Generic TCRT5000 IR Tracking Sensor Module - Digital Output, 5V
The TCRT5000 IR Tracking Sensor Module is a 5V digital output photoelectric sensor designed for line-following and proximity detection applications. It integrates a TCRT5000 reflective optical sensor with a comparator circuit, providing stable digital signals for easy interfacing with Arduino, AVR, ARM, and PIC microcontrollers.
Features
- Integrated TCRT5000 reflective infrared sensor with comparator for clean digital output.
- 5V DC operating voltage compatible with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and common microcontrollers.
- Digital output signal (LOW for black/detected, HIGH for white/undetected).
- Compact PCB design (43mm x 12mm) with mounting hole for easy installation.
- Typical detection distance of up to 25mm for reliable line tracking.

This module utilizes the TCRT5000 photoelectric sensor, which combines an infrared emitter and a phototransistor in a single package. The onboard comparator circuit converts the analog phototransistor signal into a stable digital output, simplifying integration and reducing noise susceptibility. The module is engineered for stability and anti-interference, making it suitable for dynamic environments.
Designed primarily for robotic line-following applications, it provides a low-level output when detecting a dark/black surface (high IR absorption) and a high-level output over a reflective/white surface. Its compact form factor and pre-drilled mounting hole facilitate secure installation on robotic platforms and automated guided vehicles (AGVs).
