how can i know the circuit are using a sensors?and anybody know what kind of circuit using op-amp and has 2 sensor?
-My english so poor i hope you all still understand my question,sORRy-
 
On op-amp connected to two sensors? What I can think of is that it compares which sensor is detecting closer and which is farther...but doesn't tell anything else other than that...
 
So what?

What do you want to do with these sensors?
 
sensor

sensor
Q1 < how can i know the circuit are using a sensors? >
A1 the circuit schematic might help.
.....................................................................................
Q2< what kind of circuit using op-amp and has 2 sensor? >
A2 a single op amp could distinguish btwn 2 sensors.
( see < ATTACHMENT > )

The example circuit gives:
1. IR_1]Lit ; IR_2]Dark then Ein > +1.0
2. IR_1]Dark ; IR_2]Lit Ein < -1.0
......................................................
3. IR_1]Dark ; IR2]Dark Ein =0
4. matched components, IR_1, IR_2 receive equal light
IR_1]Lit ; IR_2]Lit Ein =0

Why use text to make a simple schematic? It looks like Chinese writing.
I draw straight lines and copy and paste things into Microsoft Paint to make clear schematics.

i don't understand it......,
 
sensors

Is the ATTACHMENT drawing too hard to understand ?

OR should I explain in more detail ?

Yes.
It is not a real schematic, it is just a bunch of text punctuation marks that don't mean anything.
 
new schematic ( drawn using MS Paint...thank you < audioguru > )

disregard old schematic !

The new schematic example circuit gives:

when infra red sensor is lit, IR_x]Lit <10k
when infra red sensor is dark, IR_y]Dark >200k

case1 IR_1]Lit ; IR_2]Dark Ein > +1.0
case2 IR_1]Dark ; IR_2]Lit Ein < -1.0
......................................................
case3 IR_1]Dark ; IR2]Dark Ein =0

case4 matched components, IR_1, IR_2 receive equal light IR_1]Lit = IR_2]Lit Ein =0

I don't know why diodes are used when an opamp has two very sensistive inputs that can be used instead like a comparator.
 
Perhapps you should read more about opamps.
