Infrared Proximity Sensor Sharp GP2Y0A41SK0F
The Infrared Proximity Sensor from Sharp (GP2Y0A41SK0F) sinks 22mA during its light phasing cycle. I am concerned that this is too much to connect to the Roborio analog input supply voltage. I looked on the spec sheet for the Roborio, but I have not found the max current for the 5V analog input supply rail. I have found a notation in the spec document that the Roborio can source a max of 1.0A on the 5V supply. Does this hold true for this particular rail?
How much current can I draw from the +5V rail on the Roborio analog input connector? Has anyone set up one of these sensors with the Roborio?
