Overview

Description

The ZMOD4510 gas sensor platform detects air quality in a variety of indoor and outdoor applications. The module is a 12-pin LGA assembly (standard version 3.0mm x 3.0mm x 0.7mm) that consists of a gas sense element and a CMOS signal conditioning IC. The module’s sense element consists of a heater element on a silicon-based MEMS structure and a metal-oxide (MOx) chemiresistor. The signal conditioner controls the sensor temperature and measures the MOx resistance, which is a function of the gas concentration.​

The freely available firmware enables different ZMOD4510 features based on traditional and machine learning algorithms with embedded artificial intelligence (AI) using the same hardware platform. This is used to determine the Air Quality Index (AQI) output, which is based on the gases present. The measurement results can be read via an I2C interface with the user’s microprocessor, which processes the data to determine the levels of gases present and to indicate the AQI based on international standards. With its latest ultra-low power mode, the ZMOD4510 is an excellent choice for detecting ozone and nitrogen dioxide in indoor and outdoor applications.

Features

  • Sensor output based on operation method:
    • Non-selective measurement of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and ozone (O3)
    • Selective ozone (O3) measurement using ultra-low power
  • Supports international standards for air quality, such as the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
  • Ultra-low average power consumption down to 0.2mW
  • External reset pin (active-LOW)
  • Siloxane resistant
  • RoHS compliant
  • Target operation temperature: -40 °C to +65 °C
  • Supply voltage: 1.7V to 3.6V
  • Water and dustproof version available (IP67 certified)
  • Available assembly sizes:
    • 3.0mm x 3.0mm x 0.7mm (standard version)
    • 3.0mm x 3.0mm x 0.9mm (IP67 version)

  1. ZMOD4510

    Hello I'm having problems compiling the 2nd gen gas detection algorithm libraries. When I try to build the program, I keep getting this same error: "C:\Program Files\Microchip\xc8\v2.36\pic\sources\c99\common\roundf.c:12:: error: (1098) conflicting declarations for variable "_roundf" (/builds/ ...

  2. ZMOD4510 warmup and timing question

    Hi, I've been running some test on the ZMOD4510 and O3 concentrations never went up from 0, so there's probably something I'm doing wrong... Our application has to get O3 concentration every 20 mins. The implementation of the firmware is done in a way that performs the ...

  3. ZMOD4510 Stopping measurements

    Hi, what is the correct way to stop the ZMOD4510 measurements and then restart? It is necessary to init the sensor and the library again in order to reset the data structures? Thanks

  1. ZMOD4510 Sensitivity to Certain Gasses & Selectivity

    ... Updated:01/28/2025 Question: Does the gas sensor have a particular selectivity and can identify a certain gas? Answer: Yes, in NO2 O3 mode ozone (O3) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) can be detected selectively. The ULP O3 algorithm was developed to selectively detect ozone. Suitable Products ZMOD4510

  3. RX Family: CK-RA6M5/CK-RX65N is used. I can only read 00h data from the outdoor sensor (ZMOD4510) installed in the same kit. Is it malfunctioning?

    The ZMOD4510 (outdoor sensor) in the CK-RA6M5 and CK-RX65N requires a warm-up time. This time varies depending on the operating mode of the sensor.It is 60 minutes when operated in Gen1 mode and 42 hours in Gen2 mode.Also, since this warm-up time is required ...
