General Description
The TSL1401CL linear sensor array consists of an 128 × 1 array of photodiodes, associated charge amplifier circuitry, and an internal pixel data-hold function that provides simultaneous integration start and stop times for all pixels. The array is made up of 128 pixels, each of which has a photo-sensitive area of 3524.3 square micrometers. There is 8-μm spacing between pixels. Operation is simplified by internal control logic that require only a serial-input (SI) signal and a clock.

TSL1401EvalKit
The TSL1401 Evaluation Kit is a self-contained 400 DPI continuous real-time imaging system which allows a host to scan in one dimension or two dimensional by moving either the subject or the sensor perpendicular to the sensor array axis. The evaluation kit comprises of a Parallax 2pe Motherboard, a TSL1401 daughter board with IR filter lens and lens cover, and a USB cable. The monitor software provides analysis of individual or groups of pixels as well as threshold level or window analysis.
