    hi everybody

    I’m new to microcontrollers.

    i want to interface PIR sensor with micro AVR or PIC.

    my question is that how the program can be written for the purpose of displaying INTENSITY of sensor’s detection by a number (0-255 or …)?

    which micro is suitable for this project?

    thanks

    excuse me becuase of my languge!

    Hi,

    you can use any microcontroller which has a built-in ADC module.

    But I think the PIR gives digital output (logic 0 and logic1) irrespective of the light intensity
