Photo IC type with a groove width of 3 mm has been added to the SMD type photomicrosensor series, which is effective for miniaturizing equipment.
- The ultra-low-profile design of the element part with a groove width of 3 mm (external dimension of 6 mm) contributes to the miniaturization of equipment.
- Digital output for easy circuit design reduces design man-hours.
- Photo IC output (response frequency: 3 kHz) ideal for applications requiring high-speed response such as gear rotation counts.
- The structure with pads on the sides instead of the structure with bent lead terminals stabilizes surface mounting.

* 1.2cn type
Industry's smallest class*2, supporting multi-angle operation even without a lever. A switch that increases the design flexibility of customer units is now available.
![D2EW Sealed Ultra Subminiature Basic Switch W8.3mm×L5.3mm×H7.0mm Blue N.O. contact / Red N.C. contact](/eu-en/sites/components.omron.com.eu/files/2023-04/onboard_267_2_04_en.png)
For the blue N.O. contact and the red N.C. contact, the post shapes are arranged in alternate directions on the left and right sides. This prevents incorrect assembly.*3

![[NG Conventional switch]:This cannot be operated from the side. [OK Countermeasure 1]D2GW:This can be operated with a lever, but requires space. [OK Countermeasure 2]D2EW:No lever is required, so this can be operated with minimum cam and minimum space. (NEW)](/eu-en/sites/components.omron.com.eu/files/2023-04/onboard_267_2_05_en.png)
