RhydoLabz "ECHO –PRO, 5in 1" Ultrasonic Distance Sensor is an amazing product that provides very short to long-range detection and ranging with a resolution of 1mm. The ECHO-PRO is a 5 in 1 sensor module which output the distance data as Serial ASCII, Pulse width and Analog output. The module has an onboard temperature sensor which outputs the ambient temperature via Serial ASCII. Apart from this the module is also equipped with Proximity sensing output, which will generate a high going signal if any object comes under the presented distance range (2-500cm).The ECHO-PRO can operate in "AUTO" mode as well as "Manual" mode. In "Auto" mode the module automatically send the ultrasonic signal and do the measurement and give the distance output, whereas "Manual" mode requires external triggering pulsate to start the measurement.
Since there are various interfacing options (ASCII, PWM and ANALOG) available on the module as a standard, it will be easy for a developer to select the optimum one based on the resources available on the microcontroller. No need to buy and stock different modules.
