Description
Dust sensor allows you to monitor the purity of the air. It is equipped with the Sharp GP2Y1010AU0F sensor, it allows to detect particles with diameter of more than 0.8 µm, for example, cigarette smoke. The system is powered by a voltage from 2.5 V to 5.5 V, it works in a range of up to 500 µg/m3 with a sensitivity of 0.5 V / (100µg/m3).
The kit includes wires with female connectors to facilitate connection of the sensor.

The manufacturer provides auser manualandsample programs, i.a. for the Arduino. |
Connection
The sensor has four leads, their description is in a table.
| Pin | Description |
|---|---|
| VCC | Supply voltage: from 2.5 V to 5.0 V |
| GND | The ground of the system. |
| AOUT | Analog output: 0.5 V / (100 µg/m3). |
| ILED | Configuration pin, before reading the measurement the high statusshould be indicated to activate the sensor. |
The system can be connected with any microcontroller with the A/C converter, for example,in Arduino AVRem.
