AS3935 Description
The AS3935 is a programmable fully integrated Lightning Sensor IC that detects the presence and approach of potentially hazardous lightning activity in the vicinity and provides an estimation on the distance to the head of the storm. The embedded lightning algorithm checks the ining signal pattern to reject the potential man-made disturbers. The AS3935 can also provide information on the noise level and inform the...
