24 GHz human-presence radar carrier, level-shifted UART
The ET-S06 is built around the Hi-Link HLK-LD2410C (24GHz FMCW, presence + motion, up to ~5m), bought separately. It connects over UART 256000 baud 8N1 + OUT GPIO and is powered from 5V only (5.0–5.5V) on VIN.
Designed in Dubai by ElectroTrical — the full schematic, BOM and design notes are published below.
Good for
- Room occupancy for lighting and HVAC
- Detecting people who sit still
- Smart-home automations
