PAPER SENSORLead freeRoHS Standard

Paper sensors are optical sensors used to detect the presence, absence, jams, and position of paper in conveyance paths and paper trays of devices such as copiers and printers. These sensors use modulated light and are of the photonic integrated circuit (IC) type, which is highly resistant to external light and can operate stably even under normal lighting conditions. There are many types available, and products with a resistance of 5,000 lx or more to external light are also provided. As we adopt our own products for the sensor elements, we can also accommodate various custom specifications.
*Photonic ICs are a general term for integrated circuits that incorporate optical devices such as photodiodes and infrared light emitting diodes, signal processing circuits, and voltage regulation circuits.
