Pmod MAXSONAR: Maxbotix Ultrasonic Range Finder Module

The Pmod MAXSONAR is a single-transducer ultrasonic range finder that uses the MaxBotix® LV-MaxSonar®-EZ1™. Users can measure how far away an object is with an accuracy within 1 inch to over 20 feet away. Information is sent in a variety of ways including UART, PWM, and analog signals.

Features

• Ultrasonic range finder with effective detection range of 6 in - 255 in (15 cm - 648 cm)
• Detect object distance with 1.0 in (2.54 cm) resolution up to 20 ft away
• Continuous measurement (free run) operation
• Three options for sending range data: UART, analog and PWM
• Small PCB size for flexible designs 0.9 in ? 0.8 in (2.3 cm ? 2.0 cm)
• 6-pin Pmod connector with UART interface
• Library and example code available in resource center
