Another guide working on air quality sensor with Senserion SPS30. SPS30 is a Particulate Matter (PM) sensor that uses an optical sensing base on laser scattering resistance mechanism technology. SPS30 is highly sensitive in particles that feed in featuring a high quality, long lasting, and accurate measurements suitable for environmental outdoor monitoring that last up-to 8 years in field.

This device has size of 41X41X12 mm with integrated advance algorithms for accurate measurements for different Particulate Matter types and high-resolution particle size binning. For more technical details please refer to the datasheet below.

On this guide we will going wire-up the sensor with the help of microcontroller, we will going to use the Arduino MCU for this demo, however you can also use other MCU like ESP32, Curiosity Nano, Nano Every, etc.
