vol.267 April 2023
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.

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.
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)](/sites/default/files/2023-04/onboard_267_2_05_en.png)
