5 mm IR Transmitter and Receiver LED Tx Rx Pair Photodiode

Use this high power 5 mm IR LED Transmitter and Receiver pair to build wireless remotes for appliances, distance sensors, object sensors, colour sensors, line sensors, distance sensors, etc.

Can be directly connect to a microcontroller, Arduino or Raspberry Pi with only a few current limiting resistors and require no complex circuit for getting it working.

Both the transmitter and emitter are built to work on the the 940 nm wavelenght.

Features

• Size: 5mm LED
• Wavelength: 940nm wavelength (most commonly used)
• 100 mA continuous, 1000 mA pulse
• Approx 1.6V forward voltage
• Applicaitons: build wireless remotes for appliances, distance sensors, object sensors, colour sensors, line sensors, distance sensors, etc

Note: The transparent LED is transmitter while the dark blue one is the receiver.
