MaxBotix MB1020 LV-MaxSonar-EZ2 Ultrasonic Distance Module - 645cm Range, Analog/PWM/RS232 Output
The MaxBotix MB1020 LV-MaxSonar-EZ2 is a high-performance ultrasonic ranging module offering 645 cm (254 inch) detection with a wide beam pattern. It provides three simultaneous output options—analog voltage, pulse width, and RS232 serial—for seamless integration with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, PLCs, and other 3.3V/5V logic systems.
Features
- Wide beam pattern for superior people detection and area coverage.
- Triple output interface: Analog Voltage, Pulse Width, and RS232 Serial.
- Virtually no dead zone, with objects closer than 15 cm (6 inches) reported as 15 cm.
- Low power operation from 2.5V to 5.5V DC with an average current draw of 2 mA.
- Compact, lightweight PCB design with integrated mounting holes for easy installation.

The MB1020 LV-MaxSonar-EZ2 utilizes advanced ultrasonic pulse-echo technology to provide accurate distance measurements from 15 cm to 645 cm. Its wide 42 kHz transducer beam pattern ensures high sensitivity, making it ideal for detecting people and objects across a broad area. The module features intelligent ringdown learning, allowing it to adapt to its environment and ignore static obstacles present at power-up.
Designed for indoor applications, the sensor outputs real-time range data via three concurrent interfaces, offering maximum flexibility for system integration. The analog output provides a voltage proportional to distance, the pulse width output delivers a variable-width signal, and the RS232 serial port outputs ASCII character data. This multi-output capability simplifies connection to microcontrollers, single-board computers, and industrial data acquisition systems.
