Description:
Sharp’s GP2Y1010AU0F is an optical air quality sensor, designed to sense dust
particles. An infrared emitting diode and a phototransistor are diagonally arranged
into this device, to allow it to detect the reflected light of dust in air. It is especially
effective in detecting very fine particles like cigarette smoke, and is commonly used in
air purifier systems.
The sensor has a very low current consumption (20mA max, 11mA typical), and can be
powered with up to 7VDC. The output of the sensor is an analog voltage proportional
to the measured dust density, with a sensitivity of 0.5V/0.1mg/m3.
To interface with the sensor you need to connect to its 6-pin, 1.5mm pitch connector.
