TE Connectivity’s (TE) AmbiMate Sensor Module MS4 Development Kits
allow a developer, with use of some downloadable code, to connect to
either a Raspberry Pi or Arduino and start collecting data within 30 minutes.
AmbiMate sensor module MS4 series provides an application specific set
of sensors on a ready to attach PCB assembly for easy integration into a
host product. Design resources are freed and time to market accelerated
by integrating the MS4 series pre-engineered, four core sensor solution for
Motion / Light / Temperature / Humidity into your next product.
Other MS4 series sensor modules include VOC (Volatile Organic Compound),
eCO2 (equivalent carbon dioxide) and sound detection. Add the capability
to monitor air quality through the capture of VOC concentrations. Select an
MS4 series with a microphone to augment motion detection or to listen for
sound events.
All MS4 series sensor modules oer the flexibility of sharing a common seven
position connection. This allows the designer to layout a single PCB footprint
accommodating all the available sensor configurations at production.
Benefits

time to market is accelerated
Simplicity of popular I2C
communication protocol
Event out pin for real time motion
detection
Space saving compact design
Multiple attach methods to accommodate
your application need
One footprint allows multiple sensor
configurations & flexibility in design
All the parts required to interface with a
Raspberry Pi and Arduino
