    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 Moi,

    You can use any microcontroller, no problem. I think the PIR sensor gives only digital value as output, logic high or logic low. So I doubt that displaying intensity from 0 – 255 is not possible, correct me if I’m wrong
