HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor Price in Pakistan

The HC-SR04 is a 5V ultrasonic distance-sensing module for Arduino-compatible controllers, robots and non-contact measurement projects. It sends an ultrasonic pulse and measures the returning echo time to estimate the distance to a target.

Connections

  • VCC: 5V supply
  • Trig: trigger input; the listing specifies a minimum 10µs pulse
  • Echo: pulse-duration output used for the distance calculation
  • GND: common ground

Key specifications

  • Listed measurement range: approximately 2cm to 400cm
  • Listed resolution: approximately 0.3cm
  • Working current: approximately 15mA
  • Quiescent current: less than 2mA
  • Approximate dimensions: 45 × 20 × 15mm

Measurement guidance

Target shape, angle, distance and surface material can affect the returned echo. Soft or angled materials may produce weak reflections, so calibrate and test the sensor in its final mounting position. The Echo pin is a 5V logic signal; use suitable level shifting or a resistor divider with a 3.3V controller.

Common applications

  • Robot obstacle detection
  • Non-contact distance experiments
  • Educational Arduino projects
  • Prototype proximity alarms

For a compatible controller and mounting setup, see the Arduino UNO R3 with cable and the HC-SR04 sensor bracket.

Frequently Asked Questions

What distance range does the HC-SR04 measure?

The commonly listed measurement range is approximately 2cm to 400cm, although target material, angle and environmental conditions affect results.

What supply voltage does the HC-SR04 use?

The module is designed for a 5V supply. Its Echo output is also a 5V logic signal, so a level divider is recommended for 3.3V controllers.

How is distance calculated with the HC-SR04?

A controller sends a short Trigger pulse and measures the Echo pulse duration. Distance is calculated from the sound travel time.

Which target surfaces can affect HC-SR04 readings?

Soft, small, angled or irregular surfaces may return a weaker echo than a flat, rigid target. Test the sensor with the intended target and mounting angle.

Which projects commonly use an HC-SR04 sensor?

It is commonly used for robot obstacle detection, non-contact distance experiments, educational measurement projects and prototype proximity alarms.
