Perfect for ESP32 Projects
Integrated smoothly with my ESP32 development board. The I2C communication is stable and the library support is extensive. Great for learning about biometric sensors.

Great for Learning
Bought this to understand how wearable trackers work. It is not for medical diagnosis, but for prototyping and education, it is exactly what I needed.

Good Quality Breakout Board
The soldering points are clear and the board feels durable. I used this for a university engineering project and it performed consistently throughout the testing phase.

Fast Data Reading
Impressed with the sampling rate. I was able to visualize the PPG waveform in real-time on my serial plotter. Excellent tool for understanding signal processing.

Works Well But Sensitive Wiring
The sensor itself is great, but the I2C lines are a bit sensitive to noise. Make sure you have good connections. Once set up, the data stream is reliable for hobby use.
Q: Is this compatible with 5V Arduino boards?
A: Yes, the module includes a voltage regulator and is compatible with both 3.3V and 5V logic levels.
Q: Can I use this for medical diagnosis?
A: No, this product is intended for engineering prototyping and hobbyist use only. It is not certified for medical diagnosis or treatment.
Q: What is the default I2C address?
A: The default I2C address is typically 0x57, but please refer to the datasheet for configuration options.
Q: Does this come with connecting wires?
A: The module includes the header pins, but jumper wires are sold separately to allow you to choose the length you need.
Q: Are there libraries available for this sensor?
A: Yes, there are several open-source libraries available for Arduino and PlatformIO that support the MAX30102 chipset.
