ROHM Semiconductor Optical Sensors for Touchless Switches

ROHM Semiconductor Optical Sensors for Touchless Switches are a broad portfolio of optical components ideal for non-contact switches. ROHM Semiconductor sensors offer optical operations that ensure the safety, convenience, and longer life of products. The portfolio comprises ambient light=proximity sensors, IR LEDs, and receiver elements.

Features

  • Enables non-contact detection
  • Utilizing reflected infrared light makes detection of the target object possible without contact
  • Long life, unlike mechanical switches
  • No direct physical contact prolongs life
  • Detects most objects
  • Detects anything that interrupts the light regardless of the material

Applications

  • Blood testing equipment
  • Disinfectant injectors
  • Garbage cans
  • Door open/close switches
  • Machine operating switches
  • Drink machines
  • Vending machines
  • Public restrooms
