RCWL-0516 Microwave Radar Sensor Module With Digital Output

RCWL-0516 Microwave Radar Sensor Module With Digital Output is a mini doppler radar sensor module equipped with supporting DC 4-28V wide voltage. It is an alternative to PIR sensor and use in many security alarms system.

This is a Doppler Radar Motion Sensor Board is equipped with RCWL-9196 chip based on the doppler microwave induction technology. It will automatically continuously output the high level TTL signal when there is motion with adjustable delay time and sensitivity. This Arduino Compatible Microwave Motion Sensor is perfect for DIY microwave motion sensor light switch, human sensor toys, smart security devices, etc.

Features:

• Equipped with RCWL-9196 chip supporting 4-28V wide voltage input, high level signal output when detecting the motion with active repeat trigger
• 360 degree no blind angle detection with 5-7m detecting distance, the detection not affected by the surroundings, better performance than the IR sensor
• Support night detecting function turn on /off, adjustable repeat trigger time and detecting distance by add the SMD components to the corresponding pins
• Compared with the traditional infrared feeling PIR, with the penetrating detection capability
• Block time, distance adjustable

Application Design Note:

• The sensing face in front of the gold without any shelter
• Front and rear sensing surface space to set aside more than 1CM
• The module carrier plane and install as flat line
• A certain application of effective detection area
• The component side of the module is positive sensing face, the opposite is negative sensing surface. Negative sensing surface sensing less effective
• Microwave modules cannot be large-scale applications in the same area, otherwise there will be mutual interference. Between single individuals over distance greater than 1M

Package Included

• 1 x RCWL-0516 Motion Detector Module
