Air Quality Sensors This is a simple-to-use liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) sensor suitable for measuring LPG (primarily propane and butane) concentrations in the air. The MQ-6 can detect gas concentrations from 200 to 10000 ppm.This sensor has a high sensitivity and fa

Pressure Sensor Development Tools Flexiforce Pressure Sensor - 100lbs.

Board Mount Motion & Position Sensors This basic piezo sensor from Measurement Specialties is often used for flex touch vibration and shock measurements. A small AC and large voltage (up to +/-90V) is created when the film moves back and forth. A simple resistor should get the voltage

Air Quality Sensors Carbon Monoxide Sensor MQ-7

Pressure Sensor Development Tools This is a force sensitive resistor with a square 1.75x1.5" sensing area. This FSR will vary its resistance depending on how much pressure is being applied to the sensing area. The harder the force the lower the resistance. When no pressure is bein

Photodiodes The BPW34 is a tiny general purpose PiN photodiode. This photodiode has a ton of uses one of which is to use it is a mini solar cell to power your project. The cell is sensitive to a wide range of light wavelengths (430-1100nm) so it should produc

Optical Sensor Development Tools A simple breakout PCB for the GP1A57HR photo interrupter (also known as a photogate photodiode or phototransistor). This PCB has three connections for PWR GND and Signal.When the gate is clear SIG will be high (>4.9V). When the gate is blocked b

Force Sensors & Load Cells This very long force sensitive resistor - over 2 feet - has a sensing area of 0.25x24". This FSR from Interlink Electronics will vary its resistance depending on how much pressure is being applied to the sensing area. The harder the force the lower
