PIR sensors are used to detect motion from pets/humanoids from about 5 meters away (possibly works on zombies, not guaranteed). This sensor is much smaller than most PIR modules, which makes it great for unobtrusive projects.
Ground connection. Adafruit product page says to connect pin #1 to ground.
On-time delay setting input. Adafruit says connect pin #2 to ground for an on time of 2 seconds, or use a resistor divider to set delay time.
3.3V power input. Adafruit product page says to connect pin #3 to 3.3V and run the sensor on 3.3V power.
Digital PIR motion signal output. Adafruit says to check signal on pin #4 and describes the digital output as 3.3V high/low.
