Description
The GY-ML8511 Ultraviolet Light UV Sensor Module is an ultraviolet light sensor that outputs an analog signal based on the amount of UV light detected. It has an operating voltage of 3–5 V and an operating current of 120–190 μA and can operate in temperatures as low as -40°.
The GY-ML8511 breakout is an easy-to-use ultraviolet light sensor The MP8511 UV (ultraviolet) Sensor works by outputting an analog signal about the amount of UV light that’s detected. This breakout can be very handy in creating devices that warn the.. user of sunburn or detect the UV index as it relates to weather conditions. This sensor detects 280-390nm light most effectively. This is categorized as part of the UVB (burning rays) spectrum and most of the UVA (tanning rays) spectrum. It outputs an analog voltage that is linearly related to the measured UV intensity (mW / cm2). If your microcontroller can do an analog-to-digital signal conversion then you can detect the level of UV! UV sensor IC is easy thanks to the high degree of integration of SOI-CMOS technology, suitable for digital and analog circuits.
ML8511 UV light can be used with an analog voltage output proportional to the amount. Since the output voltage can therefore be directly connected to the MCU-built A / D digital/analog converter, no photoelectric converting circuit. And the use of small, low-profile surface-mount packages, suitable for use in portable devices.
