Flame Sensor Module analog output
The Flame Sensor Module 4-Pin Analog Output is a highly sensitive flame detection sensor designed for fire detection, robotics, and safety monitoring applications. Based on the YG1006 infrared phototransistor and the LM393 comparator, it can detect flames and infrared light sources within the 760nm to 1100nm wavelength range. The module provides both analog and digital outputs, allowing flexible integration with microcontrollers such as Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other development platforms. With adjustable sensitivity, a detection range of up to 100 cm, and a fast response time, it is ideal for flame tracking, firefighting robots, and fire alarm systems.

The Flame Sensor Module 4-Pin Analog Output is an infrared flame detection module designed to identify flames and fire sources by sensing infrared radiation emitted from combustion. The module uses the YG1006 high-speed NPN silicon phototransistor, which is specifically optimized for infrared detection and enclosed in black epoxy to improve sensitivity to flame radiation.
An onboard LM393 comparator processes the sensor signal and provides stable digital output. The module offers both analog and digital outputs, allowing users to monitor flame intensity through the analog signal or use the digital output for threshold-based flame detection.
Sensitivity can be adjusted using the onboard potentiometer, enabling the detection range and trigger point to be customized according to application requirements. When a flame is detected, the signal indicator LED illuminates and the digital output pin changes state, making it easy to interface with microcontrollers and automation systems.
The module is widely used in firefighting robots, flame-tracking robots, fire alarm systems, industrial monitoring systems, and educational electronics projects.

Operating Principle
- The YG1006 infrared phototransistor detects infrared radiation emitted by flames.
- The sensor converts the detected radiation into an electrical signal.
- The analog output (A0) provides a continuous voltage proportional to the detected flame intensity.
- The LM393 comparator compares the signal against a user-adjustable threshold.
- When the threshold is exceeded, the digital output (D0) switches to LOW, and the signal LED turns on.
- The detection sensitivity can be adjusted using the onboard potentiometer for different operating environments.
