• Parking assistance systems
• Robotics
• DIY electronics projects

Usage Tips:

1. Connecting the Module:
   • Connect the VCC pin to the 5V power supply.
   • Connect the GND pin to the ground of your system.
   • Connect the Trig pin to a digital output pin on your microcontroller.
   • Connect the Echo pin to a digital input pin on your microcontroller.
2. Triggering the Sensor:
   • To initiate a measurement, send a 10µs high pulse to the Trig pin. This will trigger the sensor to emit an ultrasonic burst.
3. Reading the Echo:
   • Measure the duration of the high pulse on the Echo pin. This duration corresponds to the time taken for the ultrasonic pulse to travel to the object and back.
4. Calculating Distance:
   • Use the formula: Distance (cm) = Duration (µs) / 58
   • Alternatively, use the formula: Distance (inches) = Duration (µs) / 148

The JSN-SR04T Waterproof Ultrasonic Sensor Module is a reliable and accurate solution for distance measurement in challenging environments. Its waterproof design and robust performance make it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, from water level detection to outdoor obstacle avoidance.
