Pololu QTR-MD-06A Reflectance Sensor Array: 6-Channel, 8mm Pitch, Analog Output

The QTR-MD-06A Reflectance Sensor Array is a high-performance 6-channel sensor with an 8mm pitch and an analog output. With a size of 45.0mm x 20.0mm, this compact sensor is capable of precisely identifying changes in reflectance, making it ideal for tasks such as line detection. It operates efficiently within a voltage range of 2.9V to 5.5V, and its LED and board draw a maximum current of 30mA and 93mA respectively. The sensor's optimal range is 5mm, however, high-reflectance objects can be detected at distances up to 40mm.The QTR-MD-06A Reflectance Sensor Array is not only functional but also versatile. It's perfect for applications in robotics, automation, and other fields where precise detection of changes in reflectance is crucial. With its dimmable brightness control, it offers flexibility independent of the supply voltage, enabling users to adjust the sensor's brightness to suit specific needs.One of the standout features of this sensor array is its ability to detect high-reflectance objects at distances up to 40mm. This makes it particularly useful in environments where objects might not always be close to the sensor. Furthermore, the sensor array is designed without lenses, staying true to the traditional QTR sensor style. This design choice enhances the sensor's durability and longevity while maintaining its high performance.Overall, the QTR-MD-06A Reflectance Sensor Array is a reliable and versatile solution for any project requiring precise detection of changes in reflectance. Its compact size, operational efficiency, and unique features make it a valuable addition to any toolkit.
