Description
The Grove module based on the SI1145. Multi-channel, digital light sensor to detect UV light, visible light and infrared light. It is working with voltage from 3 V to 5.5 V. It communicates using the I2C interface. The sensor can be used to detect harmful solar radiation. The kit includes a cable adapted to Seeedstudio Base Shield v2.0.
The module has a 4-pin cable for the Base Shield v2
Connection
The sensor communicates with the microcontroller through the I2C interface. Grove connector has the following pins:
| Pin | Description |
|---|---|
| GND | The ground of the system. |
| VCC | Supply voltage - 2.7 V to 5.5 V. |
| SDA | Data line of I2C interface. |
| SCL | Data line of I2C interface. |
|
The product is compatible with Arduino The manufacturer provides a user manual and library for Arduino. |
