 +====== Pmod PIR Reference Manual ======
  
 +The Digilent Pmod PIR (Revision B) is a Passive Infrared Sensor for monitoring movement at low power. With the [[https://na.industrial.panasonic.com/products/sensors/sensors-automotive-industrial-applications/lineup/pir-motion-sensor-papirs/series/70523/model/73593|EKMC1601111]], you can detect movement up to 5 meters away.

 +===== Features =====
 +  * Optimized low-power modes
 +  * High sensitivity center for small movements of small objects 
 +  * Normal sensitivity center for larger movements of large objects
 +  * Detect movement up to 5 meters away.
 +  * 6-pin Pmod connector with GPIO interface
 +
 +

 +----
 +=====Functional Description =====
 +The Pmod PIR is designed to digitally report movement up to 5 meters away.

 +|  Motion detected pulse width  |  ~15  |  ~75  |  ms     |

 +----
 +===== Interfacing with the Pmod=====
 +The Pmod PIR communicates with the host board via the [[pmod:communication_protocols:GPIO|GPIO protocol]]. 
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +==== Quick Data Acquisition ====
 +Here is the process for getting motion data from the Pmod PIR in pseudo GPIO code:
 +
 +  - Power on the Pmod PIR and wait at least 30 s for circuit to stabilize.
 +  - Poll state of pin 1 on the J1 header to see when motion has been detected by the Pmod PIR.

 +| 5           | GND              | Power Supply Ground                                     |
 +| 6           | VCC              | Power Supply (3.3V/5V)                                  |
 +
 +The on-board potentiometer can be adjusted to alter the sample frequency.
 +
 +The %%Pmod PIR%% is an ideal Pmod to use in long term motion sensing application. As a very low power Pmod between measurements, long term data to measure motion can easily be collected.
 +
 +VDD for the Pmod PIR must be within 3 V and 6 V to ensure that the on-board chips operate correctly; however, it is recommended that Pmod is operated at 3.3 V.
 +
 +Circuit stability time when voltage is applied is 30 seconds. 
 +
 +

 +
 +===== Physical Dimensions =====
 +The pins on the pin header are spaced 100 mil apart. The PCB is 1.2 inches long on the sides parallel to the pins on the pin header and 0.8 inches long on the sides perpendicular to the pin header. Height is .55 inches on the sensor.
