The S12SD Ultraviolet Sensor Module is a specialized sensor designed for detecting and measuring ultraviolet (UV) radiation levels. It is particularly sensitive to the UV-A and UV-B ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Here are some key features and details about the S12SD Ultraviolet Sensor Module:

Name: S12SD ultraviolet sensor module sunlight intensity detection sensor
SKU: 470134

Features and Specifications:

UV Detection: The sensor module is equipped with a photodiode that is specifically designed to detect UV radiation. It generates an electrical signal proportional to the intensity of UV light.

UV Index Measurement: The sensor can be used to measure the UV index, which is an indicator of the intensity of UV radiation. This information is important for assessing the risk of sunburn and skin damage.

Analog Output: The module typically provides an analog voltage output that varies with the UV intensity. This analog voltage can be read by an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) on a microcontroller.

Operating Voltage: The module operates within a specified voltage range, usually compatible with common microcontroller platforms like Arduino.

Sensitivity Range: The sensor is designed to be particularly sensitive to UV-A and UV-B radiation, which are the ranges most relevant to human health and sun exposure.

Common Applications:

Sun Protection: The sensor can be integrated into devices that provide sun protection advice, such as wearable devices or smartphone apps, to alert users about the level of UV exposure.

Skin Care and Cosmetics: In the cosmetics industry, UV sensors can be used to monitor the effectiveness of sunscreen products and provide recommendations for application.

Environmental Monitoring: UV sensors are used in environmental monitoring systems to track UV radiation levels for research and analysis purposes.

Automotive: UV sensors can be used in vehicles to provide alerts to drivers about the level of UV exposure, especially in convertible cars or vehicles with large sunroofs.
