■Description
GP2Y0D02YK0F is a distance measuring
sensor unit,
composed of an integrated
combination of PSD (position
sensitive detector) , IRED (infrared
emitting diode) and signal
processing circuit.
The variety of the reflectivity of
the object, the environmental
temperature and the operating
duration are not influenced easily
to the distance detection because of
adopting the triangulation method.
The output voltage of this sensor
stays high in case an object exists
in the specified distance range. So
this sensor can also be used as
proximity sensor.
■Features
1. Digital output type
2. Detecting distance : Typ. 80 cm
3. Package size : 29.5×13×21.6 mm
4. Consumption current : Typ. 33 mA
5. Supply voltage : 4.5 to 5.5 V
■Agency approvals/Compliance
1. Compliant with RoHS directive
(2002/95/EC)
■Applications
1. Touch-less switch
(Sanitary equipment, Control of
illumination, etc.)
2. Sensor for energy saving
(ATM, Copier, Vending machine,
Laptop computer, LCD monitor)
3. Amusement equipment
(Robot, Arcade game machine)

■Notes
●Advice for the optics
The lens of this device needs to be
kept clean. There are cases that
dust, water or oil and so on
deteriorate
the characteristics of this device.
Please consider in actual
application.
Please don’t do washing. Washing
may deteriorate the characteristics
of optical system and so on.
Please confirm resistance to
chemicals under the actual usage
since this product has not been
designed against washing.
●Advice for the characteristics
In case that an optical filter is
set in front of the emitter and
detector portion, the optical filter
which has the most
efficient transmittance at the
emitting wavelength range of LED for
this product (λ = 850 ± 70nm), shall
be recommended to use. Both faces of
the filter should be mirror
polishing. Also, as there are cases
that the characteristics may not be
satisfied according to the distance
between the protection cover and
this product or the thickness of the
protection cover, please use this
product after confirming the
operation sufficiently in actual
application.
In case that there is an object
near to emitter side of the sensor
between sensor and a detecting
object, please use this device after
confirming sufficiently that the
characteristics of this sensor do
not change by the object.
When the detector is exposed to the
direct light from the sun, tungsten
lamp and so on, there are cases that
it can not measure the distance
exactly. Please consider the design
that the detector is not exposed to
the direct light from such light
source.
Distance to a mirror reflector can
not be sometimes measured exactly.
In case of changing the mounting
angle of this product, it may
measure the distance exactly.
In case that reflective object has
boundary line which material or
color etc. are excessively
different, in order to decrease
deviation of measuring distance, it
shall be recommended to set the
sensor that the direction of
boundary line and the line between
emitter center and detector center
are in parallel.
In order to decrease deviation of
measuring distance by moving
direction of the reflective object,
it shall be recommended to set the
sensor that the moving direction of
the object and the line between
emitter center and detector center
are vertical.
●Advice for the power supply
In order to stabilize power supply
line, we recommend to insert a
by-pass capacitor of 10μF or more
between Vcc and GND near this
product.
●Notes on handling
There are some possibilities that
the internal components in the
sensor may be exposed to the
excessive mechanical
stress. Please be careful not to
cause any excessive pressure on the
sensor package and also on the PCB
while assembling this product.
●Presence of ODC etc.
This product shall not contain the
following materials.
And they are not used in the
production process for this product.
Regulation substances : CFCs, Halon,
Carbon tetrachloride,
1.1.1-Trichloroethane
(Methylchloroform) Specific
brominated flame retardants such as
the PBB and PBDE are not used in
this product at all.
This product shall not contain the
following materials banned in the
RoHS Directive (2002/95/EC).
Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, Hexavalent
chromium, Polybrominated biphenyls
(PBB), Polybrominated diphenyl
ethers (PBDE).
