QHow would I amplify the signal?
AHi, thanks for your question. We advise you to review the manufacturers data sheet for details, which is available here: http://www.rapidonline.com/pdf/61-1466.pdf. Unfortunately we are unable to offer any design service.

QAfter amplyfing the signal what would I have to do?
AIf you are just detecting movement then I would suggest a module with the associated circuits built in like product code: 61-1516, this just needs 5V power. The output is high or low depending on whether something is detected.

QWhat resistors will i use on each leg for a 18M PICAXE? Would I need to use any capcacitors?
AYou will need to amplify the signal first but please refer to figure 2 of the technical datasheet for accurate circuit information: http://www.rapidonline.com/pdf/61-1466.pdf


Question by Liam
23rd April 2012

QWould this be suitable to use in a potential divider to switch on a microcontoller input when it senses motion in front of it? Thanks
AThanks for your enquiry Liam. I do not believe this would be suitable for use in the circuit you've mentioned.


Question by Anon
23rd April 2012

QWhat value resistors are needed on each leg?
AThanks for your enquiry. It would depend on the supply voltage. This unit will run to a maximum of 10V DC. Please refer to the product datasheet for full info.


Question by ozzy | Product code: 61-1466
1st March 2012

QWould this sensor be suitable for calculating the distance of an infrared (LED) source, given the output of the sensor?
AThanks for your enquiry. It would only sense a movement selection but could be set up within a set distance so may be suitable dependent but it would not really be able to govern different distances only a set distance


Question by Ben
19th January 2012

Qwhat dose it do
AHi Ben, PIR sensors measure infrared (IR) light radiating from objects in its field of view, so can be used in motion devices.


Question by phil | Product code: 61-1466
18th January 2012

QCan this device directly operate a 2ma piezo buzzer?
AHi Phil, thanks for your question. The device will not activate the buzzer on its own. A circuit is required to measure the difference in voltage / resistance output. For more information please see the data sheet: http://www.rapidonline.com/Electronic-Components/Re200b-p-Pyroelectric-Pir-Sensor-To-5-61-1466/?sid=35a5b932-e69a-459a-8874-dee1dfa7ac06
