Measure Distance with an Ultrasonic Sensor Module

The Ultrasonic Ranging Waterproof Integrated Module JSN B02 V2.0 is an ultrasonic distance sensor with trig/echo designed for distance measurement, obstacle detection, level checks, and basic automation. It is a practical fit for makers, students, and engineers who want reliable sensor data in embedded builds.

Key details include Measurement range: 25cm-500cm; Working voltage: DC 5V; Interface: UART.

Important: Ultrasonic sensors can struggle with very soft, angled, or very close targets. Keep the face clear and test the mounting angle in the real enclosure.
