101020031 Arduino - Grove Piezo Vibration Sensor, LDT0-028

Description The Grove Piezo Vibration Sensor is suitable for detecting elasticity, vibrations, impacts, and touch. The module is based on the LDT0-028 PZT thin-film sensor. When the sensor moves back and forth, a voltage is generated inside it due to the so-called piezoelectric effect.

This allows for the output of HIGH and LOW signals. In addition to the fact that the product can withstand strong impacts, its wide dynamic range (0.001 Hz ~ 1,000 MHz) ensures excellent measurement performance. Last but not least, the sensitivity can be adjusted using a screw on the potentiometer.

Technical Features - Standard Grove connector - Wide dynamic measurement range: 0.001 Hz ... 1,000 MHz - Adjustable sensitivity - High resistance to shocks, even under severe impact

Applications - Detection of vibrations in a washing machine - Circuit for motion-activated triggering - Cost-effective vibration sensor - Car warning system - Detection of object movements - Security systems

For Grove users (especially beginners), instructions are available in PDF format. Before using the product, be sure to read the “Preface," “Getting Started," and “Introduction to Grove" chapters!
