I have a ball sensor from a washing machine that I need to know if it works. It has 5 volt dc power in and .7 voltdc out in low state or 2.97vdc out in high state.
This device is a simple opto emitter / detector with a ball in between. It detects motion when device is contacted by washer drum causing the ball to move allowing light to pass thru and it signals the computer.
My Q is -- is 2.97 vdc a healthy high state on 5vdc rail, and is .7 vdc a good low.
Also where can I find a data sheet on it, part no 6501FA2462C
Thanks, Jeff
