Adafruit VEML6070 UV Index Sensor Breakout

Discontinued - you can grab Adafruit LTR390 UV Light Sensor - STEMMA QT / Qwiic instead!

Vin
Power input for the VEML6070 breakout; Adafruit Learn states the sensor chip uses 3 to 5 VDC and the board should be powered at the microcontroller logic level.
Type · powerVoltage · 3 to 5 VDC
GND
Common ground for power and logic, as stated by Adafruit Learn.
Type · groundVoltage · 0V
SCL
I2C clock line; Adafruit Learn states this pin connects to the microcontroller I2C clock and can be used with 3V or 5V logic with a 10K pullup.
Type · i2cVoltage · 3V or 5V logic
SDA
I2C data line; Adafruit Learn states this pin connects to the microcontroller I2C data line and can be used with 3V or 5V logic with a 10K pullup.
Type · i2cVoltage · 3V or 5V logic
ACK
Interrupt/alert output for high or low UV signal warning; Adafruit Learn states the logic level follows Vin.

Air quality

Choose between MQ gas sensors, VOC/eCO2 indoor-air sensors, true CO2 modules and particulate sensors without treating every air-quality breakout as the same detector.

Temp and humidity

DHT11, DHT22/AM2302, and DHT20/AHT20 sensors solve the same broad job, but only some are acceptable substitutes in the same circuit.

Light and colour

Photoresistors and color sensors both respond to light, but they expose very different signals and are not sensible drop-in substitutes.
