    1. Introduction Grove - Alcohol Sensor is a complete alcohol sensor module for Arduino or Seeeduino. It is built MQ303A with semiconductor alcohol sensor. It has good sensitivity and fast response to alcohol. It is suitable for making Breathalyzer. This Grove implements all the necessary circuitry for MQ303A like power conditioning and heater power supply.

    Download Code and Upload There're two steps you need to do before getting the concentration of gas. First, connect the module with Grove Shield using A0 like the picture above. And put the sensor in a clear air and use the program below.
  • Page 8 pinMode(heaterSelPin,OUTPUT); // set the heaterSelPin as digital output. digitalWrite(heaterSelPin,LOW); // Start to heat the sensor void loop() { float sensor_volt; float RS_air; // Get the value of RS via in a clear air float sensorValue; /*--- Get a average data by testing 100 times ---*/ for(int x = 0 ;...
  • Page 9 int sensorValue = analogRead(A0); sensor_volt=(float)sensorValue/1024*5.0; RS_gas = sensor_volt/5.0-sensor_volt; // omit *R16 /*-Replace the name "R0" with the value of R0 in the demo of First Test -*/ ratio = RS_gas/RS_air; // ratio = RS/R0 /*-----------------------------------------------------------------------*/ Serial.print("sensor_volt = "); Serial.println(sensor_volt); Serial.print("RS_ratio = "); Serial.println(RS_gas);...

    According to the figure, we can see that the minimum concentration we can test is 20ppm and the maximum is 10000ppm, in an other word, we can get a concentration of gas between 0.002% and 1%. However, we can't provide a formula because the relation between ratio and concentration is nonlinear.
