The Sharp Optical Dust Sensor (GP2Y1010AU0F) is especially effective in detecting very fine particles like cigarette smoke, and is commonly used in air purifier systems.

An infrared emitting diode and a phototransistor are diagonally arranged into this device, to allow it to detect the reflected light of dust in air.

The sensor has a very low current consumption (20mA max, 11mA typical), and can be powered with up to 7VDC. The output of the sensor is an analog voltage proportional to the measured dust density, with a sensitivity of 0.5V/0.1mg/m3.

For your convenience, ITEAD ship this sensor with a 6-pin, 1.5mm pitch mating connector and cable.

Routine 1, test code:

ledPower is any digital pin on the arduino connected to Pin 3 on the sensor

delay(1000);

if (dustVal>36.455)

Serial.println((float(dustVal/1024)-0.0356)*120000*0.035);

Test data and air quality control:

3000 + = very poor

1050-3000 = error

300-1050 = General

150-300 = good

75-150 = very good

0-75 = very good

Routine 2, test code: final concentration value.

measurePin = 0; Connect an analog port 0, that is, routine 1 dustPin

ledPower = 2; Connecting digital pins 2

Int samplingTime = 280; //LED turn on period of time was 280 μs

Int deltaTime = 40; //the whole pulse duration of 320 μs. Therefore, we needed to wait 40 μs

digitalWrite(ledPower,LOW); Open internal LED

delayMicroseconds(samplingTime); 280us waiting time after the opening LED

voMeasured = analogRead(measurePin); Read analog values

delayMicroseconds(deltaTime); 40us wait time

digitalWrite(ledPower,HIGH); Turn off LED

0 - 5V mapped to 0 - 1023 integer values

recover voltage

calcVoltage = voMeasured * (5.0 / 1024.0); Analog values into a voltage value

dustDensity = 0.17 * calcVoltage - 0.1; To output the voltage value to a dust density units

Serial.print("Raw Signal Value (0-1023): ");

Serial.print(voMeasured);

Serial.print(" - Voltage: ");

Serial.print(calcVoltage);

Serial.print(" - Dust Density: ");

Serial.println(dustDensity); Final concentration value, output units: mg/m³

Note: the above two of the wiring is the same as the code under test, you don't have to change, and then you can just burn to write code to test.

PIN definition:

Sensor Pin Arduino Pin

1 Vled -> 5V (150ohm resistor)

2 LED-GND -> GND

3 LED -> Digital pin 2

4 S-GND -> GND

5 Vo -> Analog pin 0

6 Vcc -> 5V

LED pins must be adjusted to 1ms cycle, discussed in a data table.

LED appears to be PNP transistors to power on LED pins must accept a lower voltage.
