Description

The DFRobot Gravity URM09 Ultrasonic Distance Sensor utilizes ultrasonic time-of-flight (ToF) principles for precise, non-contact ranging. Its integrated hardware and signal conditioning provide stable measurements with a resolution of 1 cm across a broad operating temperature from -10°C to +70°C, ensuring reliability in variable environments.

Designed for streamlined system integration, the sensor consolidates trigger and echo functions onto a single I/O pin, reducing wiring complexity for embedded platforms like Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi. The module’s low power consumption (under 20 mA) and compact form factor make it suitable for battery-powered robotics, automation, and smart device applications.

Key Features

  • High-precision ultrasonic ranging with ±1% accuracy and 1 cm resolution.
  • Single-pin control merges trigger input and echo output for simplified microcontroller interfacing.
  • Broad voltage compatibility from 3.3V to 5.5V DC supports flexible power supply design.
  • PH2.0-3P Gravity interface enables plug-and-play connectivity with DFRobot ecosystem shields and boards.
  • Robust performance across an industrial temperature range of -10°C to +70°C.
  • Compact PCB design (45mm x 22mm) for space-constrained installations.
  • Optimized for low current consumption (<20 mA), ideal for portable and embedded systems.

Applications

  • Robotics obstacle avoidance and navigation systems.
  • Industrial automation for object presence detection and level monitoring.
  • Smart parking sensors and vehicle proximity detection.
  • DIY and educational projects for Arduino and Raspberry Pi-based ranging.
  • Embedded systems requiring compact, low-power distance measurement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the DFRobot URM09 sensor?

The URM09 operates from 3.3V to 5.5V DC, making it directly compatible with both 3.3V logic microcontrollers (like ESP32 or Raspberry Pi) and standard 5V Arduino boards without requiring level shifting.

How do I wire the URM09 with its single I/O port?

The sensor uses a single digital pin for both triggering the measurement and receiving the echo pulse. Connect the signal wire to any digital I/O pin on your microcontroller. Your code must handle setting the pin as an output to send a trigger pulse, then quickly switching it to an input to read the echo duration.

What is the maximum update rate or ranging frequency?

The URM09 can perform distance measurements at a maximum frequency of 25 Hz. This provides a fast enough response for real-time applications like robotic navigation or dynamic object tracking.

Is this sensor suitable for outdoor use?

While the sensor operates from -10°C to +70°C, it lacks a specified IP rating for water or dust resistance. For reliable outdoor use, consider adding a protective enclosure to shield the exposed PCB and transducer from direct moisture and debris.
