Great for weather stations
Works perfectly with my ESP32 setup. I2C address was easy to find. Reading UV index accurately compared to local weather reports.

Good module, needs pull-ups
Solid sensor. Make sure you have pull-up resistors on your I2C line if your board doesn't have them. Otherwise, readings are stable.

Accurate and compact
Very small footprint. Integrated into a portable UV monitor. Power consumption is low enough for battery projects.

Reliable data
Used it to log UV exposure during hiking trips. Data matches expectations. Wish it came with headers soldered.
Q: Can this module measure UV-C radiation?
A: No, this sensor is designed specifically for UVA and UVB detection only.
Q: How do I calculate the UV Index from raw data?
A: The library provides raw data; UV Index calculation formulas are provided in the official datasheet.
Q: What is the default I2C address for this sensor?
A: The default I2C address is 0x10. Please refer to the datasheet for configuration options.
Q: Does it work with 5V logic levels?
A: Yes, the module supports 3.3V to 5V logic levels comfortably.
Q: Is the board waterproof for outdoor use?
A: The module itself is not waterproof. Please house it in a suitable enclosure for outdoor applications.
