Sparkfun Panasonic® PIR Motion Sensor - EKMB1107112

The Panasonic® PIR Motion Sensor - EKMB1107112 is a compact and efficient solution for motion detection in small areas. This EKM-series sensor is designed to detect minor movements, making it ideal for battery-powered applications with its ultra-low standby current draw of just 1µA.This low-profile sensor, measuring 10.9mm in height compared to the standard 14.4mm, is perfect for space-constrained designs. It features a lens that creates multiple detection zones, an optical filter to block non-infrared light, pyroelectric sensing elements, electromagnetic shielding for all circuitry, and an impedance converter to generate an electrical signal. It offers digital output across 32 zones, with a detection distance of 5 meters and a 90° x 90° detection area.Common usage scenarios include security systems, energy-saving lighting systems, and automated home appliances. The sensor's ability to detect even small movements ensures that it can effectively trigger alarms or activate devices without unnecessary power consumption.One of the standout benefits of this sensor is its energy efficiency, making it highly suitable for battery-operated devices. Its compact size also allows for easy integration into various designs without compromising on performance.Features:
