DescriptionThe PM2.5 Air Quality Module is a compact air quality detection module for M5Stack projects that need fast particulate data. Built around the PMSA003 sensor, this module calculates suspended particle concentrations in the air and supports air quality monitoring for everyday rooms, classrooms, workshops, and industrial nodes. Its stackable module format keeps integration simple while the PMSA003 sensor provides real-time particulate measurements.For developers building air quality monitoring systems, the PM2.5 Air Quality Module supplies PM0.3 to PM10 particle information through a practical M5Stack expansion design. The PMSA003 sensor helps collect environmental data for dashboards, instruments, and equipment that reacts to airborne particulate concentration. With DC 5V power and a Core base pinout for SPI, I2C, and power, the module is ready for rapid deployment.Features PM2.5 Air Quality Module for real-time air quality monitoring and particulate data collection.
