MODULATED_LIGHT_BEAM_CIRCUIT_CANCELS_AMBIENT_LIGHT_EFFECTS

Published:2009/7/1 1:46:00 Author:May | From:SeekIC

Feedback control of the phototransistor in this optical detector helps negate the effects of varying ambient light sources. The output of a modulated visible-light LED is detected, amplified, buffered, and fed through a low-pass ftlter. Ambient light signals below the LED's 10-kHz modulating rate reach the detector's base out of phase with incoming ambient light and cancel the undesired effects.
