High Accuracy I2C MAX30105 Particle Optical Sensor Photodetectors Oximeter Module

The MAX30105 is an integrated particle-sensing module. It includes internal LEDs, photodetectors, optical elements, and low-noise electronics with ambient light rejection. The MAX30105 provides a complete system solution to ease the design-in process of smoke detection applications including fire alarms. Due to its extremely small size, the MAX30105 can also be used as a smoke detection senor for mobile and wearable devices. The MAX30105 operates on a single 1.8V power supply and a separate 5.0V power supply for the internal LEDs. It communicates through a standard I 2 C-compatible inter- face. The module can be shut down through software with zero standby current, allowing the power rails to remain powered at all times.

This sensor has three LEDs—green, red, and infra-red—and photodetectors that can be used together to detect the amount of light reflected back to the sensor. A technique called photoplethysmography (PPG) can be used to detect the change in color of your skin with each beat of your heart when the sensor is pressed against your fingertip.

Note: This sensor should not be used for medical diagnosis, as the basis for a real smoke or fire detector, or in life-critical situations. It’s for fun/novelty use only, so bear that in mind while using it.
