lamaPLC: A0221AU / A02YYUW Waterproof Ultrasonic Distance Sensor with UART communication

The ultrasonic sensor features a sealed, waterproof, dustproof probe, ideal for harsh, wet environments. All signal processing components are built into the module, enabling users to read distance directly via the Asynchronous Serial Interface. Operating at 9600 baud, the sensor can connect seamlessly to the main host or other MCUs, significantly reducing development time.

The DFRobot A02YYUW Waterproof Ultrasonic Sensor (SKU: SEN0311) is a durable distance sensor suitable for challenging or humid environments, thanks to its IP67 waterproof and dustproof ratings. It is commonly employed in DIY electronics, robotics, and industrial automation.

Key features include

• Integrated Processing: All signal processing is performed internally, and the module outputs the final distance value directly via a UART (serial) interface. This simplifies the code required for microcontrollers such as Arduino or Raspberry Pi.
• Automatic Mode: The “U” in the A02YYUW designation signifies it is the UART version operating in “Automatic Mode,” which continuously transmits data that can be read at any time without requiring a trigger signal.
• Reliability: DFRobot states that its closed, separated probe design, combined with strong interference resistance, ensures stable, reliable data output even in smog- or dust-laden environments.
