1 Introduction
- The Matrix-MQ-2_Gas_Sensor uses the MQ-2 gas sensor which is sensitive to LPG, i-butane, propane, methane ,alcohol, Hydrogen, smoke and etc and is used to detect multiple gas leakage. This makes it suitable in various applications of gas leak detection.
- The output voltage of the module is positively proportional to the gas concentration.
2 Features
- Standard 3 Pin Interface
- PCB Dimension(mm): 24 x 32
- Pin Description:
| Pin | Description |
| S | GPIO |
| V | Supply Voltage 5V |
| G | Ground |
