Product Description
Vishay TCST2103 Through Hole Slotted Optical Switch with Phototransistor Output is a high-quality miniature transmissive sensor assembly. It combines an infrared emitter and a phototransistor placed face-to-face on optical axes within a leaded package designed to block visible light, ensuring precise optical interruption detection.
The package employs a through hole mount type suitable for PCB applications and features a 3.1 mm wide slot for object interruption. The device offers a typical rise time of 10 μs and fall time of 8 μs, providing fast response suitable for high-speed switching.
Operating temperature ranges from a low of -55°C up to a maximum of 85°C, enabling usage in diverse industrial environments. The TCST2103’s typical output current under test is IC = 4 mA, delivering consistent phototransistor-driven output signals.
Additional features include a daylight blocking filter and an emitter wavelength peak at 950 nm, which collectively improve sensing accuracy by minimizing interference from ambient light sources. Its compact dimensions of 24.5 mm length, 6.3 mm width, and 10.8 mm height make it suitable for space-constrained designs.
This Slotted Optical Switch is extensively used in optical switching mechanisms, photo interrupters, counting devices, and rotary encoders in industrial automation, manufacturing, and instrumentation sectors.
