KY-020 Tilt Switch Sensor Module–NA

Description

About this item:

• Function: It detects tilt by utilizing a small internal metallic ball that completes or breaks an electrical circuit based on the module’s orientation. This provides a basic digital signal (HIGH or LOW) indicating whether a tilt has occurred. It does not measure the degree or angle of tilt.
• Operating Voltage: The module operates within a voltage range of 3.3V to 5V, making it compatible with various microcontrollers like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and ESP32.
• Output: It provides a digital ON/OFF logic (HIGH or LOW) output signal, which can be easily read by microcontrollers.
• Features: It typically includes an LED indicator to show the sensor’s status and often integrates a pull-up resistor on the module for simplified circuit design.
• Applications: Commonly used in basic electronics projects for motion detection, security systems (e.g., detecting unauthorized movement), interactive projects, and tilt-based controls
