ITR9606 4 Pin Opto Interrupter Sensor DIP4 (ITR9606 Optical Sensor)
The ITR9606 4 Pin Opto Interrupter Sensor DIP4 is a compact slotted optical switch designed for non contact object detection and position sensing. It consists of an infrared emitting diode and an NPN silicon phototransistor placed facing each other inside a molded housing. When an object interrupts the IR beam, the output of the phototransistor changes state, enabling precise detection and switching.
The ITR9606 sensor is widely used in India for embedded systems, industrial electronics, encoder systems, and automation equipment. It is valued for its fast response time, high sensitivity, and reliable operation in applications such as speed detection, slot sensing, and object counting.
