The MQ-7 Carbon Monoxide Gas Sensor Module is a high-precision gas detection device designed to measure carbon monoxide (CO) levels in the air. Using a SnO₂ semiconductor gas-sensitive layer, the MQ-7 provides excellent sensitivity and stability, responding efficiently to CO concentrations from 20 ppm to 2000 ppm. The sensor operates at 5V DC and includes both analog (AO) and digital (DO) outputs, making it fully compatible with Arduino, ESP8266, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi. It features an LM393 comparator IC and an adjustable potentiometer to set a detection threshold for the digital output, enabling easy integration into alarm or monitoring systems. The MQ-7 is widely used in home safety alarms, vehicle emission detectors, industrial CO monitoring, and air quality measurement projects. It uses a unique heating cycle method for accurate detection — alternating between high and low heating voltages to ensure precise CO measurement while minimizing interference from other gases. With fast response, reliable performance, and long service life, the MQ-7 module is ideal for students, engineers, and makers developing IoT-based air monitoring systems or smart home safety devices.
