Piezo Vibration Sensor - Small Horizontal SEN-09198 RoHS

Development Boards Arduino

I just bought several horizontal and vertical vibrations sensors from your company. But how do I connect them to my Arduino Uno board or bread board. Also, any resistors required? Plus, will this code I found on arduino.cc work with these sensors.

const float knockSensor = A0; // not sure if right pin since sensor is 2 pin

float sensorReading = 0;

void setup()

{

Serial.begin(9600);

}

void loop()

{

sensorReading = analogRead(knockSensor);

sensorReading = sensorReading / 100.0;

Serial.println(sensorReading, 2); // 2 digits

delay(100);

}

Second, Google, Google and some more Google is where you will find all your answers.

1st page of a Google search “Piezo Vibration Sensor.” If you notice it didn’t even have “Arduino” in it.

And you will find a manual on the product’s page.
