IRPS
Infra Red reflective proximity sensor
This simple IR proximity sensor uses 'modulated
burst' sensing method to avoid false triggering
and interference.
It has a range of about 4 -12cm (depending on the
type of reflective surface), and will not respond at
all to matt black. Response time is around 10mS,
and a small amount of hysteresis (about 1cm) is
included to avoid 'chattering' at limit range
Vertical and horizontal axis of 'sight' versions will
be available.

Notes:
1. Pin 1 (OBJ) is a cmos logic output
2. Pin 3 (n_RST) has a 100K pullup to Vcc
3. An optional light emitting diode (low current, 1206 package) can be fitted on the PCB
When fitted, it is connected between Pin 4 (LED) and GND
4. The module pinout fits on a 0.1" pitch matrix
5. Vertical and horizontal view versions are available
