GYML8511 ANALOG OUTPUT ULTRA-VIOLET LIGHT SENSOR MODULE

GYML8511 Analog Output UltraViolet Light Sensor Module is an easy to use ultraviolet light sensor. The ML8511 Sensor works by outputting an analog signal in relation to the amount of detected UV light . This breakout can be very handy in creating devices that warn the user of sunburn or detect the UV index as it relates to weather conditions.

This sensor detects 280-390 nm light most effectively. This is categorized as part of the UVB (burning rays) spectrum and most of the UVA (tanning rays) spectrum. It outputs a analog voltage that is linearly related to the measured UV intensity (mW/cm2). Simply connect the output of the module to an ADC channel of microcontroller to read UV Light intensity.
