Description
This adapter lets you read Sharp distance sensors with a Phidgets Analog Input or VINT Hub port.
The IR Distance Adapter is designed to interface Sharp IR distance sensors to an analog input on a PhidgetInterface board. Any sharp sensor with a supply voltage of 5V and an output voltage range falling within 0-5V is compatible with this adapter. The cable included with this adapter uses a JST S3B-PH connector, like the sharp sensors sold by Phidgets Inc. If your sharp sensor uses a different connector, you'll need to find a matching cable for it.
