HG-M40/HG-L40 Series Ultrasonic Sensor Module Description

1. Module

① Transceiver(D) :
• Not only it works as Transceiver module but also it can be used as transmitter or receiver with different wire connection. Transceiver can detect from 30cm~40cm and farther since it has to transmit the ultrasonic waves and wait until it returns. However, it is possible to perceive whether objects are there or not.
② Transmitter(T) : Only transmits the ultrasonic waves.
③ Receiver(R) : Only receives the ultrasonic waves.
※ 1~2cm of close detection is available when 2 or more sets of transmitters and receivers are used.
※ In the same way, even in the case of Transceiver, when it is used as either Transmitter or Receiver independently, it can measure an obstacle as nearest as 1~2Cm.

2. Mode
① Trigger Input Mode (M-type)
② Burst Input Mode (L-type)

3. Difference between M-type and L-type.

Trigger Input Mode	Burst Input Mode
- Built in 40kHz oscillator - Always ‘Standby’ - Wave occurs one by one with external trigger pulse. - Pulse frequency is adjustable but trigger burst and duration time(approx. 1mS) are fixed. - Strong ultrasonic wave with low click noise.	- Simple structure with only amplifier and output circuitry (No oscillator). - External 40 kHz burst signal must be given to operate. (external oscillator or software is needed to make signal) - Changeable pulse frequency, duration time and radio frequency at user's convenience. - Multi channel available with CPU circuit or S/W.
