    PIR Motion Sensor Module


    Compact and complete, easy to
    use Pyroelectric Infrared (PIR)
    Sensor Module for human body
    detection. Incorporating a Fresnel
    lens and motion detection circuit.
    High sensitivity and low noise.
    Output is a standard 5V active low
    output signal.

    Module provides an optimized


    circuit that will detect motion up to
    6 meters away and can be used in
    burglar alarms and access control
    systems. Inexpensive and easy to
    use, it's ideal for alarm systems,
    motion-activated lighting, holiday
    props, and robotics applications.

    The Output can be connected to microcontroller pin directly to monitor signal or a connected to
    transistor to drive DC loads like a bell, buzzer, siren, relay, opto-coupler (e.g. PC817, MOC3021),
    etc. The PIR sensor and Fresnel lens are fitted onto the the PCB. This enables the board to be
    mounted inside a case with the detecting lens protruding outwards.

    Theory of Operation
    Pyroelectric devices, such as the PIR sensor, have elements made of a crystalline material that
    generates an electric charge when exposed to infrared radiation. The changes in the amount of
    infrared striking the element change the voltages generated, which are measured by an on-board
    amplifier. The device contains a special filter called a Fresnel lens, which focuses the infrared
    signals onto the element. As the ambient infrared signals change rapidly, the on-board amplifier
    trips the output to indicate motion.

    The PIR (Passive Infra-Red) Sensor is a pyroelectric device that detects motion by measuring
    changes in the infrared (heat) levels emitted by surrounding objects. This motion can be detected by
    checking for a sudden change in the surrounding IR patterns. When motion is detected the PIR
    sensor outputs a high signal on its output pin. This logic signal can be read by a microcontroller or
    used to drive a transistor to switch a higher current load.
    Warm up time
    The PIR Sensor requires a ‘warm-up’ time in order to function properly. This is due to the settling
    time involved in ‘learning’ its environment. This could be anywhere from 1-2 Minutes. After this
    warm up time, sensor will be ready to use.
    Pin Definitions
    Pin Name
    +5V VCC Power Supply Positive, Connect to +5V DC regulated power supply
    OUT Output Connect to I/O pin set to INPUT mode of microcontroller (or transistor/MOSFET).
    Output is HIGH when idle (no motion detected). LED is OFF
    Output remains LOW when sensor is triggered. LED is ON
    GND Ground Power Supply Ground: 0V

    Using the Sensor


    • Connect regulated DC power supply of 5 Volts. Black
    OUTPUT STATE LED STATE
    wire is Ground, Next middle wire is Brown which is output
    and Red wire is positive supply. These wires are also LED OFF
    marked on PCB.
    • After powering up, allow startup delay time of 2 minutes
    before using the sensor. The sensor output might
    become LOW once or twice during this period since it
    has to learn about its environment. After 2 minutes, your
    sensor is ready for use.
    • Preset in sensor is for delay time adjustment, Factory
    setting is 2 seconds. It means when a motion is detected,
    the sensor will keep output LOW at least for 2 seconds. It
    is normally not required to adjust this setting. Just in case LED ON
    you need to adjust the delay time, Make note of factory
    setting position, in case you have to revert back to original setting.
    • To test sensor you only need power the sensor by connect two wires +5V and GND. You can
    leave the output wire as it is. When LED is off the output is at 5V, means no motion detected.
    • Walk in front of sensor and the LED will lit up and output becomes 0V. The output is active
    low and can be given directly to microcontroller for interfacing applications.

    Range of Operation
    The PIR Sensor has a range of approximately 20 feet(6 meters). This can vary with environmental
    conditions. The sensor is designed to adjust to slowly changing conditions that would happen
    normally as the day progresses and the environmental conditions change, but responds by making
    its output high when sudden changes occur, such as when there is motion.

    This device is designed for indoor use. Operation outside or in extreme temperatures may affect
    stability negatively.
    Due to the high sensitivity of PIR sensor device, it is not recommended to use the module in the
    following or similar condition.
    • In rapid environmental changes & strong shock or vibration
    • In a place where there are obstructing material (eg. glass) through which IR cannot pass
    within detection area.
    • Exposed to direct sun light or direct wind from a heater or air condition

    Application: Motion Activated Light


    The PIR modules produce a
    momentary output when they detect a
    movement. This momentary output is
    not enough if you wish to use these
    modules for room lights. The Circuit
    proposed here is RC combination with
    transistor as a switch.

    The RC combination proposed here


    should give a ON time of between 7-8
    minutes. you can try different values of
    RC connected to base of first transistor
    to get the desired ON time.

    Since this circuit also has a relay which you can use to switch on/off room lights, which also means
    dealing with high voltage electricity, you should be very careful while connecting this circuit to Mains
    voltage.
