The MCU-3935 module integrates the AS3935 Franklin IC, a fully integrated lightning sensor that detects cloud-to-ground and intra-cloud discharges. It employs advanced signal processing to differentiate between actual lightning events and man-made electromagnetic noise, ensuring reliable storm detection. The module outputs strike distance estimation and event energy data via its configurable I2C or SPI bus.
Designed for robust operation, the sensor functions across an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for harsh outdoor environments. Its ultra-low power consumption (typically 50mW) and compact PCB footprint enable deployment in portable weather stations, remote monitoring systems, and educational atmospheric science projects.
