Description

The Grove Rotary Angle Sensor is a precision potentiometer-based module that translates angular displacement into a proportional analog voltage signal. Its 300-degree rotational range and linear output curve make it suitable for applications requiring precise manual input or position feedback, such as volume controls, menu navigation, and servo motor calibration.

The module is built around a robust 10 kΩ potentiometer, providing a stable resistive divider network. The output signal ranges from 0V to the supply voltage (Vcc), typically 3.3V or 5V, making it directly compatible with the analog inputs of most microcontrollers. Its integration into the Grove ecosystem eliminates the need for soldering or complex wiring, accelerating prototype development.

Key Features

  • 300-degree mechanical rotation with linear analog output.
  • Integrated 10 kΩ potentiometer for reliable signal generation.
  • Standard 4-pin Grove interface for quick connection to base shields.
  • Wide operating voltage range from 4.75V to 5.25V.
  • Compact PCB design with mounting holes for secure installation.
  • Optimized performance-to-cost ratio for educational and hobbyist projects.

Applications

  • Manual control input for audio mixers, lighting dimmers, and parameter adjustment panels.
  • Position feedback for robotic joint angles or DIY rotary encoder simulation.
  • User interface element for embedded systems and interactive prototypes.
  • Educational tool for teaching analog-to-digital conversion and sensor interfacing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the output signal of this rotary sensor?

The sensor outputs an analog voltage signal that varies linearly from 0V to your supply voltage (Vcc) as the shaft is rotated through its 300-degree range. This signal can be read directly by an microcontroller's ADC pin.

Is this sensor compatible with 3.3V systems like the Raspberry Pi?

Yes. While the typical operating voltage is 5V, the output range is 0V to Vcc. If you power the module with a 3.3V supply, the analog output will correspondingly range from 0V to 3.3V, making it safe and compatible with 3.3V logic devices like the Raspberry Pi.

How do I connect this Grove module to an Arduino?

Connect the module's 4-pin Grove cable to an Analog port (labeled A0, A1, etc.) on a Grove Base Shield attached to your Arduino. No additional wiring is required. In your code, use the analogRead() function on the corresponding pin to get the position value.
