Sensor and Detector Interfaces

QT117L-DG Description

The QT117L-DG is a single-channel sensor data output integrated circuit (IC) from Microchip Technology, part of the QProx™ series. This obsolete component is designed for through-hole mounting and is available in an 8-DIP package. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3V to 5V and features an SPI interface for data communication. The QT117L-DG is packaged in tape and reel (TR) format, making it suitable for automated assembly processes. It is REACH unaffected and RoHS3 compliant, ensuring it meets environmental and regulatory standards. The moisture sensitivity level (MSL) is rated at 1 (unlimited), indicating it is not sensitive to moisture during storage and handling.

QT117L-DG Features

• Single-Channel Input: The QT117L-DG is designed to handle a single input, making it ideal for applications requiring focused sensor data processing.
• SPI Interface: The SPI interface allows for efficient and reliable data communication with microcontrollers and other digital systems.
• 3V to 5V Supply Voltage: This wide voltage range provides flexibility in power supply options, making it suitable for various power configurations.
• Through-Hole Mounting: The through-hole mounting type ensures robust mechanical stability and ease of integration into printed circuit boards (PCBs).
• Environmental Compliance: Being REACH unaffected and RoHS3 compliant, the QT117L-DG meets stringent environmental regulations, ensuring safe and sustainable use.
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1: The MSL rating of 1 (unlimited) means the component can be stored and handled without special moisture protection, simplifying logistics and storage requirements.
