Le tableau à clic PIR™ est un capteur pyroélectrique qui génère une tension lorsqu'il est exposé au rayonnement infrarouge émis par des corps vivants. Il est équipé du PL-N823-01, un capteur infrarouge de KEMET qui utilise l'effet pyroélectrique de la céramique en absorbant les rayons infrarouges émis par le corps humain, tandis que la lentille de Fresnel en plastique blanc recouvrant le capteur filtre la lumière visible. Cela détecte la signature infrarouge naturelle produite par les humains. Cependant, il peut également détecter les rayons infrarouges sans utiliser de lentilles.
The PIR sensor is a kind of thermal sensor which is able to detect the movement of a heat source. As the most general heat source in indoor environments, humans with motion can be detected by PIR sensors. However, this sensor cannot detect static human subjects. We call this sensing mode "passive sensing", since the sensor itself is passively triggered by moving subjects. It is important to state that the sensor can be used for developing various applications, the typical ones including human presence detection sensing for energy saving functions in: contactless switching, building or office automation equipment, home applicances, lighting, display products, air-conditioners, TV, PC monitors, rice cookers and many more.
How Does The PIR Click Board™ Work?
The main component of the PIR Click Board™ is the PL-N823-01 –a PL Pyroelectric Infrared Sensors from KEMET. Due to the absence of a lens, KEMET's Pyro Sensor is low profile, as it does not protrude, which makes it ideal for gathering visual requirements. With KEMET's proprietary piezoelectric ceramic material and element structure of the Pyroelectric Infrared Sensor, you can also detect humans through glass or resin. This allows more freedom in the design of the outer appearance of the end product.
Such a sensor system aims to provide the reliable human detection and human scenario perception. In order to achieve this goal, a conditioning sensing circuit with a low-noise signal amplifier with adjusted amplification gain is developed. Besides, the gain amplification, the onboard circuit serves also as a proprietary 1Hz signal filter, which ensures rejection of all unwanted components of the signal. That way, a reliable movement detection system is achieved. The output signal is routed to the AN pin of the mikroBUS™, as well as to the MCP3221 – a 12-Bit A/D Converter with I2C Interface, from microchip. That way, the user can choose whether to read the output signal via the I2C interface, or directly, by reading the voltage on the analog pin of the used MCU.
Some of the numerous benefits of using this particular click, equiped with the PL-N823-01 infrared sensor, are a wide view angle up to 60 degrees ether way, detection possible through glass or resin, low power consumption, excellent radio wave performance in high-frequency band, a compact and low profile (5.0x4.8x1.7mm) and all of this is possible without a lens because it is not required. The low power consumption that we are speaking of is down in the μA range. When it comes to the performance characteristics, the operating temperature should be between -40C to +70C and the storage temperature should be between -40C to +85C.
The PIR Click Board™ offers a selection between 3.3V and 5V operation, with the onboard SMD jumper, labelled as PWR SEL. This allows both 3.3V and 5V MCUs to be interfaced with this Click board™.
The attached device datasheet contains an in-depth explanation of all the mentioned functions. However, MikroE provides a library with functions that make the final code clean and readable, simplifying working with this device. These functions internally employ the aforementioned communication mechanism and expose only a simple and clean interface to the user. The provided example code demonstrates the functionality of these functions. It can be used as a reference point for a custom development.

Software Support
We provide a library for the PIR Click Board™ on our LibStock page, as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Library Description
Library contains function for reading single ADC conversion data Library contains function for reading single ADC conversion converted to miliVolts Library contains function for scaling ADC data to value in desired range Library contains constant for device address
Key Functions
uint16_t pir_getAdc( void )- reads single ADC conversion datafloat pir_getMiliVolt( uint16_t refVoltage )- reads 12bit ADC data and convets it to miliVoltsfloat pir_scaleResults( uint16_t inVal, uint16_t outMin, uint16_t outMax )- scales ADC conversion data (inVal) to desired range (from outMin to outMax) and returns scaled data (outVal)
Example Description
The application is composed of three sections :
- System Initialization - Initializes LOG, I2C and AN pin as input
- Application Initialization - Initializes I2C driver
- Application Task - Reads ADC data, converts it to miliVolts and logs scaled value in miliVolts
void applicationTask( )
{
adcVal = pir_getAdc( );
mapOut = pir_scaleResults( adcVal, 0, 3303 );
FloatToStr(mapOut, text);

Additional Notes and Information
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 click or RS232 click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all MikroElektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
MIKROSDK
The PIR Click Board™ is supported with mikroSDK - MikroElektronika Software Development Kit. To ensure proper operation of mikroSDK compliant Click board™ demo applications, mikroSDK should be downloaded from the LibStock and installed for the compiler you are using.
