Zio Qwiic Loudness Sensor
Discontinued
The Zio Qwiic Loudness Sensor is an I²C sound level sensor that outputs an ADC value (0–1023) representing the ambient noise level. With a Qwiic connector for solderless plug-and-play wiring, it makes adding sound detection to your project quick and straightforward.
Key Features
- I²C Interface – Qwiic (JST SH 1 mm, 4-pin) for solderless connection
- ADC Output – 0–1023 value representing relative loudness
- Chainable – Daisy-chain with other Qwiic-compatible boards
- No Soldering Required – Plug-and-play via Qwiic cables
Ideal For
- Ambient noise level monitoring
- Sound-reactive lighting and displays
- Arduino and microcontroller sound detection projects
- Environmental sensing stations
Note: The loudness reading depends on the distance between the sound source and the sensor. The ADC output is a relative measurement, not calibrated to a specific dB scale.
