Compact ultrasonic sensor with a wide, sensitive beam for indoor use, offering reliable detection and real-time calibration. Operates on 3.3–5.5V.
Leave open or high for serial output on Pin 5; hold low for Pin 5 pulse output suitable for low-noise chaining.
Pulse-width range output on MB1200. Datasheet scale factor is 58 µs per cm.
Analog voltage range output, scaling factor Vcc/1024 per cm. Buffered output for most recent range data.
Ranging control input. Internally pulled high; left open or high keeps measuring, held low stops ranging. Bring high for 20 µs or more for a range reading.

Asynchronous serial range output when Pin 1 is open/high: ASCII R plus three range digits in cm plus carriage return, 9600 baud 8N1. Sends a pulse when Pin 1 is held low.
DC supply input for the XL-MaxSonar MB1200 sensor.
Return for the DC power supply. Datasheet says GND and V+ must be ripple and noise free for best operation.
