Description

The MS58-3216J68U4 is a highly integrated, low-power microwave radar sensor module operating in the 5.8GHz ISM band. Utilizing the Doppler effect, it detects motion by analyzing frequency shifts between transmitted and reflected high-frequency electromagnetic waves. Its SoC-based architecture incorporates signal processing, filtering, and an LDO, enabling direct sensing signal output and robust performance in electrically noisy environments.

Designed for continuous operation, the module’s sub-70µA current draw makes it ideal for solar-powered or battery-driven applications. The sensor’s signal can penetrate common non-metallic enclosures, allowing for concealed installation behind panels, glass, or acrylic, which is critical for aesthetic and protected designs in consumer electronics and smart building systems.

Key Features

  • 5.8GHz Doppler Radar Core: Provides high-resolution motion detection unaffected by ambient light or temperature.
  • Ultra-Low Power Operation: Average current consumption below 70µA, with deep sleep capabilities extending battery life.
  • Integrated Signal Conditioning: On-chip SoC processor with multi-stage filtering for reliable sensing in complex RF environments.
  • Wide Voltage Supply with LDO: Built-in regulator supports a broad input range from 3.3V to 12V DC.
  • Compact & Durable Build: Miniaturized 32x16mm PCB with a planar antenna, resistant to environmental factors.
  • Flexible Detection Parameters: Sensing distance and signal delay time are software-configurable via host microcontroller.
  • Standard Digital Interfaces: Supports I2C, SPI, and UART communication for easy daisy-chaining and system integration.
  • Non-Metallic Penetration: Effective detection through glass, plastic, and acrylic enclosures for hidden installations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the MS58-3216J68U4 sensor?

The module features a built-in LDO regulator, supporting a wide input voltage range from 3.3V to 12V DC. This makes it compatible with common 3.3V and 5V microcontroller logic levels as well as higher voltage battery packs, providing significant design flexibility.

How do I communicate with this radar sensor module?

The module supports multiple standard digital interfaces: I2C, SPI, and UART (serial). You can select the preferred protocol for your application. The I2C interface allows for easy daisy-chaining with other sensors, while UART provides simple serial command and control integration.

Can this sensor detect motion through walls or enclosures?

Yes, the 5.8GHz microwave signal can penetrate non-metallic materials such as glass, acrylic, plastic, and thin wooden panels. This allows for concealed installation inside product housings. It cannot detect through metallic shields or highly conductive materials.

What is the typical power consumption for battery-operated projects?

The sensor is designed for ultra-low power operation, with an average current consumption of less than 70 microamps (µA). This extremely low draw makes it ideal for solar-powered devices, battery-backed IoT nodes, and any application where long-term, unattended operation is required.

Is the detection range and sensitivity configurable?

Yes, key parameters like the sensing distance (within the 3-4m hardware limit) and the output signal delay time after detection are software-configurable. These settings are typically adjusted by sending configuration commands over the I2C, SPI, or UART interface from your host microcontroller.
