This infrared sensor is designed for use as an endstop for 3D printers but it can be used for other IR beam interrupter purposes as well.

The module was designed to detect travel limits for 3D printers, but they will work for many beam-break applications such for a security system or counting revolutions of a spoked wheel that passes through the uprights.

This module has an IR transmitter and receiver pair that face each other across a U-shaped housing. An object moving through the uprights breaks the IR beam.

The output is normally held LOW. When the beam is broken, the output goes HIGH and a green LED on the module illuminates.

The module uses a 3-pin 2.54mm JST style connector.  The other end of the cable terminates in the same kind of connector and is compatible with a standard 2.54mm male headers.

 

NOTES

  • That the cable is not color coded. Red does not necessarily go to Vcc, so be sure to follow the pin-out of the connector labeled on the back of the board as shown below
  • 1×3 Connector
    • VCC= 3.3 or 5V to match the MCU.
    • GND = Ground which should be common with the MCU.
    • SIG = Signal output of the module.  This pin is normally LOW.  When the IR beam is broken, the output goes HIGH (Vcc).
  • The module has 2 large mounting holes.
