Product Description

Add magnetic proximity sensing to your smart home or robotics projects with the Magnetic Reed Switch Module. This module uses a high-quality glass reed switch that closes in the presence of a magnetic field. At Robogears, we recommend this module for security applications like door and window sensors, as well as non-contact limit switching in CNC machines or robots. Unlike a raw reed switch, this module includes an LM393 comparator circuit, providing a clean, de-bounced digital signal and a built-in potentiometer to adjust sensitivity. Whether you are building an intruder alarm or a rotation counter for your Pimpri workshop, this 5V-compatible module offers a "plug-and-play" solution for magnetic detection.

Detailed Key Features

  • Non-Contact Magnetic Sensing: Detects the presence of a magnet through plastic, wood, or glass, making it ideal for hidden security triggers.

  • On-board Signal Conditioning: The LM393 chip converts the mechanical switch's "bounce" into a sharp, stable digital square wave for your microcontroller.

  • Adjustable Sensitivity: A multi-turn potentiometer allows you to fine-tune the magnetic threshold, helping to eliminate false triggers from nearby interference.

  • Dual Status LEDs: Features a Red Power LED and a Green Signal LED that lights up the moment a magnetic field is detected.

  • Easy Mounting Layout: Designed with a pre-drilled M3 mounting hole, allowing you to secure it firmly to door frames or moving robotic parts.

All Technical Details

  • Pin Definition:

    • VCC: Positive Power (3.3V - 5V).

    • GND: Common Ground.

    • DO: Digital Output (High when no magnet, Low when magnet is present).

  • Durability: The hermetically sealed glass tube protects the contacts from dust and oxidation, ensuring a long operational life.

  • Applications: Alarm systems, liquid level sensors (with a magnetic float), speedometers, and cabinet lighting triggers.

Prototyping & Engineering Tips (Robogears Exclusive)

  • The "Bounce" Rule: At our Pimpri facility, we always suggest using this module over a bare reed switch because the on-board comparator handles "contact bounce." If you were using a bare switch, your code might see one door opening as ten separate events!

  • Polarity & Orientation: Reed switches are sensitive to the orientation of the magnet. If the sensor isn't triggering, try rotating the magnet 90 degrees or flipping it. The magnetic field lines should run parallel to the glass tube for the best response.

  • Fragility Warning: The reed switch is made of glass. Do not bend the leads of the glass component directly; use pliers to hold the lead while bending to prevent cracking the vacuum seal.

  • Interrupt Usage: For security systems, connect the DO pin to an Interrupt pin on your Arduino (like D2 or D3). This ensures your code catches a "door open" event instantly, even if it's busy with other tasks.
