Product Description
Product Description
The Waveshare Flame Sensor flame sensor module 9521 is a compact sensor module for detecting flame radiation in the infrared range. It provides both an analog signal path and a digital switching output, allowing use in simple threshold monitoring as well as in microcontroller and embedded signal-processing applications.
The Flame Sensor variant is intended for direct use in electronics projects, experimental setups, and educational environments. An adjustable threshold allows the digital switching point to be matched to the application. The module connects through a 4-pin interface for integration with common controller and evaluation platforms.
Technical Features
- Flame detection module based on infrared sensing
- Analog output for sensor signal measurement
- Digital output for switching or threshold detection
- Adjustable threshold via onboard trimmer
- 4-pin interface connection
- Compact module format for laboratory, prototyping, and embedded use
- Suitable for interfacing with microcontroller systems
Application Areas
Typical application areas include flame detection in demonstration systems, experimental safety-related sensing, training labs, and general sensor evaluation with microcontrollers. The module can be used in test fixtures, condition monitoring setups, and simple detection systems where an IR-based flame signal is required either as an analog value or as a digital state.
Because both analog and digital outputs are available, the module is suitable for straightforward threshold detection as well as software-based signal evaluation. This makes it applicable to rapid functional prototypes and technical experiments with external signal processing.
