## Description

Founded in 2014, DIYmall. Specializes in providing comprehensive solutions for LoRa, IOT/IIOT, Audio, Automation, Smart Home, etc. Top-selling New Arrivals LoRa32 V3 Kit for Meshtastic Servos WS2812B LED Ring

Review: Great for projects - My first impression is that these are great little sensors. They seem to detect motion well and hookup is really easy. They work perfectly to drive the 5 volt input of a relay module; when I get time to experiment I'll see what they can really do.
Review: Can't beat these for the price. - Hooked the VCC and ground to a 12v A/C adapter and it worked perfect. The 3.3v "trigger" pin (the "OUT") even had enough juice to directly power a red LED (tho a little dimmer than normal). Very wide sensitivity pattern. Tho description says "< 100 degrees" I thought it was greater than 120. At default sensitivity it would trigger easily from 8-10' away. I never adjusted it as that was the perfect distance for my needs. Holding it with the sensor "dome" facing down and the adjusting (orange) "screws" facing you, the left one is the sensitivity, the right is the duration that the OUT pin will stay "on" (i.e. hold at 3.3v). Minimum seems to be around 4 seconds.

## Features

- Using Potentiometer 105, output timing is from 0.5S to 200S
- Widely used in:Security Products,human body sensors toys,human body sensor lighting industrial automation and control, etc
- NOTE: On this retrigger jumper is a solder jumper, and you need solder it by yourself
- Pls note that there is no IR emitter in this module, the principle of PIR sensor is to detect the infrared radiation emitted by the human body, it only have a IR sensor (cell)
- Package Included: 5 X HC-SR501 PIR Infared Sensor

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the sensitivity adjustable?**
A: Yes there are two pots on the board you can use to adjust. Check the web for how to do it.

**Q: Can i hook this directly to the item i want to switch? it’s dc current.**
A: WRCoyle is pretty much wrong on their answer. I'm assuming you want to turn electricity on to another device with this? The answer to that is no. This provides a logic output that is high when it is triggered and low when on standby. The BISS0001 chip on this has the output pin rated for 10mA and it goes straight to the out pin on the board, no transistor used to handle more power. It can run a regular LED using a resistor to limit the LED to 10mA or less. Beyond that, you will need a transistor or solid state relay or some other setup to handle any amount of current.

**Q: How would you describe the range and sensitivity of these?  I need to detect when motion stops in a 12x14 room of people.**
A: It will sense any movement (heating moving paper)  in a room of that size

**Q: Could this be used to replace a faulty IR sensor on animated halloween props?**
A: The pir sensor should work but the output is simply a logic level output. It will not provide much current.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good module for Makers
*by P***P on April 9, 2021*

These modules are perfectly good for most applications they are intended for. If you want very close movement (2 meters to 2 millimeters) you need to sonic ones. I tested these with an ESP-12 and have great results. For those complaining about false positives, and unreliable readings... When you switch a GPIO pin to an input and hang a long wire off it, that wire can pick up stray signals and cause the voltage on the GPIO pin to vary. This can cause the system to think the switch has changed. To fix this, there are several things you can do. 1. add a pull-up resistor 2. add a bypass capacitor 3. shielding on the wire 4. use twisted pair wiring A pull-up resistor is a resistor connected between the GPIO pin and 3.3v. The exact value of this is not critical, 4.7k is a common value to use, as is 10k. This ensures that when the switch it open, the GPIO pin will go high. A bypass capacitor is a small (pF range) capacitor that is connected between the GPIO and ground. This provides a path for any radio signals that are picked up by the wire to go to ground and not confuse the system. Shielding or using twisted pair wiring are other ways to reduce the effect of radio signals on the system.
