Sharp GP2Y0A700K Infrared Sensor
|
|
The GP2Y0A700K infrared sensor takes a continuous distance reading and reports the distance as an analog voltage with a distance range of 1m (39.3") to 5.5m (216.5").
The interface is 5-wire JST connector (included with pins) with dual Vcc, dual Gnd, and a single output voltage.
Simply provide power and ground, and read a continuous analog voltage representing distance. A software lookup table can be implemented to translate the voltages to distances.
Please note that it can be tedious to crimp and solder wires to the included JST pins (which are tiny). You should be proficient in crimping/soldering, or know someone who is, which can help you. Also, we have found that the best wire to use is 28AWG braided wire.
