Description
The HC-SR505 is a compact and reliable PIR motion sensor module based on advanced infrared technology.
Designed for ultra-low voltage operation, it’s ideal for battery-powered and space-constrained applications.
This sensor automatically detects human motion and outputs a high signal (3.3V) when triggered.
It remains high during continued movement and switches low once the delay time has passed with no further motion.
