While the HEADER ASSEMBLY is not directly designed for microcontroller use, it can be adapted for signal transmission. Below is an example of connecting the component to an Arduino UNO for reading sensor data:
// Example: Reading a signal from Pin 3 of the AMPSEAL connector
// Ensure proper wiring between the AMPSEAL connector and Arduino UNO
const int signalPin = 3; // Pin 3 on the AMPSEAL connector
const int arduinoPin = A0; // Connect to Arduino analog pin A0
void setup() {
pinMode(arduinoPin, INPUT); // Set Arduino pin as input
Serial.begin(9600); // Initialize serial communication
}
void loop() {
int sensorValue = analogRead(arduinoPin); // Read signal from AMPSEAL
Serial.print("Sensor Value: ");
Serial.println(sensorValue); // Print the value to the Serial Monitor
delay(500); // Wait for 500ms before the next reading
}
Note: Ensure proper voltage level shifting if the signal voltage exceeds the Arduino's input voltage range (0-5V).
