Introduction

The ESP module can read the Sharp GP2Y10 Dust sensor. The general term "dust" should not fool you, the sensor can sense particles of sizes PM2.5 and above. PM stands for Particle Matter and you find more about that [here] and [here].

The input signal needs to be connected to the ADC (also referred as Tout) pin on the ESP module. You should also connect a GPIO pin to the sensor to control the build in LED.

Hardware

Connect the dust sensor to a GPIO pin and the ADC pin.
