The output of the light receiving circuit 2 is as shown in Fig. 2. When the light is turned ON due to light shielding (state a 1 → a 2 ), the current consumption of the light receiving circuit 2 is smaller than that during light passing operation, so light is not emitted at the time of ON. The drive current flowing through the element 1 decreases, and the amount of light from the light emitting element 1 decreases discontinuously.
Therefore, once the light emitting element 1 is turned on, the ON state is stably maintained even if the amount of light emitted by the light emitting element 1 fluctuates to some extent. OFF due to light passing (state a 3 → a 4 )
The same is true when the light receiving circuit 2 is turned off, as its current consumption increases during light passing operation.
At this point, the driving current of the light emitting element 1 increases, and the amount of light of the light emitting element 1 increases discontinuously. Therefore, once
Once the light emitting element 1 shifts to the OFF state, the OFF state is stably maintained even if the amount of light emitted by the light emitting element 1 fluctuates to some extent.
