Ultrasonic Sensor GH-311

The GH-311 sensor works by transmitting an ultrasonic (well above human hearing range) burst and providing an output pulse that corresponds to the time required for the burst echo to return to the sensor.

By measuring the echo pulse width, the distance to target can easily be calculated        

1、Specification

1、Voltage : 6-12V(DC)

2、Current : max 2mA

3、Output Signal : 0-5V (Output high when obstacle in range)

4、Sentry Angle : max 15 degree

5、Sentry Distance : 2mm-8000mm

6、Frequency : 40Khz.

7、Pin : 3pin

2、Usage

Supply module with 6-12V, the output will be 5V while obstacle in range, or 0V if not.

The out pin of this module is used as a switching output when anti-theft module, and without the feet when ranging modules,

Note : the module should be inserted in the circuit before been power, which avoid producing high level of misoperation ；if not, then power again.

Module Working Principle:

(1) Adopt IO trigger through supplying at least 10us sequence of high level signal,

(2) The module automatically send eight 40khz square wave and automatically detect whether receive the returning pulse signal,

(3) If there is signals returning, through outputting high level and the time of high level continuing is the time of that from the ultrasonic transmitting to  receiving.

Test distance = (high level time * sound velocity (340M/S) / 2,

3、Advantage

Simple，easy to adopt in system ;  Beam angle to avoid disruptions;Endurable.

4、Notice

This module can not be used for distance measurement.
