Introduction

CO2-meter is a battery-powered carrier board designed to host a panStamp, a CoZIR CO2 sensor and a SI7021 Temperature+Humidity sensor. The whole can be used as a wireless air quality sensor for indoor spaces, where monitoring the CO2 level is necessary.

Pinout and ports

CO2-meter has two pin rows: one (P1) is used to program the on-board panStamp and the other (P2) provides some input-output pins to expand the board with more functionality.

Co2-meter pinout and ports

The current version of the board provides no way to disconnect Rx (UART) from the CO2 sensor. This means that the CO2 sensor can not be attached to the board at the moment of programming a new firmware into the panStamp module. This is solved however by attaching the sensor to the board with a female connector and unplugging the sensor before flashing a new program.

Hardware specifications

  • Size: 2.9 x 3.7 in (75 x 95 mm)
  • Pin spacing: 0.1 in (2.54 mm)
  • Current consumption: Less than 5 uA in sleep mode. 40 mA in active mode.
  • On-board sensors:
  • Input voltage (Vcc): 2.0 to 3.6 VDC
