The Fastest Shipping

We ship faster because we built our own shipping 🤖 robot.

Pi Australia is operated by Little Bird, and we go to great lengths to ship your orders, often within minutes.

You can view shipping options and pricing at checkout without logging in.

For orders over 500g (such as bulky items), shipping may cost more than the initial estimate.

We deliver across Australia, and here are the options (based on your location; view them on the cart page):

  • Standard Post: Starting at $7 (6+ business days, with tracking)
  • Express Post: Starting at $11 (2+ business days, with tracking)
  • Same Day Delivery: Available for Sydney orders.
  • Non-metro WA, NT, SA, and TAS: May take an additional 2+ days.

The PIR Motion Sensor detects movement using passive infrared technology, making it ideal for projects requiring motion-triggered actions. Compatible with both Arduino and Raspberry Pi, this compact sensor outputs a 3.3V logic signal that works seamlessly with 3.3V boards like the Arduino Due and Pro Mini, while still registering as HIGH on 5V boards like the Uno.

Adjustable sensitivity and hold time settings let you fine-tune detection for your specific application. The wide 140° field of view and 3-7m detection range make it suitable for room-scale motion sensing.

Key Features

  • Wide Detection Range – 3-7 metres with adjustable sensitivity
  • Broad Field of View – Up to 140° coverage
  • 3.3V Logic Output – Compatible with both 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers
  • Adjustable Timing – Hold time configurable from 5-200 seconds
  • Low Power Consumption – Less than 60µA current draw
  • Dual Trigger Modes – Non-repeatable (L) or repeatable (H) triggering

Specifications

  • Working Voltage: DC 4.5V - 20V
  • Output Voltage: 3.3V TTL
  • Current Drain: <60µA
  • Detection Distance: 3-7m (adjustable)
  • Field of View: <140°
  • Delay Time: 5-200s (adjustable, default 5s ±3%)
  • Blockade Time: 2.5s (default)
  • Operating Temperature: -20°C to +80°C
  • Dimensions: 32mm × 24mm × 18mm (approx)

Ideal For

  • Security and alarm systems
  • Automatic lighting control
  • Presence detection projects
  • Arduino and Raspberry Pi motion-triggered applications
Note: While the logic output is 3.3V, the sensor requires 5V power supply to operate.
