Perfect for my weather station project
This sensor works flawlessly with my Arduino setup. The analog output is stable and correlates well with actual sunlight conditions. Great value for the price.

Great for university projects
Bought this for a final year environmental monitoring project. Data consistency is excellent, and it survived outdoor testing without issues.

Accurate UV detection
Compared readings with a professional handheld meter, and the correlation was surprisingly close. Excellent module for hobbyists interested in solar energy.

Reliable and compact
Small form factor makes it easy to mount on my solar tracking robot. Reads changes in cloud cover instantly. Highly recommended for DIY electronics.

Good sensitivity, easy to integrate
I used this to monitor UV levels in my small greenhouse. It was very easy to wire up. The only reason for 4 stars is that the documentation could be slightly more detailed regarding calibration.

Solid performance
We bought ten of these for our workshop. Most worked perfectly out of the box. One had a noisy signal, but swapping it resolved the issue immediately.
Q: How do I calibrate this sensor for accurate readings?
A: Calibration typically involves comparing the sensor's output against a known reference UV meter under controlled sunlight conditions and creating a linear regression equation in your code.
Q: Does this module require any external libraries to work with Arduino?
A: No external libraries are strictly required. You can read the analog value using the standard analogRead() function. However, you may need to write your own conversion formula to map voltage to UV index.
Q: What is the maximum voltage I can supply to the VCC pin?
A: The module operates safely between 3.3V and 5.0V. We recommend not exceeding 5.0V to prevent damage to the onboard components.
Q: Is the output digital or analog?
A: The output is analog. The voltage level on the OUT pin varies proportionally with the detected UV intensity.
Q: Can this sensor detect UV-B rays as well?
A: This specific model (GUVA-S12SD) is primarily optimized for the UV-A spectrum (320-400nm). It is not designed for accurate UV-B measurement.
