Infrared Proximity	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.
  • Arduino Website
• Download the demo codes, unzip them, and find the Arduino examples.
• Open the Infrared_Proximity_Sensor.ino file by the Arduino IDE.

• 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

• When a barrier is placed near the sensor, the signal indicator will turn on or else turn off.
• The serial output will change according to the distance between the module and the barrier.
