Vibration Sensor SW-420 Module
The SW-420 Vibration Sensor Module is a highly sensitive vibration and shock detection sensor designed to detect movement, impact, and vibrations in various electronic projects. Built around the SW-420 vibration switch and LM393 comparator IC, it provides a clean digital output signal whenever vibration exceeds the preset threshold. The onboard potentiometer allows easy sensitivity adjustment, making it suitable for security systems, smart devices, robotics, and industrial monitoring applications.
