SmartElex MAX30101 Photodetector Breakout Board

The SmartElex MAX30101 Photodetector Breakout Board is a high-performance optical sensor designed for precise light detection and analysis.

Powered by the advanced MAX30101 sensor, it effectively measures the amount of light reflected from its LEDs, making it ideal for applications such as smoke or particle detection, proximity sensing, and photoplethysmography (PPG) for heart rate monitoring. 

With seamless I2C communication, the breakout board ensures easy connectivity with various microcontrollers, while the 0.1″ spaced pins allow for effortless breadboard use.

As the successor to the MAX30105 and MAX30102, this sensor module delivers enhanced sensitivity and reliability for a wide range of optical sensing projects.
