Microchip Multiple Function Sensor Modules
Multiple Function Sensor Modules are devices that combine multiple sensors together into one package. They can have the ability to measure a variety of physical and environmental conditions, such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, pressure, wind speed and so on. The sensors may be integrated, meaning the module contains all the necessary parts for the sensor to work, or they may be discrete, meaning the sensor components are connected to each other through wires. Depending on the types of sensors contained within a multiple function sensor module, it can be used to measure a multitude of environmental conditions, allowing for more comprehensive monitoring and data gathering than would be possible with a single device.
