DFRobot Vibration Sensor Module

This vibration module from DFRobot detects shocks with an induction coil in the housing. When vibration is detected, the output pulls LOW and an LED on the housing lights up. The sensitivity is set with a rotary control. The module is supplied with 5 V to 15 V and is suitable for alarm systems and monitoring machines.

Note: If the module is supplied with more than 5 V, measure the voltage at the output before connecting it to a microcontroller.
