It features both analog and digital outputs, making it easy to interface with Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi.
The sensor uses a built-in heating element with a cycling method (low and high temperature) for accurate CO detection. It includes an onboard potentiometer for threshold adjustment and an LED indicator for digital alerts.
Commonly used in home CO detectors, industrial safety alarms, and IoT-based environmental monitoring projects.
