Description

The ACEBOTT HC-SR04 operates on the principle of ultrasonic echo-ranging. The module emits a 40 kHz ultrasonic pulse and measures the time taken for the echo to return from an object. This time-of-flight data is processed to calculate the distance with high resolution. The sensor’s integrated signal conditioning circuitry provides a clean, digital-compatible pulse output for straightforward interfacing.

Engineered for robust performance across an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, this module is suitable for use in varied environmental conditions. Its low power consumption and fast response time make it an efficient choice for battery-powered or continuous monitoring applications in robotics, industrial automation, and IoT sensing nodes.

Key Features

  • High-precision ultrasonic ranging with 0.1 cm (1 mm) resolution.
  • Broad operating voltage range of 3.3V to 5V DC for flexible system integration.
  • Wide temperature operating range from -40°C to +85°C ensures reliability in harsh environments.
  • Compact PCB footprint (21.5mm x 49mm) and lightweight construction for space-constrained designs.
  • Standard 40 kHz ultrasonic frequency ensures compatibility with common libraries and minimal acoustic interference.
  • Easy-plug connector design simplifies wiring and prototyping with popular development platforms.
  • Low power consumption suitable for portable and battery-operated devices.

Applications

  • Obstacle avoidance and navigation systems for mobile robots and drones.
  • Precise object distance measurement in automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and industrial automation.
  • Liquid level sensing and tank fill monitoring in storage and process control.
  • Proximity detection and presence sensing for security systems and interactive installations.
  • Parking assistance and blind-spot monitoring prototypes for automotive electronics.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the HC-SR04 sensor?

The ACEBOTT HC-SR04 module operates on a DC supply voltage from 3.3V to 5V. This dual-voltage compatibility allows direct connection to 5V Arduino boards as well as 3.3V logic systems like ESP32, Raspberry Pi (with level shifting), and STM32 microcontrollers without requiring an additional voltage regulator.

How do I wire and interface the HC-SR04 with an Arduino?

Connect the module's VCC pin to 5V, GND to ground, the Trig pin to a digital output on the Arduino, and the Echo pin to a digital input. The Arduino sends a 10µs high pulse to the Trig pin to initiate a measurement, then reads the duration of the high pulse returned on the Echo pin. Standard libraries simplify calculating the distance from this pulse width.

What is the minimum and maximum measurable distance?

The sensor has a blind zone of less than 3 cm, meaning objects closer than this distance may not be detected reliably. The effective measurement range is from approximately 2 cm up to 400 cm (4 meters) under ideal conditions with good acoustic reflectivity. Maximum range can be affected by target material, angle, and ambient noise.

Can this sensor be used outdoors or in wet conditions?

The standard HC-SR04 module is not waterproof or rated for outdoor use. The transducer elements can be affected by moisture, dust, and direct rain. For outdoor or damp environments, a protective enclosure or a specialized waterproof ultrasonic sensor variant (often with a sealed transducer) is recommended to ensure reliable operation.
