Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage for this adapter board?

The DFRobot Gravity Adapter is designed for a 5V DC supply, which matches the standard operating voltage of the Sharp Microelectronics GP2Y1010AU0F sensor and most microcontroller development boards like Arduino Uno.

Does this adapter work with both analog and digital outputs simultaneously?

The adapter provides access to both output types from the sensor. You select which signal to use by connecting to the corresponding output pin on the adapter's header. It does not perform simultaneous signal conversion; you use either the analog voltage output or the digital pulse output for your project.

What cables are included, and how do I connect them?

The package includes three pre-installed cables with 2.54mm female connectors. They plug directly onto the header pins on the adapter board, which are clearly labeled for VCC, GND, and the signal outputs (Analog Out and Digital Out), allowing for a secure and organized connection to your main controller board.

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

While the adapter itself is powered by 5V, the digital output signal from the GP2Y1010AU sensor may require level-shifting to be safely read by a 3.3V logic device like a Raspberry Pi. The analog output can typically be connected directly to a 3.3V ADC input, provided the voltage does not exceed 3.3V.

Package Includes

  • 1 x DFRobot Gravity Dust Sensor Adapter Board
