This circuit is a simple motion-activated LED light system. The HC-SR505 Mini PIR Motion Sensing Module is powered by a 9V battery and detects motion, upon which it sends an output signal to turn on the red LED. The LED and the PIR sensor share a common ground with the battery, completing the circuit.
This circuit features a STM32 Nucleo F303RE microcontroller interfaced with three HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensors for distance measurement and a 20x4 LCD display over I2C for data output. Additionally, there is a WS2812 RGB LED strip controlled by the microcontroller for visual feedback. The power supply provides a common 5V to the LCD, ultrasonic sensors, LED strip, and the microcontroller's +5V input, with all components sharing a common ground.
This circuit is a load measurement system that uses an HX711 bridge sensor interface to read data from a load cell and an ESP32 microcontroller to process the data and display it on an I2C LCD. The system is powered by a rechargeable 18650 battery managed by a TP4056 charging module.
This circuit is designed to measure weight using a load cell and process the data with an HX711 bridge sensor interface. The T-Display-S3 microcontroller is connected to the HX711 to receive the weight data and control a buzzer. The load cell interfaces with the HX711, which in turn communicates with the T-Display-S3 for data processing and potential alerting through the buzzer based on specific weight measurements.

Usage Instructions
How to Use the HS-S53-L in a Circuit
Power Supply: Connect the VCC pin to a stable power source within the operating voltage range (2.7V to 5.5V). Connect the GND pin to the circuit ground.
Control Signal: Apply a control signal to the IN pin. A HIGH signal (logic 1) will connect the COM pin to the NO pin, while a LOW signal (logic 0) will connect the COM pin to the NC pin.
Signal Routing: Use the COM pin as the input for the signal to be routed. The output will be available at either the NO or NC pin, depending on the control signal.
Important Considerations
Ensure the control signal voltage matches the operating voltage range of the HS-S53-L.
Avoid exceeding the maximum switching speed of 50 MHz to maintain reliable operation.
Use proper decoupling capacitors near the VCC pin to minimize noise and voltage fluctuations.
Handle the component carefully during soldering to avoid damaging the surface-mount package.
Example: Connecting the HS-S53-L to an Arduino UNO
The HS-S53-L can be easily controlled using an Arduino UNO. Below is an example circuit and code to toggle the switch:
Circuit Connections
Connect the VCC pin of the HS-S53-L to the 5V pin of the Arduino.
Connect the GND pin of the HS-S53-L to the GND pin of the Arduino.
Connect the IN pin of the HS-S53-L to digital pin 7 of the Arduino.
Connect the COM pin to the input signal source.
Connect the NO and NC pins to the desired output destinations.
Arduino Code
// HS-S53-L Control Example
// This code toggles the HS-S53-L switch every second using Arduino UNO.
const int controlPin = 7; // Pin connected to the IN pin of HS-S53-L
void setup() {
pinMode(controlPin, OUTPUT); // Set control pin as output
}
void loop() {
digitalWrite(controlPin, HIGH); // Set switch to connect COM to NO
delay(1000); // Wait for 1 second
digitalWrite(controlPin, LOW); // Set switch to connect COM to NC
delay(1000); // Wait for 1 second
}
Best Practices
Use pull-down resistors on the IN pin to prevent floating states when the control signal is disconnected.
Verify the signal integrity at the COM, NO, and NC pins to ensure proper operation in high-speed applications.
