This breakout board is based on the AMS AS3935 chip and can pick up radio-electrical interferences caused by the generation of electrical arcs that are used for the detection of lightning and its intensity. The necessary connections of the AS3935 chip are accessible through a row of pitch 2.54 mm pads.
In order to use the breakout board as a lightning detector, it needs to be connected to an Arduino compatible development board (not included). The Arduino will analyze the signal supplied by the sensor and process it in order to show the number of electrical discharges that have been detected, and their estimated distance. Therefore, this little board is ideal for weather station projects or smart devices.
