KY-036 Metal Touch Sensor Module

KY-036 metal touch sensor - is a type of switch that triggers whenever the metal spike of the sensor is touched by a conducting body like our body. This sensor has three functional components on its board. This is the sensor unit at the front of the module, which physically measures the current environment and outputs it as an analog signal to the second unit, the amplifier. This amplifies the signal depending on the resistor set on the rotational potentiometer and directs it to the analog output of the module.

Technical Specification:

• Main chip: LM393
• Working voltage: 5V
• PCB Color: Red
• Size: 43mm*16mm*15mm (L*W*H)

 Features:

• Low cost, Low Power Device
• Adjustable Sensitivity with onboard potentiometer
• Digital and Analog Output
• Adjustable sensitivity
• Single-channel signal output

Applications:

• Can be used in industry as the exact position of the metal tool in CNC or Lathe machines or the robotic arms in automated systems is very important and essential to ensure your program is working correctly and counting the number of parts on a production belt is necessary to keep the data logged
