The external case is molded using visible light cutoff resin. The
case has no openings, so the photosensor is not easily susceptible
to output attenuation resulting from dust or particles

Overview
CNZ1120 is a photocoupler in which a high efficiency GaAs
infrared light emitting diode is used as the light emitting element,
and a high sensitivity phototransistor is used as the light detecting
element. The two elements are arranged so as to face each other,
and objects passing between them are detected.
