the module.
This sensor is great for sensing objects up to 5 feet away!

specifications:
- Power Supply: 4.5 VDC - 5.5 VDC
- Able to measure distances in the range: 20cm - 150cm
- Output: analog voltage
- Uses infrared sensors IRED (Infrared Emiting Diode)
- The sensor receiver using a PSD (Position Sensitive Detector)
