This breakout board allow controller like Arduino to control laser pointer using GPIO pin. This is a 650nm (Red) laser emitter that breakout the power pin to standard 2.54mm header pin. This is 5V power at 5 mW (milliWatt) only. Quite easy to use, just power the laser with 5.0V or 3.3V.
Features :
- Output Power: 5mW
- Wavelength: 650nm (Red)
- Working Voltage: 3.3V to 5.0V (Better no more than 3v)
- Operating Current: less than 40 mA
- Laser Shape: Dot
- Working temperature: -10 °C ~+40 °C
- Housing: Copper
- Dimensions: 6.5 x 18 mm
Packing List:
- 1 x 650nm Laser 5V 5mW Laser Module

// KY-008 Tutorial... On then Off int laserPin = 10; void setup () { pinMode (laserPin, OUTPUT); // define the digital output interface 13 feet } void loop () { digitalWrite (laserPin, HIGH); // Turn Laser On delay (1000); // On For Half a Second digitalWrite (laserPin, LOW); // Turn Laser Off delay (500); // Off for half a second } |
