This sensor module has 8 IR LED/phototransistor pairs mounted on a 0.375" pitch, making it a great detector for a line-following robot. Pairs of LEDs are arranged in series to halve current consumption, and a MOSFET allows the LEDs to be turned off for additional sensing or power-savings options. Each sensor provides a separate digital I/O-measurable output.

QTR-8RC reflectance sensor array.

Schematic diagram of the QTR-8RC reflectance sensor array.

QTR-8A reflectance sensor array with included 25-pin 0.1" header strip and 100 Ohm through-hole resistor.

The QTR-8A reflectance sensor can separate into two smaller, functional arrays of length 2 and 6.
