Dust Sensor

This dust sensor from Waveshare features a Sharp GP2Y1010AU0F sensor, detecting fine particle larger than 0.8μm in diameter. It's great as part of a DIY environmental sensing project.

The sensor features an onboard voltage boost circuit to support a range of power supplies.

Features

• Low power consumption
• Analogue voltage output - output level is linear with dust density
• Embedded voltage boost circuit to support a wide range of power supply
• Note: Pin headers not included
