Connect to Arduino UNO
MQ135 Arduino Description
VCC 5V Power input
GND GND Ground
AOUT A0 Analog data output
DOUT D2 Digital data output

Examples

  • Please download and install Arduino IDE to your PC.
  • Download the demo codes, unzip and find the Arduino examples
  • Open the Gas_Sensor.ino file by the Arduino IDE
MQ5 Arduino 1.jpg
  • Build and upload the codes to the UNO board
  • After uploading, you can open the Serial Monitor of IDE and check the data

Expected result

  • The sensor needs to preheat for about a minute to heat the internal sensitive materials of the sensor.
  • Put the sensor inside the device containing sensitive gas, and the indicator on the module lights up. The indicator goes off when the sensor is removed from the device.
