{"title":"180° Infrared Refletive Unit (ITR9606)","handle":"180-infrared-refletive-unit-itr9606","url":"/products/180-infrared-refletive-unit-itr9606","description":"The OP.180 is an infrared reflective limit switch unit built around the ITR9606 sensor, which pairs an infrared emitting diode with a silicon phototransistor in a 180° (straight-through) orientation. When an object passes between the emitter and receiver, the IR beam is broken, triggering a digital signal change.\n\nConnects via a standard Grove cable for plug-and-play integration with M5Stack controllers and other Grove-compatible boards. The fast response time and high sensitivity make it well-suited for counting, position detection, and safety interlock applications.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nITR9606 Sensor – Infrared emitter and phototransistor pair for reliable detection\n\n180° Layout – Straight-through beam orientation for slot-style detection\n\nFast Response Time – Quick detection for high-speed counting applications\n\nHigh Sensitivity – Reliable switching with consistent IR signal\n\nGrove Interface – Simple plug-and-play connection\n\nDigital Output – Clean high/low signal when beam is interrupted\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nDoor and gate switches\nMachinery control and safety interlocks\nObject counting and position sensing\nEncoder and scanner applications\nNon-contact switching\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× OP.180 infrared reflective unit\n1× Grove cable\n\n\nResources\n\n\nExample Code (Arduino) – GitHub repository\n","vendor":"Little Bird","product_type":"physical","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":4828,"title":"Default Title","sku":"M5-U058","price":3.77,"compare_at_price":0.0,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
