Description
A device that responds to infrared (IR) radiation is known as an infrared detector. These devices are typically designed to operate at 940nm and are useful for various IR applications such as remote control and touch-less object sensing. By connecting a basic ADC to a microcontroller, the detector can gather variable readings. The PT908-7C-F is a phototransistor that comes in a small package and is enclosed in a plastic material with a spherical top view lens. It is designed to be spectrally compatible with infrared emitting diodes.
