Introduction
I bought this board from Aliexpress, it's a breakout board for the AMS CCS-811. The CCS-811 is an ultra-low power digital gas sensor for monitoring indoor air quality.
The datasheet can be found here.
Hardware
Pins on the breakout board:
- VCC this is directly connected to the IC (there is no voltage regulator on board), connect this to 3.3V
- GND to ground obviously
- SCL signal from I2C
- SDA signal from I2C
- WAK this needs to be low (!) in order for the chip to be active
- INT can be left unconnected
- RST can be left unconnected
- ADD can be left unconnected (?)
My board was apparently configured at I2C address 0x5A. I'm wiring it up to a Wemos D1 mini board with an ESP8266.
Software
I found two libraries:
Application to air quality monitoring at RevSpace
A sensor like this could be used to monitor indoor air quality at Revspace.
In general, we could monitor the air quality of the main room (for example).
In particular, we could use a sensor like this to monitor emissions from our 3d printers or our laser cutter.
