Solid component

Ordered five units for a class project. All arrived in good condition and functioned correctly. One unit had slightly higher noise on the output, but filtering solved it.

Reliable for hobbyist projects

Been running this for three months straight monitoring my workshop. It detects sanding dust effectively. Great price point for the performance.

Perfect drop-in replacement

I needed a replacement for my old air quality monitor that used the GP2Y1010. This module fit perfectly and the pinout is identical. Readings are consistent with my reference meter.

Good value, requires calibration

The sensor works well out of the box, but like most optical dust sensors, it needs some calibration code to get accurate PM2.5 values. The hardware quality seems solid.

Works but sensitive to placement

The sensor works, but I found the readings vary significantly if there is direct sunlight hitting the casing. Had to 3D print a light-tight enclosure for best results.

Easy to interface with ESP32

Connected this to an ESP32 for a home automation project. The analog output is stable. Make sure you follow the timing diagram in the datasheet for the LED pulse.

5 FAQ

Q: Is there a digital version of this specific model?

A: No, the GP2Y1014AU outputs an analog voltage proportional to dust density. You must use an ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) on your microcontroller to read the data digitally.

Q: Is this sensor capable of detecting PM10 particles as well?

A: While primarily optimized for PM2.5, the optical scattering principle allows it to detect larger particles like PM10, though accuracy decreases for particles significantly larger than 2.5 micrometers without specific calibration.

Q: Does this come with a cable or just the module?

A: This listing includes only the sensor module with the header pins. The JST connecting cable is sold separately.

Q: What is the expected lifespan of the IR LED inside?

A: Under normal operating conditions following the recommended duty cycle (pulse drive), the IR LED is designed to last for several years. Continuous operation without pulsing will significantly reduce its lifespan.

Q: Can I power this with 3.3V instead of 5V?

A: No, the internal IR LED requires 5V to operate at the specified intensity for accurate readings. Using 3.3V may result in weak signals or failure to detect particles.
