MQ-3 Gas Sensor Module - Detect Benzine, CH4, Hexane, LPG & CO
Reliable multi-gas detection module from Tech Depot India, Bengaluru. The MQ-3 sensor module provides accurate analog and digital output for detecting a wide range of combustible and hazardous gases - ideal for safety systems, air quality monitors, and IoT projects.
How It Works
The MQ-3 module uses a tin dioxide (SnO2) semiconductor sensing element. In clean air, SnO2 has high electrical resistance. When target gas molecules come in contact with the heated sensing surface, they reduce the resistance proportionally to the gas concentration. The onboard LM393 comparator converts this into a clean digital signal (DO pin) based on the potentiometer-set threshold, while the raw analog voltage (AO pin) provides continuous concentration data for precise measurement and data logging.
