HOA6480 Series
Barcode Sensor
Infrared Products
DESCRIPTION
The HOA6480 Series is a reflective barcode sensor that
incorporates a VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface-emitting
Laser) emitter and phototransistor detector in a custom-
molded plastic package. The VCSEL technology allows
the sensor to operate with a very low drive current. The
phototransistor drives an operational amplifier with an
open-collector output, providing users with flexibility in
their interface designs.
The HOA6480 Series provides a digital output that
allows it to be interfaced with most decoding equipment.
The 4,5 mm [0.180 in] focal length allows measurement
with no contact and the 0,254 mm [0.010 in] resolution
works well in most barcode applications. The HOA6480
typical scan speed is 254,0 mm [10.0 in] per second.
A choice of pin, wire or custom termination allows
flexible interconnections and the reflective sensor
configuration promotes easy mounting.
POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS
•
Barcode verification in dispensing and processing
equipment
•
Line or edge detection
•
Encoding
•
Data collection from manufacturing lines, robotic
operations, production instrumentation/control units,
automated sorting and screening equipment and
analytical systems such as medical analysis. (Note
that carbon black ink is required for this device to
sense lines.)
