-On-Chip Temperature: The MAX30102 features a temperature sensor (±1°C accuracy) used to compensate for environmental changes and improve reading accuracy. +=== Pinout === 
-Interfacing: Both use the I2C protocol (SDA/SCL) and are compatible with microcontrollers like Arduino, ESP32, and STM32. +Both modules share the same pin layout for common use cases
-Common Issues: Users often encounter power supply issues with breakout boards (especially the 1.8V vs 3.3V requirements). It is highly recommended to use the MAX30102 Datasheet to verify voltage levels for your specific module. +
-Accuracy: Calibrated tests show roughly 95.8% to 97% accuracy for heart rate monitoring+
  
-{{tag>MAX30102 MAX30100 Heart_Rate_Click sensor arduino code}}+  * **VIN:** This is the main power supply input pin for the entire module. You can typically connect this to a 3.3V or 5V source from your microcontroller, as most boards include on-board voltage regulators. 
 +  * **GND:** The common ground connection for the power supply and signal reference. 
 +  * **SCL:** The I²C Serial Clock input pin. This connects to the SCL pin of your microcontroller (e.g., A5 on an Arduino Uno). 
 +  * **SDA:** The I²C Serial Data pin, which is bidirectional. This connects to the SDA pin of your microcontroller (e.g., A4 on an Arduino Uno). 
 +  * **INT:** An Active-Low Interrupt output pin. This pin goes low when a specific event (such as a heartbeat) is detected, enabling efficient, event-driven programming. It can be connected to any digital interrupt pin on your microcontroller, but it is optional for basic use. 
 +  * **RD:** The Red LED driver connection pin. This is typically left unconnected unless you want to drive the LED manually. 
 +  * **IRD:** The Infrared LED driver connection pin. Similar to the RD pin, it's usually left unconnected. 
 + 
 +**Important Pin Notes** 
 + 
 +  * **Voltage Levels:** The core MAX30102 IC operates internally at 1.8V, with the LEDs running at ~3.3V. The VIN pin on standard breakout boards is designed to accept a wider range (3.3V-5V) because the boards include the necessary voltage regulators for proper operation. 
 +  * **Unused Pins:** For standard operation using the I²C interface, you need to connect only VIN, GND, SCL, and SDA. The INT pin provides additional functionality for more advanced projects. The RD and IRD pins are generally unused. 
 +  * **Pull-up Resistors:** Most breakout boards already include the necessary pull-up resistors for the I²C lines (SCL and SDA) and the INT pin, simplifying the wiring. 
 +=== Arduino code === 
 +For the MAX30102, the most robust library is the SparkFun MAX3010x Pulse and Proximity Sensor Library.
