RAKwireless WisBlock Vibration Sensor ANT-801S RAK12015 Module

The RAK12015 provides a digital square wave output on its AIN1 pin. When the integrated ANT-801S sensor detects a vibration or shock exceeding its threshold, it generates a clean logic-level pulse. This signal can be directly read by a microcontroller's digital input or counter peripheral for event detection and logging.

The module is designed for the RAKwireless WisBlock ecosystem. It operates on a 3.3V DC supply provided through the WisBlock IO slot on a compatible Base board. For interfacing, simply plug the module into an IO slot; the square wave output will be available on the assigned AIN1 pin of the WisBlock connector, which routes to your WisBlock Core MCU.

Yes. The ANT-801S sensor is connected to the main RAK12015 PCB via a J2 connector. This allows you to detach the sensor and mount it remotely using wires, enabling optimal vibration pickup at a specific location while keeping the electronics in a more protected or accessible enclosure.

Yes. The module's 3.3V operation and compatibility with the WisBlock Core's power management features make it well-suited for low-power designs. The WisBlock Core can put the sensor system into deep sleep and only activate it periodically or based on an interrupt, significantly extending battery life in field deployments.
