Description

The MS10-1616S26M4 is a miniaturized 10GHz microwave radar module based on the Doppler effect, designed for precise motion sensing. Its high-frequency operation and integrated antenna provide reliable detection unaffected by ambient light, dust, noise, or environmental factors like temperature and humidity.

This module supports configurable sensing parameters and output timing via its communication interfaces, offering a sensing radius of up to 4 meters at a mounting height of 3 meters. Its robust construction and compliance with FCC, CE, and RoHS standards ensure suitability for commercial and industrial integration.

Key Features

  • High-performance 10GHz Doppler radar with a ±60° antenna beam angle.
  • Exceptionally compact form factor (16mm x 16mm) with integrated planar microstrip antenna.
  • Dual power modes optimize energy use for battery-powered or always-on applications.
  • Material penetration capability for detection behind thin acrylic, glass, or plastic enclosures.
  • Standard I2C and UART digital interfaces for easy daisy-chaining and parameter configuration.
  • Immune to environmental interference from light, sound, airflow, and particulates.
  • Complies with international certification standards including FCC, CE, SRRC, and RoHS.
  • Configurable sensing output duration (default 2 seconds) and trigger logic.

Applications

  • Presence detection for smart lighting and building automation behind diffusers.
  • Intrusion and motion sensing in security systems within confined enclosures.
  • Touchless activation for appliances, dispensers, and interactive kiosks.
  • Occupancy monitoring in IoT devices for energy management.
  • Proximity triggering in robotics and automated guided vehicles (AGVs).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage and logic level for the MS10-1616S26M4 module?

The module requires a 3.3V DC power supply. All digital interfaces, including I2C, UART, and GPIO, operate at 3.3V logic levels. Ensure your microcontroller or host system is compatible with 3.3V logic to communicate correctly and avoid potential damage.

How do I configure the module and adjust parameters like sensing distance or output time?

Configuration is performed via the I2C or UART serial interfaces. You can send specific commands to adjust parameters such as the sensing sensitivity (affecting the 4m max range), the output trigger duration (default 2 seconds), and to switch between normal and ultra-low power modes. Refer to the manufacturer's communication protocol documentation for command details.

Can this radar sensor detect motion through walls or enclosures?

The 10GHz microwave signal can penetrate thin, non-metallic materials such as acrylic, glass, plastic, and drywall. However, it cannot penetrate metal or thick, dense materials. This makes it ideal for concealed installation behind product casings, diffuser panels, or thin decorative covers.

What is the difference between the normal and ultra-low power consumption modes?

Normal mode provides continuous, full-performance sensing. Ultra-low power mode periodically cycles the radar to conserve energy, which is critical for battery-operated devices. The trade-off is a slight increase in response latency. The mode can be selected via software command over I2C/UART.
