Standard for hobbyists

This is the go-to optical dust sensor for electronics projects. The 6-pin connector makes wiring easy, and it draws very little current.

Perfect for DIY Air Quality Monitors

This sensor works exactly as described. I integrated it with an Arduino and the analog readings are consistent. Great for detecting dust levels in my workshop.

Good value, requires calibration

The module is solid and well-built. Keep in mind you need to write your own code to interpret the voltage into PM2.5 values, but the datasheet helps.

Reliable detection

I used this to trigger my air purifier when cooking smoke is detected. It reacts very quickly to changes in air quality. Highly recommended.

Works well for larger particles

Great for monitoring general dust and smoke. Just remember it is an optical sensor, so it estimates mass based on scattering, not a laser counter.

Easy to interface

Even as a beginner, I got this working with a Raspberry Pi ADC within an hour. The output voltage scales linearly with dust density as expected.

5 FAQ

Q: Is there a library available for Arduino?

A: While we do not provide official software, there are several open-source community libraries available on GitHub specifically for the GP2Y1014AUVF.

Q: How often does the sensor need cleaning?

A: For optimal performance, we suggest inspecting the lens every 6 months. If dust accumulation is visible, gently clean it with compressed air or a soft swab.

Q: What is the minimum voltage required to operate this module?

A: The typical operating voltage is 5V DC. While it may function slightly lower, we recommend a stable 5V supply for accurate readings.

Q: Can this detect cigarette smoke effectively?

A: Yes, the optical scattering principle used by this sensor is effective at detecting fine particulates found in cigarette smoke and cooking fumes.

Q: Does this sensor output digital data directly?

A: No, the GP2Y1014AUVF outputs an analog voltage proportional to the dust density. You will need an Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) to read it with a microcontroller.
