Description :

-Uses AMS AS3935 Franklin lightning sensor IC and Coilcraft MA5532-AE dedicated antenna to detect lightning distance, intensity, and frequency within a radius of 40km
-Embedded man-made disturbance rejection algorithm to effectively avoid electrical interference from household appliances
-Compact size and wide detection range, suitable for smart wearable devices for outdoor activities and people working at heights
-Provides early warning of thunderstorms for people to take precautions
-Can be embedded in indoor protection devices for lightning-sensitive equipment to switch to backup power when lightning strikes
-Generates a pulse on interrupt pin IRQ at the moment of lightning, can be used to trigger the shutter to open for photography
-Maximum estimated distance of lightning strike is 40km, with distance estimation resolution of 1-4km in 15 steps
