Optical Distributor


Optical sensors serve the same purpose as a hall effect sensor. They are very similar in some ways but differ in the way that their voltage is produced.

Instead of having the Hall effect I.C, and magnet, it has an LED. The optical sensor converts the light from the light rays into electrical signals. It measures the physical quantity of the light and translates it into a form that can be decoded by the instrument.



This wave form oscilloscope pattern is almost identical to that of the hall effect sensor.
1. The dwell time
2. The firing time.
3. The voltage produced.
