Hi,
I am trying to figure out how a computer mouse works and have come across a number of helpful websites telling me how the TWO sensors for the mouse work together to figure out the direction of the wheel. I opened up my mouse and I don't see the two sensors just the one IR emitter, and one IR detector with three pins. I assume that this is actually is a 2 sensors in 1 package, but I can't seem to find any documentation or parts on any online store.
Is this really a 2 sensors in 1 package deal? Can anyone find the part online?
