SparkFun Air Quality PM1/PM2.5/PM10 Sensor
SparkFun Air Quality PM1/PM2.5/PM10 Sensor uses an innovative design based on ultra-compact lasers with integrated photodiodes. This sensor applies sophisticated algorithms to track the PM concentration directly in free space, without requiring a fan. The air quality sensor can detect PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 in real time to provide actionable data. This sensor features a breakout board populated with the BMV080 sensor, connected via its flexible cable with the FPC 13-pin 0.33mm connector. The air quality sensor supports a horizontal Qwiic connector on the back of the board to reduce the amount of soldering on the board. This sensor also features a unique lens that allows the laser to pass through the enclosure to take measurements. Typical applications include indoor air quality monitors, smart thermostats, smart air purifiers, and wearables.Features
