Breadboard-friendly Mini PIR Motion Sensor with 3 Pin Header

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.

GND1
Pin #1 ground. Adafruit product page says there is a tiny minus sign next to this pin.
Type · ground
OUT2
Pin #2 output signal. Adafruit product page says the output goes high when motion is detected and stays high for about 2 seconds.
Type · signalVoltage · Digital output is 3.3V high/low, per Adafruit product page.
VCC3
Pin #3 power. Adafruit product page says there is a tiny plus sign next to this pin and the module has an onboard regulator.
Type · powerVoltage · Power from 3 to 12V DC, per Adafruit product page.
