German TOPELO sensor TOPELO model TOPELO price

TOPELO sensors are devices that convert optical signals into electrical signals. Their operating principle is based on the photoelectric effect. The photoelectric effect refers to the phenomenon where electrons in a material absorb photon energy upon illumination, resulting in corresponding electrical effects. Based on different manifestations of the photoelectric effect, it is categorized into three types: external photoelectric effect, internal photoelectric effect, and photovoltaic effect. Photoelectric devices include phototubes, photomultiplier tubes, photoresistors, photodiodes, phototransistors, and solar cells. The performance and characteristic curves of photoelectric devices are analyzed.

TOPELO sensor features

High-precision single-axis tilt angle sensors, based on capacitive 3D-MEMS technology, demonstrate exceptional reliability, outstanding stability, and unprecedented high precision across the entire temperature range. The tilt angle sensor series is designed, manufactured, and tested according to the reliability and stability requirements of the automotive industry. These tilt angle sensors feature significant load capacity and excellent shock durability without requiring additional components. As part of the analog accelerometer product family, the tilt sensor is fully compatible with accelerometers. The output frequency of the tilt sensor is adjustable, and it includes built-in zero-point adjustment. A custom zero-point adjustment button can be provided to enable zeroing at a specific angle. This is particularly useful for applications measuring relative tilt angles, allowing the sensor to return to zero after use. In such applications, once the sensor is fixed to a reference plane, the zero-point button is used to clear the reading before measurement; subsequent data represents the relative tilt angle with respect to that plane.

TOPELO sensor application areas

Using angle sensors to control your wheels allows for indirect obstacle detection. The principle is straightforward: if the motor is running but the gear is not turning, your machine is likely blocked by an obstacle. This technique is simple to implement and highly effective; the only requirement is that the moving wheels must not slip excessively on the floor, otherwise obstacle detection will fail. Connecting an idler gear to the motor can avoid this issue. This wheel is not driven by the motor but is rotated by the movement of the device: if the idler wheel stops while the drive wheel is rotating, it indicates contact with an obstacle. Angle sensors are useful in many scenarios, such as controlling the position of arms, heads, and other movable parts. It is important to note that RCX accuracy in detection and counting may be compromised when operating speeds are too slow or too fast. In fact, the issue lies not with RCX itself, but with its operating system; if the speed exceeds the specified range, RCX may lose some data. Steve Baker has experimentally demonstrated that a rotational speed between 50 and 300 rpm is optimal, within which no data loss occurs. However, at speeds below 12rpm or above 1400rpm, partial data loss may occur. Additionally, within the ranges of 12rpm to 50rpm or 300rpm to 1400rpm, RCX may occasionally experience data loss.
