Description

The MB1034 LV-ProxSonar-EZ3 utilizes ultrasonic time-of-flight (ToF) principles to detect objects and measure distance. It is specifically calibrated to identify when a target enters a predefined proximity zone (approximately 60 cm), providing a logic-level output, while simultaneously offering continuous RS232 serial output of the precise range to the nearest object. This dual-output capability simplifies system design for applications requiring both presence detection and measurement.

Engineered for low-power operation, the sensor is suitable for battery-powered and portable devices. Its compact, lightweight design facilitates easy integration into embedded systems, robotics platforms, and automated machinery. The sensor’s performance is optimized for detecting people and obstacles within indoor or controlled environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the output options of the MB1034 sensor?

The MB1034 provides two primary output formats. It offers an RS232 serial interface for continuous, precise range data transmission. Additionally, it features programmable high/low logic-level outputs that activate when a target enters the pre-calibrated proximity detection zone (~60 cm), simplifying integration for alarm or control functions.

What is the operating voltage range and power consumption?

This sensor operates from a wide low-voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V DC, making it suitable for 3.3V and 5V logic systems. Its average current consumption is very low at approximately 2mA, enabling use in battery-powered and energy-efficient applications.

How does the proximity detection zone work?

The sensor is factory-calibrated with a detection zone of approximately 60 cm (23.62 inches). When an object enters this zone, the sensor's logic-level output pin changes state (high or low, configurable). This provides a simple digital signal for presence detection, independent of the continuous analog range data available via the RS232 port.

Can multiple MB1034 sensors operate near each other?

Yes, the LV-ProxSonar-EZ3 line supports automatic multi-sensor operation. This feature helps manage acoustic interference when multiple ultrasonic sensors are used in close proximity, allowing them to be synchronized or sequenced to prevent cross-talk and ensure reliable, independent readings from each unit.
