What is AM2301 Sensor? The AM2301 module is an internally-calibrated digital sensor that measures temperature and humidity. It can measure humidity from 0 to 99.9% with an accuracy of ±2% and temperatures from -40 to 80°C with an accuracy of ±3°C.This digital module uses a single-wire protocol for communication. So, apart from the power supply pins, it only needs one digital pin to communicate with the microcontroller. Using this protocol, we can transfer data through this line for a maximum distanc...

Inductive Proximity Sensor LJ12A3-4-Z/BY Features A proximity sensor is a sensor able to detect the presence of nearby objects. The inductive proximity sensor LJ12A3-4-Z / BY has three pins, two of which are connected to a supply voltage of 6 to 36V. The output pin is PNP and NO (Normally Open). That is, it is normally Low and when it detects an object, it is HIGH. The detection distance is 4 mm and it can only detect metal objects such as copper, aluminum, iron, etc. Note Because the operatio...

APDS-9930 Ambient Light Sensor Features This module consists of ambient light , IR and proximity sensors. The detection distance is up to 100 mm. The APDS-9930 sensor measures the ambient light. This sensor can also detect 0.01 Lux brightness in the dark. It can also be used behind dark glass like a mobile screen. For example, it turns off the touch screen during voice calls when your ear is close to the screen.This sensor can be used to adjust the brightness of mobile backlight and the approp...

LJ12A3-4-Z/BX Inductive Proximity Sensor Features Proximity sensors are used to detect the presence of nearby objects. The LJ12A3-4-Z / BX sensor has three pins, two of which are connected to a supply voltage of 6 to 36 V. The output pin is PNP and NO (Normal Open). That is, it is normally Low and when it detects an object, it becomes HIGH. The detection distance is 4 mm, and it can only detect metal objects such as copper, aluminum, iron, etc. Note Since the operation voltage is more than 5 V,...
