## Description

The SparkFun 170uA PIR Breakout Starter Kit comes with everything you need to get started using Passive Infrared (PIR) sensors. PIR sensors are great for detecting motion in a small area around the sensor. The 170µA SparkFun EKMC4607112K PIR Breakout is a simple board equipped with an EKM-series PIR sensor from Panasonic®. The EKM-series PIR sensors are optimized for small movements to offer motion-sensing options for continuously powered applications. PIR sensors do not return specific distance data but instead monitor for IR light coming from objects in their field of view and will activate their signal when motion is detected in their sensing area. This makes them perfect for applications such as building automation for energy saving, automated on/off lighting control, security, appliances, and IoT. This PIR sensor offers digital output across 32 zones at 5m detection distance with 90° x 90° detection area. Additionally, the PIR in this kit already has headers soldered on making it easier to get started. This kit also includes a SparkFun RedBoard Qwiic, a mini breadboard, a 3-pack of jumper wires, and a reversible USB-A to Micro-B cable. Note: The sensitivity of passive infrared sensors is influenced by environmental conditions, so a performance evaluation test under representative conditions is recommended.
