About this item
The Piezo Vibration Sensor – Small Vertical is a compact, high-sensitivity component designed to detect mechanical vibrations, impacts, and dynamic motion in a variety of environments. Utilizing a piezoelectric ceramic element mounted vertically on a small PCB, this sensor converts physical vibrations into corresponding analog voltage signals, making it ideal for motion detection, security systems, touch interfaces, or vibration monitoring in equipment and surfaces. The vertical orientation of the sensor offers a slim profile and allows for easy integration into vertically-aligned circuits or enclosures where space is limited. It can detect vibrations in a broad frequency range and is especially effective in capturing taps, knocks, or surface movement with quick response times. Being a passive sensor, it does not require external power, and its output can be fed directly into an amplifier or microcontroller's analog input for further signal processing. This sensor is commonly used in DIY electronics, interactive art installations, musical instruments, and industrial condition monitoring systems. Its simple two-pin interface makes it easy to use in both analog and digital circuits. With robust construction and reliable performance, the Piezo Vibration Sensor – Small Vertical is a valuable component for sensing applications in compact or space-constrained designs.
