PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
G
Since the operation impedance is extremely high, the UV TRON should be connected as close as possible to the circuit
board within 5 cm.
G
Take care to avoid external noise since a C-MOS IC is used in the circuit. It is recommended that the whole PC board be put
in the shield box when it is used.
G
The DC-DC converter type high-voltage supply for this unit has a very high impedance. If the ambient humidity is high, then
electrical leakage on the printed circuit board surface might lead to a drop in the supply voltage to the UV TRON. This
voltage drop might cause lower sensitivity or malfunctions. If using the unit in a high humid environment apply a silicon-
based moisture-proof coating to the UV TRON connection terminals.

The background cancel circuit of the C10423 is de-
signed to output a signal only when 1 to 9 or more sig-
nal pulses from the UV TRON are detected consecu-
tively within 2 seconds. The background cancel level
is set to chip jumper position 3(J2) before shipment.
If the C10423 is used in locations where a high
amount of natural excitation (background) light is
present, then change the cancel level by reconnect-
ing the jumper position to 5(J3) and 9(J4).

The maximum rating of the open-collector transistor is 50 V / 100 mA. When connecting a relay or buzzer, use caution
not to exceed this rating.

The C10423 output pulse width is set to 10 ms before shipment. To expand the pulse width, connect a capacitor to this
terminal. (Make sure the polarity is correct when using an electrolytic capacitor.)
