GY-ML8511 UV sensor module

Linear Analogue Output Telemetry: Incorporates an ML8511 UV sensor IC that converts ultraviolet intensity directly into an analog voltage output, simplifying UV index mapping.

UVA & UVB Detection Capability: Optimized to detect both UVA (315 nm} - 400 nm) and UVB (280 nm} - 315 nm) light spectrums, making it ideal for solar monitoring networks.

Integrated Power-Down Mode: Features an EN (Enable) pin that allows switching the sensor into an ultra-low power standby state to conserve battery life in remote IoT nodes.

Onboard Voltage Regulator & Reference: Operates with stable signal conditioning and low noise interference across various microcontroller logic levels.

Compact GY-Breakout Form Factor: Compact PCB design equipped with mounting holes and standard 0.1'' (2.54 mm) header pins for easy breadboard and PCB integration.

Housing & Board Material: High-grade FR-4 glass-epoxy PCB with gold/tin-plated contact pads and surface-mount ML8511 IC sensor element.

Technical Specifications:

Operating Supply Voltage: 3.3V - 5.0V DC (onboard 3.3V regulator).

Spectral Sensitivity Range: 280 nm - 390 nm (UVA/UVB spectrum).

Output Signal: Analog Voltage Output.

Color: Blue PCB with Gold Contact Terminals.

Usage Advice: Connect VCC (3.3V-5V), GND, EN (to VCC), and OUT to an analog ADC input pin; orient the sensor clear of protective covers or heavy glass to ensure direct UV exposure.

Maintenance: Keep the optical surface of the IC sensor clean and free of dirt, oil, or fingerprints; wipe gently with a dry microfiber cloth when necessary.

Essential Outdoor Meteorological Sensor: Position as a top-grade UV sensor for smart weather stations, wearable sunlight monitors, solar irradiance tracking, and agricultural UV auditing.

Highlight Linear Voltage Output: Emphasize how direct analog voltage scaling streamlines code integration on Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi without requiring complex software protocol libraries.

Recommended Cross-Sell Add-ons: Pair with S12SD Sunlight Ultraviolet Ray Intensity UV Sensor, ACEBOTT UV Sensor Module Easy-Plug for ESP32/Arduino, OPT3001 Ambient Light Sensor, and ESD antistatic mat 50x40CM PCB Welding Mat.
