Ultraviolet detection module UV Sensor Breakout - ML8511 UVB Ray detection module Ray detection module. ML8511 is an easy to use ultraviolet sensor. The MP8511 UV(ultraviolet) the working principle of the sensor is in the output analog signal and UV light that is detected is proportional to the amount of output. This breakthrough can be very convenient to create an alert sunburn users or detect the UV index, because it relates to the climatic conditions of the equipment.
The sensor detects the most effective light for 280-390nm. It is classified as in ultraviolet (burning rays) spectrum and most of the UVA (Tan ray) part of the spectrum. It outputs an analog voltage ultraviolet intensity is linearly related to the measured (mW / cm2).If the microcontroller you can do an analog voltage conversion, you can detect the UV level!
