Detailed Description

• ID: micsv89
• Name: Low-power Air Quality Sensor
• Category: gaseous
• Manufacturer: generic
• Connection: i2c
• Link: http://sgx.cdistore.com/datasheets/e2v/MiCS-VZ-86%20and%20VZ-89%20rev%204.pdf
• Link: http://www.sgxsensortech.com/content/uploads/2015/01/MICS-VZ-89-I2C-specs-rev-A.pdf

The MiCS-VZ-86/89 combines state-of-the-art MOS sensor technology with intelligent detection algorithms to monitor VOCs and CO2 equivalent variations in confined spaces.

The MICSV89 comes in 4 variants, PWM and I2C in 3.3 volts and 5 volts. This library only implements the I2c version of the device.

Device output is not valid until a warm up of 15 minutes of operation.

    upm::MICSV89 *sensor = new upm::MICSV89(6);

    while(running)
    {
        sensor->update();
        while(!sensor->valid());
        cout << "co2: " << sensor->co2equ() << endl;
        cout << "short: " << sensor->vocshort() << endl;
        cout << "tvoc: " << sensor->tvoc() << endl;
        cout << "resistor: " << sensor->resistor() << endl;
        cout << "****************************" << endl;
        sleep(5);
    }
