MMA7361 Accelerometer Module Features The MMA7361 is a 3-axis accelerometer with ± 1.5g to ± 6g measuring range. You do not need a library and complex code to use MMA7361 accelerometer. In this module, there is an analog output voltage for each axis acceleration. As a result, you can read and analyze sensor's outputs using an analog-to-digital converter. You can download the datasheet of this module here. [wpdm_package id='17442'] The output voltage for each axis of this module is as follows...

MPU9250 + BMP280 Module Features This module combines a 9-axis MPU8250 IMU and a BMP180 atmospheric pressure sensor. Therefore you have a 10DOF sensor in one place! It can communicate with arduino or any other microcontroller via I2C protocol. Using FreeIMU functions and source code, you can easily build an AHRS system to use in UAVs, VTOLs, model airplanes, etc. You can also use it in industrial, medical, ... devices.

BME280 technology is based on piezoelectric pressure and has a high accuracy, linearity and high stability and durability. In this tutorial, you will learn how to interface this module using I2C protocol. You can download the datasheet of this module here. [wpdm_package...

US-100 Distance Sensor Features The US-100 is an ultrasonic transmitter and receiver module used to measure distance. The sensor operation is very simple. You only need to measure the return time of ultrasonic waves in order to measure the distance. Then you can divide this time by 2 and multiplied by the sound speed. The sensor measuring range is about 2 to 450 cm. Note The US-100 module has 2 different communication protocol. Method 1: use serial communication Method 2: use Trigger and Echo (similar to ...

MC-38 Magnetic Sensor Anti Theft Alarm The MC38 is a magnetic switch. When a magnet (the wireless part of the sensor) approaches it, the sensor acts like a switch and the two pins are connected.This sensor is used to detect closed or open doors, windows and alarm systems. Note Magnetic switches are available in two types, Normally Open and Normally Close. In this tutorial we use a Normally Open switch that closes as the magnet approaches the sensor (the two sensor pins are connected). ...

RCWL-0516 Microwave Radar Sensor Features The RCWL-0516 microwave radar motion detection sensor is used to detect motion at a maximum distance of 9 meters. The viewing angle of this module is about 270 degrees and it has a digital output. You can install a photocell sensor on this module. Note The RCWL-0516 module does not work properly at a distance less than 20 cm. Note This module can measure a maximum distance of 7 meters by default; but you can adjust distance by placing a resistor behind the board. No...
