Infrared proximity sensor made by Sharp. Part # GP2Y0A41SK0F has an analog output that varies from 3.1V at 4cm to 0.3V at 30cm with a supply voltage between 4.5 and 5.5VDC. The sensor has a Japanese Solderless Terminal (JST) Connector. We recommend purchasing the related pigtail below or solderin...

SKU: SF-SEN-00242

The Sharp GP2Y0A21YK is an infrared proximity sensor with an analogue voltage output that varies with distance — from 3.1 V at 10 cm to 0.4 V at 80 cm. It uses an IR emitter and position-sensitive detector to measure distance, making it unaffected by the colour or reflectivity of most objects. T...

SKU: PL-2461

Discontinuation notice: These original (irs05a) versions of our 38 kHz IR proximity sensors have been replaced by newer (irs05b) high-brightness and low-brightness versions. The main changes are the locations of the emitter LED and IR detector, which have been moved away from the edge of t...

SKU: PL-2578

This module features a fixed-gain, 38 kHz modulated IR sensor and a corresponding IR LED with oscillator circuit to make a tiny proximity sensor. This high-brightness version draws an average of 16 mA at 5 V and has a typical sensing range up to approximately 24 inches (60&nb...

SKU: SF-SEN-15177

The SparkFun VCNL4040 Proximity Sensor Breakout detects objects qualitatively up to 20 cm away using infrared proximity sensing. It also includes a built-in ambient light sensor, making it a versatile dual-function module. With no dead zone, it can read objects all the way to the face of the sens...

SKU: DF-SEN0239

A digital infrared proximity sensor with adjustable detection range from 0 to 200 cm. Outputs a simple digital signal — HIGH when an obstacle is detected, LOW when clear. The detection threshold is adjustable via a rear-mounted screw, making it easy to tune for different applications. Features t...

SKU: DF-FIT0658

This compact 5V inductive proximity switch detects metal objects at distances up to 4mm without physical contact. It features an NPN normally-open output, a fast response time under 1ms, and a 1,000Hz switching frequency — making it reliable for high-speed detection applications. With an IP67 pr...

SKU: DF-SEN0381

A digital infrared proximity sensor with an adjustable detection range of 0–200 cm. It uses diffuse IR reflection to detect objects or people, outputting a digital high signal when something enters the sensing zone and returning to low when cleared — ideal for smart home, security, robotics, and ...
