What is the SGP30 that can measure multiple gases with one chip?
SEK-SGP30 is a gas sensor evaluation kit provided by Sensirion. This evaluation kit is equipped with the MEMS gas sensor "SGP30".
SGP30 is a metal oxide gas sensor with multiple sensing elements mounted on one chip.
It is highly sensitive to gases such as Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOC), H2, and ethanol, and can also obtain H2-based carbon dioxide calculations (CO2eq).
In addition, countermeasures are taken against interfering gas "siloxane" that lowers the sensitivity of metal oxide sensors. This makes it possible to achieve long-term stability without deteriorating sensitivity to gases.
TVOC (Total Volatile Organic Compounds) is a general term for formsaldehyde, which causes sick house syndrome, cigarette smoke, and gases that cause chemical hypersensitivity.
The output range of the gas sensor "SGP30" is
0-60000ppb for Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOC),
Carbon dioxide calculated value (CO2eq) is 400-60000ppm.
Communication is I2C interface, small DFN package of 2.45×2.45mm,
It features a low power sensor operating at only 48mA.
for that reason,
- Air cleaner
- Equipment for detecting and ventilating polluted gases
- IoT application
It is ideal for applications that mainly investigate indoor environments such as.
Evaluation kit SEK-SGP30 that allows you to start evaluation in just 3 steps
Step 1. Install the viewer software "ControlCenter" on your PC
ControlCenter is dedicated viewer software for the SEK-SGP30 evaluation kit. It can be downloaded free of charge from Sensirion's website.
The OS supports Windows, MacOSX, and Linux.
Step 2. Connect sensors, sensor bridges and PC
Connect the PC and the sensor bridge with a USB cable, and connect the sensor and the sensor bridge with an RJ45 connector.
Step 3. Launch the viewer software on your PC
Start the viewer software "ControlCenter" and press the Start button to start sensor measurement.
That's how the SEK-SGP30 evaluation kit works.
Since the gas sensor SGP30 can be evaluated immediately, it is very suitable for checking the operation at the initial examination stage of application development.
Application example
- Air cleaner
- demand-controlled ventilation
- IoT application
