Key Features
- High Sensitivity to Alcohol Vapors: The MQ-3 uses a tin dioxide (SnO2) sensing element that exhibits a significant change in conductivity when exposed to alcohol, providing reliable detection even at low concentrations.
- Dual Output Modes: Analog output (A0) delivers a variable voltage proportional to gas concentration for precise readings, while the digital output (D0) provides a simple HIGH/LOW trigger based on the adjustable threshold - ideal for alarm-based systems.
- Onboard Potentiometer: Fine-tune the digital trigger threshold without any external components, allowing quick calibration for different sensitivity requirements and environments.
- Fast Response & Recovery: Rapid detection response time with quick recovery, making it suitable for real-time monitoring and repeated measurements.
- Wide Detection Range: Covers alcohol concentrations from 0.04 mg/L to 4 mg/L, suitable for everything from trace detection to high-concentration environments.
- Compact Breakout Board: The sensor comes pre-soldered on a convenient PCB module with clearly labeled pins, indicator LEDs, and a mounting hole for easy integration into projects and enclosures.
- Universal Microcontroller Compatibility: Works seamlessly with Arduino Uno/Nano/Mega, ESP32, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi (via external ADC like MCP3008), STM32, and virtually any 5V-compatible microcontroller platform.
- Low Cost, High Value: An extremely affordable sensor module that delivers dependable performance for prototyping, education, and real-world safety applications.
