Overview
The RCWL-0516 is particularly suitable as an alternative to using a PIR motion sensor.
When it detects a moving object, the output changes from a low logic level to a high level (3.3 volts). Appropriately interfaced (Arduino, Fishino or other), it can be used for the automatic opening of electric doors and gates, automatic lighting.
Detection range is about 9 meters.
Tech specs
- Power supply: from 4 volts to 28 volts
- Consumption: typical 2.8 mA; max. 3 mA
- Detection distance: from 5 to 9 meters
- Transmission power: typical 20 mW; max. 30 mW
- Output voltage and current: 3.2-3.4 volts - 100 mA
- Operating temperature: from -20°C to +80°C
- Pin definition: 3V3: 3.3 volt output voltage
- GND: negative power supply
- OUT: when it detects a moving object, it changes from a low level to a high level (3.3 volts)
- VIN: positive power supply from 4 volts to 28 volts
- CDS: if kept low, less than 0.7 volts, the output will always be low even in the presence of motion

Automatic School Bell Prototype
Project Tutorial by ballieducation
hello, students! Today, I'm excited to introduce you to our new Automatic School Bell prototype. In addition to the Arduino board, LCD display, RTC module, and push buttons, we've added an 8x8 LED matrix display. This will show us the current period throughout the day.
