Compared with LED or EEL, the proximity sensor uses VCSEL as the transmitter to have higher sensitivity, easier to integrate, less interference to ambient light and lower power consumption. The vision of BRIGHTLASER is that everyone can use this innovation to gain the freedom of life. Therefore, a reasonably priced VCSEL proximity sensor was launched.
The A7-C with the product code LS-0940G-015C-EC-KA7 is an advanced VCSEL proximity sensor, which is integrated with the 940nm VCSEL designed by ourselves, thus greatly reducing the cost. The compact circuit size is small (10m x 10mm), and other components can be easily integrated. The A7-C sensor detects nearby obstacles with a maximum range of 15cm, and its measurement frequency can be customized to optimize power consumption and suit unique application purposes. It consists of 4 pin interfaces (EN, OUT, GND, VCC).
The proximity sensor based on VCSEL has the following advantages:
1. Low price 2. Advanced performance 3. Small size 4. Easy to integrate 5. Reliable equipment
Application of proximity sensor:
Such as automatic sterilizer dispenser, automatic faucet, automatic door and anti-collision alarm wheelchair, etc.
In addition to A7-C, other products of the A7 series are also available, with a longer detection range up to 200 cm. They can be used in various consumable applications, such as automatic doors, automatic sensor faucets, automatic flush toilets, automatic hand sanitizer dispensers and any non-contact detection system.
BRIGHTLASER also provides 808nm/850nm/940nm VCSEL chip and diode optical power, from 8mW to 10W in CW mode, and up to 1000W in pulse mode. It is packaged by SMD, TO-CAN, T device or multi-channel, and PD, Diffuser or DOE integration. In addition, we also provide customizable various VCSEL diodes, VCSEL modules, proximity sensors, distance sensors, laser illuminators and LiDAR.
