In this project, we will learn about Knock Sensor or Vibration Sensor (sometimes called as Tap Sensor) and how a Knock Sensor works and finally how to Interface a Knock Sensor with NodeMCU 12E and control a Relay.
Components Required
NodeMCU EsP8266 12E
Knock Sensor KY-031
Knock Sensor KY-031
As the name suggests the Knock Sensor Module produces the Digital output on the detection of Knock i.e. vibration stroke. Further, the change in voltage level can be manipulated to produce the desired output and can be used in a variety of applications.
Specifications and Features:
Detect shocks with the spring and send a signal to Controller Board
Operating voltage: 3.3V-5V
Digital output
Relay 1 channel module
This is 1 Channel 5V Relay Board Module For Arduino PIC AVR DSP ARM. A wide range of microcontrollers such as Arduino, AVR, PIC, ARM and so on can control it. Each one needs 15mA - 20mA driver current and Equipped with high current relay: DC 5V / 10A, AC 250V / 10A Standard interface that can be compatible with microcontroller. Specification and Features : 1 channel relay board Operating Voltage 5V Max Current : 20mA Relay Contact Current Capacity at AC250V: 10A Relay Contact Current Capacity at DC5V: 10A One normally closed contact and one normally open contact Triode drive, increasing relay coil High impedance controller pin Pull-down circuit for avoidance of malfunction Power supply indicator lamp Control indicator lamp Indicator for Relay output status Can Be controlled various appliances & other Equipment With Large current. Standard TTL Level logic controlled (AVR, Arduino, 8051, PIC, ARM) The module is compliant with international safety standards, control and load areas isolation trenches;
