■ The microcontroller board is equipped with
sets of digital and analog input/output (I/O)
pins that may be interfaced to
various expansion boards (shields) and other
circuits. The board has 14 digital I/O pins (six
capable of PWM output), 6 analog I/O pins,
and is programmable with the Arduino
IDE (Integrated Development Environment),
via a type B USB cable. It can be powered by
a USB cable or a barrel connector that
accepts voltages between 7 and 20 volts,
such as a rectangular 9-volt battery.
■ General pin functions – LED, VIN ( input
voltage), 5V, 3V3, GND, IOREF, Reset
■ Special pin functions – Serial UART, External
Interrupts, PWM, SPI, TWI, AREF

■ Home Safety: Gas sensors can be used to detect leaks of natural gas
(methane) or propane in homes, triggering alarms to alert occupants
and prevent accidents.
■ Industrial Safety: Gas sensors are crucial in industrial settings to
monitor for hazardous gases like carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen
sulfide (H2S), or ammonia (NH3), helping to maintain safe working
conditions.
■ Air Quality Monitoring: Gas sensors can be used to measure
pollution levels in the air, detecting harmful gases such as carbon
dioxide (CO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and particulate matter (PM).
■ Fire Detection: Smoke sensors can be used to detect the presence
of smoke, indicating a potential fire. This can be used in homes,
offices, and industrial settings.
