Thunder click (MIKROELEKTRONIKA)

Thunder click™ features AS3935 lightning sensor as well as MA5532 coil antenna. It detects the presence and proximity of potentially hazardous lightning activity in the vicinity and provides estimated distance to the center of the storm. It can also provide information on the noise level. Thunder click™ communicates with the target board microcontroller via SPI and INT lines. The board is designed to use 3.3V or 5V power supply. LED diode (GREEN) indicates the presence of power supply.

Applications

• This board is ideal for weather stations, sports equipment, pool safety, UPSs, GPSs, watches, cellular phones and many more.
• Key features
• Lightning Detector warns of lightning storm activity within a 40 km radius.
• Distance to the head of the storm downto 1 km in 14 steps.
• Detects both cloud-to-ground and intra-cloud (cloud-to-cloud) flashes.
• SPI communication interface.
• Key Benefits
• mikroBUS™ form factor enables easy integration.
• Supported in mikroElektronika compilers.
• Ready-to-use examples save development time.
• Compact design and affordable price.
