This simple breakout board is designed to fit either the TCRT5000 or the VCNT2020. A basic implementation of the Vishay application notes is used to enable engineers to quickly evaluate the performance of these sensors. Many very useful sensors are available in packages that are difficult to quickly evaluate so we hope this is a meaningful addition to your toolbox.

DESIGN NOTES

The values chosen for the on-board components are based on these application notes:

🔗 Designing the VCNT2020 Into an Application

We highly recommend reading these to understand the operation of these sensors more clearly. The sensor side of the device will likely require either amplification for a linear application, or a simple
transistor for a set “trip” threshold application.
