About this item

The PAA5100JE-Q by PixArt Imaging is a high-performance optical navigation sensor designed for accurate surface tracking and motion detection. Engineered for use in robotics and automation, this sensor outputs precise X-Y motion data by analyzing reflected light from a surface. With a working range of 15 mm to 35 mm, it can reliably detect movement over a wide variety of surfaces when paired with external illumination.Housed in a compact 28-pin land-grid-array (LGA) package, the PAA5100JE-Q is ideal for embedded designs where space and efficiency are critical. It is particularly well-suited for use in robotic vacuum cleaners, autonomous vehicles, and other robotic navigation systems, where understanding position and movement relative to a surface is essential.Thanks to its high-resolution tracking, low power consumption, and reliable performance, the PAA5100JE-Q enables stable and accurate motion sensing in complex environments. Its ability to detect subtle shifts in movement helps enhance the navigation intelligence of robots and mobile systems, even on textured or low-contrast surfaces.Whether used in mobile robotics or interactive systems, the PAA5100JE-Q provides a powerful and reliable optical navigation solution.
